Close Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
Type: Trichotillomania

For my daughter. She's been suffering with Trichotillomania for nearly a year. Her anxiety is severe. I want so much for her to be better...

Treatments

Prozac Not Working

Really didnt see any improvement and she was tired all the time.

Celexa Somewhat Helpful

Helped with the anxiety but caused her to be unable to sleep at night. We are weaning her off of it now.

Melatonin Working / Worked

This has been very helpful for her to help her sleep at night but not enough to offset the Celexa.

Psychotherapy Working / Worked

Has been helpful for her.

Hypnotherapy Working / Worked

This was really nice for her very calming. The therapist even gave us a recording of one of her hypnosis sessions for her to listen to at night or whenever she is feeling anxious or distraught.
