Hi,

your "higher power" doesn't have to be a holy or supernatural thing. I had a friend in AA who adopted trees as her higher power. Seemed kinda odd, but what the heck - it worked and that's all that matters. Your higher power can be this group; we all know that as a group we are stronger than as a single individual. I am honored to be part of your help. Keep it up, and good luck in all you do.

Yes working from bed is the best ever!

Medfly then I guess this group is my higher power! Thanks for your encouragement.

Well look at me! I only pulled one hair yesterday and i did it before I even realised. Put my hand right down after it and was appalled at myself ha. Was at night.

Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How clever am I?!

Today I have a limit of 2 subconscious hairs.

hahaha you're cute. How was your night out with friends? You sure do have a lot of willpower.... amazing.

HUGS

Welcome to the wonderful world of Practically Pull Free, Sam! I can never seem to do better than 3 per day, but since you're trying so hard I'm going to join you!! Zero tolerance (that's what they say in the schools here about bullying!)

So far, so good!

You're doing great, Sam!!! Just one subconscious pull--that's fantastic! Keep up the great work :)

Yup, you do what works for you. I'm not sure what I believe, but I think this group is a shining example of the positive aspects of collective consciousness. I like the idea that we are linked. I bring up the 12 step thing only because it seems to work. When I found a 12-step hair-pulling group, I just stopped, cold turkey. I don't really know why. Unfortunately, they are hard to find.

Robo-hand, begone!! Lie in wait.

Keep up the goals. You are doing very well.

Hey Alex, night out was good! I had yummy frozen red vodka drinks. And thank you!

Hehe thanks accepting. I find that the onger I go without puling ANY hairs, the easier it gets.

Thanks stronger :) I will!

Thanks phoebe. I'll look into the 12 steps thing. For me, when I joined this group I was able to go 8 months pf.... so I really think this group is amazing.

So my plan was/is to gradually slide into complete pf-ness. But I know in the beginning subconscious pulls WILL most likely happen, so rather than going into the depressing cycle of 1 day pf, next day not, I was setting myself those limits of 1-3 subconscious pulls per day. I think in the next few days I'll allow myself NO subconscious pulls and I'll start my pull free. SO here's my tally so far:
Fri 13.04.12 - 3 hairs pulled (all subconscious) (3 allowed)
Sat 14.04.12 - 1 hair pulled (subconscious) (3 allowed)
Sun 15.04.12 - 1 hair (subconscious) (2 allowed)
Mon 16.04.12 - 2 hairs allowed. 0 pulled so far (2:30pm)

I'M DOING GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy, bf is so proud. YAY!

:) Thanks for the support.
