TW: Relapse

I pick at my cuticles till they bleed.
I bite my nails non stop.
I dig my nails into my skin making a little cresent moon.
I pinch my skin till it burns.

Is it anxiety?
Or is it the need to relapse?
Maybe I just need to feel the pain.
Maybe I just need to make sure I'm still real and can feel things.
