Re: Trichotillomania - Compulsive Urge to Pull Out Your Own Hair
Haha, yeah, I have this nasty habit of pickin' my butt hairs and eating the degos. I just don't want to be classified with those other sickos, that eat the hair folicles, that's just gross.

Re: Trichotillomania - Compulsive Urge to Pull Out Your Own Hair
i have a friend with this. it's really horrible. on the bright side, she has some really fantastic wigs that she switches between, so i'm glad she's found a positive in a shitty disorder.

Re: Trichotillomania - Compulsive Urge to Pull Out Your Own Hair
my own expierence with Trich came about from severe PTSD after being raped. I only pulled out my pubic hair! I know that sounds insane and painful, but it was like I would go into a trance and hours would go by and I'd have a huge bald patch. Don't worry, I did NOT eat my pubes! lmao After working through trauma of my rape and embracing myself as a survivor instead of victim, and lots of therapy, time and meds, I stopped. It's been years since I've done it now. But god, it was a really tough thing to stop doing! I think there's a big level of disassociation to it too.

i also have this disorder but mine is limited to my eyelashes. i have NONE at all left. it's hard to stop. i've heard cognitive behavioral therapy works.

Re: Trichotillomania - Compulsive Urge to Pull Out Your Own Hair
you start picking and scratching at your skin...I stopped pulling hair years ago, but I still go into episodes where I can't stop picking at my skin. It's a very bizarre disorder.  |
eating the what?
