My sibling has been picking at their skin on their hands for about 3 years and my parents don’t see a problem with it. They have no skin on all of their fingers and it’s red and looks scarred and it will bleed sometimes. They also constantly are washing their hands after touching things that isn’t theirs. I have GAD and social anxiety that I was diagnosed with. I’m also sure I have health anxiety. I don’t really know what to do they are still in middle school and parents do not believe in mental illnesses because it’s “weird”. I honestly don’t think they can communicate their feelings properly about anxiety because I wasn’t able to until I was 19. I thought what I was going through since I was a kid was normal until I realized it’s definitely not. What do I do? I can’t really talk to my parents without them not believing me or getting upset. I don’t want their hands to be ruined and they get bullied at school for it. We don’t communicate in our family about feelings at all so it feels extremely awkward and weird asking about it.
