Janelle, if you find out more about this idea of "Tourettic OCD", let me know.
I was doing some browsing today and came across the Trichotillomania Learning Center web site (http://www.trich.org/home/default.asp?FC=4313165). They include skin picking as a form of trichotillomania, which they also include in "OCD spectrum disorders". The way skin picking is described there fits my feeling--very much like trich, I think.
I think I might consult a behavior specialist sometime soon, and also talk to my psychopharm about it, as well.
Take care.
