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...
Congrats on Day 1. The biggest step in breaking the pattern.

At the very end of day 2. Wasn't even a struggle today, weird..
WOO!

I've already resisted about 5 hairs, and been up for 2 hours.
Stresssssssssss.
- Money. Lack of it.
- bf's flatmate bought a kitty and he is I'll equipped in every possible way to take care of it. What should I do? Building does not allow pets either. Bf also wants it to go but flatmate won't give it up.
- for so many reasons I need to get a studio job but I'm dragging my feet.
- mother's mental health
- grandfsther's physical health
Put the hands into motion, in front of you, to see what they do when they are in your hair.
That might help you find a way to distract the motion.
Hands busy, you can do this!
Stay strong,
hugs!
Three days pull free! Day 4.
Good job me.
Also, training on living in the present is a really good thing, trich or not, thinking less about the past or the future will lower your anxiety-level, and enjoy life more :)
You’re doing a great job! Keep it up missy :)
try not let the the cat issue get to you, its not your problem, dont bother taking on someone else's issues.. try to let that one go.. hard as much as it must be.. tap tap tap...x
