@whatpoem Thanks! I am feeling much better. It is amazing what a difference a week makes. :-)

@gmddlb Thanks for the comment. I'm glad I am here to help. No way are you alone. I am meeting new people with trich on here everyday. It really is amazing to know we all have this in common. I really wish we didn't though and we could all have long flowing locks of hair. One day. One day. I know about that wet hair thing, but I also get cold really easily. I'm hanging in there though and am hopeful.

You seem like such a lovely woman. I really love your videos.(: You make me feel like I'm not alone in this. My trich started in 3rd grade and I'm in 8th grade now. So, I've had it for about 5 years. I have the same bald spots behind my ears. I also started pulling from my crown again! I only have a bald spot about the size of a quarter there but still. Ughh. Well I just wanted to share this with you, getting my scalp and hair wet makes the urge to pull go away. It's weird but you should try it!
