This article appears to be an attempt to describe a single, extraordinary case of dermatillomania as a new disorder—it is thus pure original research. There is nothing in the medical literature to suggest it is a real entity (fails WP:V), and the terms used throughout the article to explain it (such as "nociceptor ambivalence") are completely at odds with current knowledge.

My first impulse was to propose a merge with dermatillomania, but after a more thorough reading, I don't think there is anything in this article worth integrating into the other. Delete. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 16:35, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
