Bite your nails? Pick your skin? Pull your hair? You're not alone — millions live with body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like skin picking (dermatillomania, excoriation), nail biting (onychophagia), hair pulling (trichotillomania), and lip or cheek biting. Steady is a calm, private companion that helps you soften the pattern — without shame. There are no streaks to lose here and nothing ever resets to zero. Steady never scolds. Awareness counts, resisted urges count, and even noticing after the fact counts — because that is how these patterns actually soften.
