[Blindtlk] Eye Pressing

[Kelby Carlson]

Usually I end up doing it when I'm either (a) bored or (b) on the 
phone.  It may also happen when I'm stressed, but I'm not quite 
sure.

Hello, Kelby,
	My question is, do you know when you do it more? What I mean
is, are you stressed, annoyed, or nervous when you find yourself
pressing on your eyes?

Sincerely,
Jasmine

Okay, everybody.  It's time for me to admit an embarrassing
confession, and to ask an equally embarrassing confession.  I
have struggled with the habit of eye pressing or poking since I
was just a baby, and it's still an issue to this day.  I'm in
college and would really like to get it cleared for good.  It's
much better than when I was little (back then it would interfere
with things socially, now it's intermitent and rarely commented
on.) I have LCA, and I have heard some other people with that
particular genetic condition say it is also a problem.  Does
anyone have any strategies to recommend for ridding myself of
what remains of this admittedly annoying habit?
