I think I might actually have OCD with my hair...my bangs cover my eyebrows and forehead completely, and its been like that for about 6 years. And now I always have to fix my hair so that my brows and forehead stay covered. It prevents me from wanting to go outside because of the wind. I don't wanna run because of it.
You wouldn't believe how hard it is to avoid wind and windy situations. It really sets me back. I also bring a comb with me at all times so I can fix it. I've literally only forgotten my comb like three times in the past year.
I think I look way uglier when my eyebrows and forehead are showing...

Other bad habits:
Procrastination
Laziness
Lack of motivation
Biting fingernails (harder to quit than smoking)
Too self-conscious

I have a lot of girls who like me and I broke their hearts. I am deeply offended. Also, with the obvious dbag insult. Also because I have Schizophrenia.

Is it wrong for me to take so long to think of a bad habit I have? I overthink situation a lot of the time.
I feel like when ever I walk into a room people look at me and all my insecurities are laid out on the table.
When people tell me I look good I don't believe them.
I can't look at a pretty girl without having to avert my eyes as soon as she give me eye contact. It's easy to talk to the average ones.
It makes it very easy for people to tell who I like(sometimes not). When I can't hide my emotion I usually just stay quiet.
In public I am timid unless around my friends. Being unable to connect with people. Really hurts when you really like their company.
My friends even tell me if I acted my usual self around girls i'd be "pulling all the hos"

wanna jack it j o crystal

ot: i pick scabs, used to be worse tho
sometimes have a need to pop mine and other ppls pimples and zits or getting rid of an odd facial hair
i take forever in the store and sometimes i walk around with an item just to put it back later
i can lose hope sometimes and it affects ppl
quick temper but not quick to lose it
sometimes i think about things in the past, things that hurt me and it really affects my day esp if that certain thing or person is in my peripheral vision

I know.
Things used to be significantly worse a few years back.
I somehow got through it and everything now is much, much less than it used to be.

My worst habit is the fact that I procrastinate on things I should be doing and I am somewhat lazy.

@LexusTM: oh I'm not like starving myself. I'm just trying to eat healthier so I've been trying to stick to just fruits, vegetables, and meat. But every night I get a craving for ice cream and every morning I'm too tired to make anything but cereal lol. But yeah it's totally fine just hard to do.

[quote=xFaceIess]Negative memories come up into my mind and I end up thinking about them over, and over, and over..
Walking in circles, pacing up and down just thinking. At the end of it, I think that I was only pacing for maybe 5min, but I check the time and an hour has passed.
Roasting myself in my head if I remember something super stupid I did.
.. i'm trying to limit the above more, and have been quite successful lately but only because I have had more pressing current events on my plate to replace the past. Perhaps it'll turn into fuel for the negative thoughts later.
How dreary. I'mma go get tea. [/quote]

yoooo i do the exact same thing lol

I read the second line and i had to respond to this. Don't go on diets, they dont work! If you have an addiction to sugar, just slowly eat less of it, you don't have to ever give up something you like to eat.

My nail biting habit used to be real bad. I would bite them off until it started hurting. I chew on my nails but try not to bite them off now. I also like to pop my knuckles a lot.

@SoulBlade: I think it goes past self-esteem issues, but I probably do have something wrong with me.

Talking to myself/Thinking of myself.
Walking around the house aimlessly in deep thought.
Drinking WAY too much soda.

Those are the first that come to mind.
