Eye-pressing bad habit and how to break it?!
Question: I am severly vissually impaired. this habit is eye pressing I do it to get vissual stemulation that they crave but can not get any other way. the problem is it can damage my eyes. My parents broke me of this habit when I was a toddler. What's different now? well I've lose a lot of vision in the past two years which is making my eye crave even more. I don't know when I'm doing it but I really really don't want to damage them. So I'm 16 does anyone have any ideas on how to break the habit? thanks

Try to stay conscious of your surroundings at all times. Find the triggers that cause you to want to do this, manage them.
When you find yourself doing it, stop yourself. Put your hand elsewhere. On a squeezy toy or keyboard.
Tell yourself that you will go to hell if you press your eye
