Okay, well Trichotillomania is a COMPULSIVE DISORDER. Is it nothing to be giggling about. It also isn't something you do sometimes. Talk to someone with bald eyelids or bald patches on their scalp. They have this horrible addiction. You, my dear, have a playful habit.
@rachel869 You can't take it so seriously...it'll only bring you down. This video was made several years after I "recovered" from Trich. I've been through the painful addiction, the being bald, the endless therapy sessions. Please don't judge people, especially people you don't know.
@friedamour I completely agree. I was wondering why today that ive been pulling my hair out for a lonnnnnnnng long time! now I know and thanks to your video I know a bit more.
You are so pretty. I'm glad you beat this for the most part. Please don't start again. Gosh, just a few minutes of this does so much damage. Too bad hair doesn't grow faster. Your hair is just beautiful--so shiny and thick. I'm happy for you. I have OCD as well, but not trich.
You have a wonderful attitude. And, great friends. You're very lucky. I'm 44 and had trich for years. No You Tube and brave souls like your self when I was a teen. It's awesome what you/everyone else has done here on You Tube to try to educate people about this disorder. Aside, from the deep sense of being a freak. I was lucky . I didn't have a severe case of trich. But, that may have been because I was or wanted to be on the move or doing something all the time, then I wouldn't pull.
I hope you don't get like me,you're so cute and beautiful...seeing others with no hair is a good way to deal with,I had to learn it the hard way.Good luck and please stop!PLEASE.
like christine70360 said, im to embarred to tell my friends. only one friend i know has found out about me pulling my hair. acutally right now im wearing a hat. but sadly i cant wear one in school, and thats one of times i pull my hair out the most.
im 16, female and have been pulling since grade 1 :( this is the first time since then i havnt pulled. its been 13 days! sounds kinda lame but its a miracle for me! its the only thing that has helped. having trich makes u unique.u hate to admit it but its who you are,and u'll always have it to hide behind. i started really examining myself and tried to find things that make me outstanding or unique so that trich wouldnt define me anymore. Once u establish yourself as a person, your trich is gone
I was really interested in all these videos I found on youtube about trichotillomania. I think they are going to be a support in my healing process. I have pulled now for 18 years.... Thanks for you bravery and honesty in sharing with us.
ho, god, u r so cute, please don´t do this, i know what you feel, i have the same problem too, i know a treatment single but efective, if you want shape experiences with me contact with me
EATS IT!?!?? u know there was a girl who used to eat her hair and then one day she got really really sick, and she was admitted to hospital, and they X-rayed her and there was fuzzy shit in the X-ray and then she ended up having surgery and they balled out a GIANT HAIRBALL that was clogging her intestines and stomache!!! it was in the book of world records i think. Google it!!!!
hiya i am from the uk and i think i have trich i have been pulling my hair out for about 10 years now and i stoped after about 2 years as i had a bould patch but in the last 4/5 years it has come back!i pick my hair out (trying to get the thick ones_ tryin to get a root out as well then put it in my mouth and start to nibble the hair untill it is in a nice even clump and then put it on my hand to dry then put it back in my mouth! dose any one else do this? help!!
i pull my hair, bite it, and play with it in my hands. I do pretty much the same thing your describing. I do understand trust me! I have had peroids of my life where i would stop and start back. It was really based on how much stress i was going through, and how much TV i watched cause it is worse when i concentrate on anything.
I can't believe that such a cute girl like you has Trich..there is nothing much we can do except for having a strong will power..recent research suggests that the causes maybe genetic..its just the way our brains are wired
Hi you are so pretty. yes way to go. I know it's hard. I have it on m eye lashes. It was so bad that one time i pulled out all of my top eye lashes and I looked sick. They are back no. Snce they have been back now I have little spots of missing eye lashes. Oh when will it end? 5/5
But the problem is you shouldn't be watching T.V. You are very special and talented and you have all this extra energy that you should be using to be VERY VERY productive.
If you were exercising, for instance, you'd be releasing that energy and you would be pulling.
I have suffered from Trich for 8 years now. I started when I was 12 and now I am 21. It has devastated me and affected my social life like you don't even know! I completely understand anyone who pulls their hair from their scalp. IT IS SUCH A WEIRD DISEASE.
Good. I am so proud of you. For bringing like.. a third of your hat collection. Lets talk about all those hats in your room at home.. lol. I wish I could be there to slap your hand away! <333
It seems like if it's not one thing it's another. I started pulling when I stopped sucking my thumb, and when I'm not pulling, I always find some other habit like you talked about (biting my lip, playing with my hands etc). I don't know if there's any way to stop from doing SOMETHING...
I do the SAME EXACT THING with my nails!

But before you can start directing that precious extra energy in the right directions. You will need to break out of the hairpulling habit.
I can help with that too.

1. You need to break out of the habit
2. You need to learn how direct that extra energy in positive directions.
I got out of this and so can you. There are some tricks you can learn to break out of it.
