No I cant just stop...its not that simple people!

I am soo grateful I found an outlet to seek support n help for this sickening disorder. I am 41 and have picked as far back as I can remember. I do it unknowingly and sometimes I am 100% aware of what I am doing. I hate it with a passion and just want to stop. I don't understand why, well I mean stress n anxiety are key reasons why and the lack of self esteem. I am not on drugs and I just want some.relief. I am open to all suggestions. I have been diagnosed as suffering from PTSD, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and I am sure I have a lil bit of adhd! Looking forward to some.advice n suggestions. Thank you to those who reply. I want to be done with this self destructive behavior.
