CAUSES: HOLISTIC CAUSESThe Critical Mother and FatherBrought Us Up To Be Perfectionists Body SyndromesThere was a point in my life when I broke up with my first love. I was about 22-23 in college and single. I was living at home with my parents and was also having really serious problems with them. So it was a very bad period of my life. I had a huge painful zit on my chin. It was pretty late at night and my car was in the shop and I remember pleading with my father if I could borrow his car to go to an all night pharmacy to get some ‘boil ease’ cream. And he was really cruel and would not let me borrow his car, even though I was crying and begging.I know I had started ‘working’ on my skin by that point. It started becoming an issue and a problem then, and something I had to start covering up. The issue of the obsessive picker is twofold, there is the physical level – the actual breakouts - and then there is the desire to do something about them. So many times we feel a need into display a perfect façade to the world. The media advertises a way of life where happiness depends on having the perfect body, the perfect family, the perfect home, the perfect life. How our parents teach us to deal with life's imperfections is pivotal for how we respond to them when they happen. As I began to uncover my own tendencies to pick I found that my head needed to understand what my skin is doing. My head didn’t believe my skin knew how to take care of itself… so thus I began my own intervention. My proof was that it broke out in the first place. What I couldn't see towards the beginning of my obsession was that the problem was way more than skin deep. I started to create my own vicious cycle. As I began to look more and more closely for the imperfections of my skin and try to 'fix' them, I created more and more problematic skin.
