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.

Hello- I am new to the group
-
My therapist really knocked some sense into me last Friday about my spending. She said that there are needs and there are wants. She said that there is always going to be cheap stuff to buy, but do I need it? The answer is mostly "no". So today, I am taking back some things that I bought online at Kohl's, namely a 9 x 12 rug and a quilt for my bed. I also bought sheets that I don't need...
And wow, that's funny! But not too crazy. Ohh pizza.
Yeah the france flight is expensive - flying from Bristol to Toulouse - it doesn't help that every holiday we have in in peak time as we have to go in the school hols, so every flight we book is always on the most expensive day. London-Paris is pretty cheap and eurostar is cheap too - but if we flew from London we would spend so much money getting to london - train is about £150 or if we drive airport parking is about £120 for the week. So better just to go to a more local airport. And we want to go all the way down south in france in the hope of getting some sun. We are staying here in april http://www.lecoin.moonfruit.com/#/le-coin/4520854409 as a reward to myself for getting through one term at work. Fingers crossed it goes well.

I have just now lost the weight I gained on my last trip to france. 3 kilos!!!
Pretty - where you're staying in France. What a great reward...
Damn you holiday weight!!
Travel is expensive, no matter where you are going.
But then again you’re less inclined to go further like America, Asia or Australia; cause it’s cheaper to stay in Europe. I’m not complaining of course, but still LOVE to go to Asia or Australia.
Ooh you’re doing soo amazing! Try not to play with those little babies, you know they don’t like it.. ;-)
Thanks lien - I must think of the children!! Oh and you lucky bitch living in Belgium. Ooh I'll just pop over Amsterdam for an hour, or Switzerland. Meeeeeew. Though I do like living here.
10 days pull free!! :) I must keep my hands out of my hair.. Past few days while playing, 2 hairs have come out. I already mentioned them to you, all at least one of them. I simply did not pulled them, but I did feel them both come out (just... Ever so slightly, they would gave definitely come out with brushing). So it makes me feel dirty. I need to discourage that behaviour. Both times I've put my hand down and kept it down.
You are doing great,You're right the only way to make it is to keep hands down!
xoxoxo
hugs
11 days pull free :) On day 12. Yesterday was pretty and I didn't play much or at all.
