Suffering from strange addiction
Hi
I don't exactly knoow in what field of medicine my problem lies but I think it is an addiction
I have a stupid habbit of rubbing a piece of cloth between my fingers. I know anyone reading this will think of me as stupid but I have no other option left but to ask for help in this manner cause no one believes me here.
I'm in lot of stress and it is blowing my career. I will try to explain my problem
I just rub any soft piece of cloth b/w my fingers. I have this habit for as long as I can remember. It causes me very strong drowsiness and sometimes I feel neausia. I have lost my confidence, and my focus. I used to understand each word of a para I read only once but now I have to read anything 3 or 4 times to understand what it says. I'm always very sleepy any I get a hard time to focus and remember things sometimes. I hardly have any friends because I feel as if I'm too much immature to make friends my age.
I'm married but my husband doesn't think it is any problem and I have failed to make him understand that I need help.
The worse is that I can't get rid of this habbit. I've tried every thing I could but I can't stop my fingers
Please help me. I'm really tired and fed up of it.

And I should mention my sister also has a fabric rubbing addiction. She picks fuzzballs from a fuzzy blanket or sweater and rub them between her fingers, they used to cover the carpet of her room when she was younger and even did it in the car for a while with one of those furry steering wheel covers.
