Probably get down voted for not being safe, but when I used to dye my hair and inevitably dye my skin, I'd pour straight bleach on my hands. I mean, it'd be in a sink with running water and soap next to me so I could immediately wash the bleach off, but it always worked for me. Of course, I works so this right after I was done dying so it didn't have time to set in

I was also told once by a hairdresser that cigarette ash works to remove dye

Those damn intrusive thoughts. I can't tell you how many things I've done and then been like "I'm so sorry. I don't know why I pushed you off of that. My brain just said I should and I didn't question it."

I've learned to say my intrusive thoughts out loud, that gives me a chance to hear them, out loud, and go, "WTF, that's crazy!" And I usually don't do the thing. Plus people often praise me for not doing the thing, which also reaffirms "good job, me, another disaster avoided thanks to my good will power!"

Update: It hasn't gotten any worse, but rubbing stuff still hurts it, (don't take that out of context) the skin is less puffy and blistery and more just dark and purpleish now. It was also my dominant hand, so I'm gonna have to cut back on the gaming for a while which is probably for the best.
