    This is a job for your doctor. He or she will be able to offer a few ways to help I am sure.

    Do not be embarrassed or scared. You want help, go get it!

    Wow thats a bizarre addiction...what makes you do that maybe if you can pinpoint what makes you do that you can learn to stop. There must be something behind it....how strange!
    Good luck all the same though and please let us know how your road to recovery goes.
    You know my younger bro has a similar problem only completely opposite. See you cannot touch his feet...espcially cutting his toenails he FREAKS right out! Seriously mum and I have to sit on him and dad will cut them lol hes nearly 19. We know why though...he was born 24 weeks premature right and due to that had to have lotsa tests and stuff as a baby in hospital...when they ran out viens in his hands they used his feet and thats why he hates having his feet touch we think...

    Anyways thats my random contribution

    I know most people are going to think I'm off my rocker for even answering, but if this is the truth Natalie - you aren't alone.

    There is a woman in her mid 30's where I used to work that did the same thing - only she loved to "pick her toenails". And to top it all off she had a friend that did it too - so you know what came next! They now pick each other's toenails. I didn't believe it, until I saw it myself two years ago at the beach. Really strange, but true.

    If you do want help with this, then you should talk to your doctor. The two noted above don't have any problem with their feet and it isn't causing a problem for them physically or mentally - just a "thing" they do. But I think you're at the stage of being tired of this and worried about the consequences, so step up to the plate and let your doctor know. That's what they are there for. Good Luck.
