Is washing my eczema ridden hands in hot water reason enough to get psychological help? its a habit. self harm history. i have to do it 1x a day help

Hand washing: and self-harm history. See doc for eczema treatment. The skin is an organ of elimination. You may have a food sensitivity which can be lab tested. Then see a mental health professional for monitoring of your history of self-harm and to check for things such as OCD. The fact that you ask this question is very healthy. Peace and good health.
