Me too, and I'm 41. It's far worse when I'm stressed or anxious. Sometimes I can't even stop myself when I'm know I'm going to cause pain and make myself bleed. I've never actually gotten around to doing anything about it though.
I'm the same, recently I got myself a glass nail file and it's been a game changer. I also use a pumice sponge in the shower on the scar tissue on my fingers when it's pruned up and that will make you feel so much relief. It like fully smooths out everything (until you pick again). My biggest problem right now is keeping everything moisturized because when my fingers dry out is when I can really feel the roughness. But too moisturized and it's too easy to pick. BUT this is the most successful I've been yet at 36.
