Beating Trich Community Group
You mean that there is a name for IT? Im not weird? Trichotillomania, that big, long word that is the bane of our world. With knowledge and support of others we CAN break free and live without this disorder interfering with our lives. Lets keep this uplifting and supportive and give each other the encouragement the other needs to make it to that next day.
Hi, My name is Sam and I'm new to this group. I am 23 and have had trich since I was 12. Over the years I have tried many times to stop, however it's only this past year that I have started to research ways of stopping, and have been really determined to do it. I plan on doing so with a combination of understanding, will-power, exercise, trying the John Kender diet, and seeing a therapist. I love designing, illustrating, cooking, extreme sports, exercising, seeing live music and reading. I would love to provide others with encouragement, and maybe get some support when I fall.

Every step you take is building your strength in beating trich at its tricks.
I wish I had enough money to provide a common goal of Disney World, Disney Land for a trich retreat, where we all go natural, ride all the screaming rides, do scary things, and have a unique time together enjoying fun with trich!
You can do this! Thank you so much for your help, encouragement, now pick up your lip, fold it over your head, and relax! Hugs!
9 days is awesome. Those first 15 can be difficult.

Thanks mid :) that sounds great!
Alex, I feel like it's so much harder starting over than it was starting out in the beginning. I didn't play with my hair at all in the beginning of my pf last time. I just have to keep remembering to put my hands down, and remember that light tugging on individual hairs is NOT ok, even if I don't intend for that hair to come out. But we can do this :)
Phoebe I don't really focus on that big goal. I honestly don't even focus on a goal bigger than making it through the current day. That's all I can deal with at the moment.
Accepting, thank you :) I think that a goal not to touch your hair is really hard, and actually really depressing. I won't say it's impossible but it's close. But putting my hand down as soon as it's up there is what I need to try to do..
