I once had dry scalp and a littel scab formed, which I picked for months!!! That thing got big and deep and I would like picking it off even though it hurt. I also have a toenail picking problem. I remember seeing my mom do this, which she STILL DOES TO THIS DAY, and I think that's where I picked it up.

Picking may be carried out in a trance like state where the individual emerges after long periods to be confronted by the results of hours of the activity. Ironically picking seems to be motivated by an effort to get things perfect especially in individuals with Body Dysmorphic Disorder.

[Archive] Picking Scabs OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) ... A few days ago I started picking again. For me the satisfaction is the feeling of separating the scab from my head.
