@parus - I am new, do you mean that self help books are a trigger because they tell you what you "should" be doing and then cause you to start scratching?

@rlinstrot In answer to your question about self-help books...Yes. These type of books, for me, are harmful. Mostly it is the attitude of the author who believes what has worked for them will work for others and if their book is not helpful the reader has failed. Thus, my way of avoiding "triggers" is not reading such.
My issue.
