Why do people

[TeaKettleK]

Depends.. can be similar to nail, lip or cheek biting as a nervous habit usually related to OCD tendencies; or can be a self-mutilation coping mechanism like 'cutting'. http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/features/when-scab-picking-cutting-becomes-addictive

Thanks Tea, it certainly looks like OCD....it is very interesting!

This article here http://ezinearticles.com/?Dermatillomania---Compulsive-Skin-Picking&id=1719382 really discribe them to a "T". They acted zombie like just staring at the TV, not even blinking.

It gotta hurt! The guy looked like he got a long scratch, which at the top it healed over, faint while at each "step", it would get darker and darker until it comes to a fresh wound area.

Disgusting! I wanted to tell them to STOP...its hard not to look when the tvs are above our heads while our chairs are facing one another.
