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.

Two days pull free.

Well 13 days pull free! Overslept this morning now feel like shite and unmotivated to work. Must. Energise.

Eep day 14! Really must keep my hands down today, yesterday I played a bit. First time really during this pull free. It's just a no no. Plus I get waaaaaay less anxious if I DON'T play with my hair.

It seems like every time I cross something off my to-do list, I have at add another 5 items on there. AAAAAARGH so much to do it's nuts! So overwhelming. And guess how I cope with being overwhelmed? I do NOTHING! Ha except forage in my hair. (Don't worry, haven't been doing that much at all, I bring my hand down when I notice it up there).

I did happen to get a fair bit done today, but like I said, crossed a few things off, added about 7 more on!

Anyway, vent over. Thanks for reading/skimming.

Breathe.

I know, those "to-do" lists are helpful, so when you mark off done items, give yourself a pat on the back, and appreciate you got it done.

Stay strong, you can do this!

Hugs, keep your hands out of your tresses!!

    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...
