trichotillomania: when one pulls out their
own hair, eyebrows, and or eyelashes


My story:
I'm here on this website making this profile for any girl, or boy on here who
suffers from trichotillomania. If you do suffer from this god awful disorder, I
feel your pain. I was diagnosed with trich when I was 10 years old. I had no
idea what it was. One day I was sitting on my floor when my mom looked down at
me and noticed I had a bald spot, about the size of a quarter. We kept an eye
on it, but it just kept on getting bigger. Then, one day she noticed me pulling
out my hair while watching tv. I had never even noticed what I was doing to
myself, until she pointed it out. Ever since then I try to stop pulling, but
nothing ever works. It has been four years now, and it has slowly been getting
better, but I do notice that I tend to just play with my hair more instead of
pulling it out. Yet, even more recently it has been acting up. Here come the
bald spots, the scalp pains, and the extra stress, again.

Quotes by trichotillomania_trich

I am proud enough to say that I am 14 days pull free.
A whole 2 weeks without pulling out a single hair from my scalp. 
UGH, I'm not just pulling out one or two hairs at a time anymore. Lately I've been resulting to pulling out chunks of about 10 to 20.


Hopefully, someday, I will defeat this beast of a disorder. Someday.
You can not control your own happiness.
Maybe I wasn't made to be happy now, so when I am later on, I'll feel even better.
Lately I've been a total wreck. I have no clue what to do with myself. My pulling just keeps on getting worse and worse, which is causing me to go into a subtle state of depression. Why can't this just all end?
I almost made it 48 hours without pulling out a single hair. I was so close. I can't believe I cracked. I try not to let my disorder define me, but I'm afraid to say it does. I don't just have trichotillomania, I am a trichster. 
My mom is beginning to think that I'm becoming antisocial.
The only reason is that I can't pull in front of my friends, and pulling is the only way to relieve my stress.
Pulling out your own hair is self harm.
My goal is to just go one day pull free. Is that too much to ask?
Me: Wow, I actually feel pretty today!
Me: *runs fingers through hair*
Me: *feels bald patch*
Me: Nevermind.
