It all started one year ago when I had ocd with how pointy my nose was, because once I realized I could see my nose at all times I got really bothered and started trying to pull it to make it less pointy. "I know, I'm so so weird." Eventually I guess my nose got swollen because it wasn't as pointy anymore, but after that I just kept doing it as a nervous habbit, and now I've finally noticed I was doing it and stopped because now it's obviously.. big. Is this how a swollen nose looks?
