Yeah. I rock climb as my job basically, and my finger health is in the bin most of the time…
Am I not the only one? Most people I’ve heard of eat their nails. I’m the only one I’ve ever known who chews on his cuticles.
I used to chew the skin from my finger nails a lot as a kid, not much nowdays, but still do sometimes, I doesn’t happen on its own
If having lotion in your hands makes you uncomfortable, try just putting a
Guys, they got Mouselemming
Augh, I’m okay but so embarrassed!
Just gonna add, you can use a stick of lip balm on cuticles!
If having lotion in your hands makes you uncomfortable, try just dabbing a tiny bit on the the backs of your fingernails and rubbing them against each other to spread it only on your cuticles. No slimy fingerpads or palms, and it really helps.
I used to get this all the time. Now, if I get a hangnail, I liberally drench my hands in lotion, and put on nitrile gloves for an hour or so to force it to soak in.
A family friend gets me Gojo Hand Medic, which my fragile masculinity appreciates.
I also found it works well for breaking in leather work gloves.
No! Never! What the hell causes that? Is it a dry skin thing? Looks painful and disturbing.
Compulsive skin picking. I wish I could stop, but I can’t.
For me it is biting and chewing the skin around.
When it bleeds I also drink the blood.
Yes, I’m a vampiric who selfcanibalizes myself.
One day I will evolve to Ouroboros
The clean hands club!!
The story of my life…
Mine. I can’t stop…
Interesting how much people don’t understand. So for u normies, non autistic people here: NO , the skin doesn’t get like that by its own, it’s not moisture, cream or anything, it’s just we can’t stop messing with our thingers and constantly damage the border of nails like that.
just to be clear: not all autistic people do this

Lol yeah. I stopped biting my nails and cuticles when Covid started, but now i just pick the shit out of my cuticles
POST PICTURES OF YOUR HAND
Your hands look like my hands. Have you been complimented on your lunula?
Not to shame, but uh, what, uh… what exactly were you doing right before taking that picture?
Great, now there are hands fetishists too?!
How is that in any way shocking?

Mom turned me onto corn husker’s oil. Figured since we shared genes, and it worked for her, might as well. Shit is the bomb. Tiny dab’ll do ya, doesn’t leave your hands greasy, dries fast, works fast, cheap, all that.
My fingertips split in cold and dry air. Apparently I got a weird gene from great grandma, never met another person with the problem. Tiny crack across the tip, skin dies and turns hard, splits deeper, rinse and repeat. And the pain is stunning, like having an infected splinter stuck in your fingertip. Got that shit this year working outside in February and into March. Only took a few nights of using corn husker’s oil, GTG.
My Grannie told me to lotion up and wear rubber gloves while sleeping to help my dry hands. I only did once, but I am now adamant about keeping my hands moisturized and covered during the winter work weeks. My job is messy so I don’t mind at all.
I will keep that oil in mind if it ever gets out of hand again.
Those cracks are called skin fissures.
All my life
