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.

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...
100 hairs, sigh, I recognize this one...here's to success, one way or another!
I got a rating of 2 for yesterday :) -- S:1, C:3 :( It's hormone time again!
Stay strong! You can do this!
A 3 for yesterday. Was on a 1 all day (2 sub hairs) then later in the evening I went one little "baby very loose hairs" pulling spree. I blame sugar and also gin (alcohol always makes me not care so much about being pull free).
My brother wrote me a note to tell me that I have to make the pain less comfortable and gave me a meditation idea to use, so I'll let you know how that goes.
You can do this! Stay strong!
It's annoying Manda, but much much better than pulling all day.
I have noticed that in the evening, is when the ... is most strange sensations. So, knowing I'm not the only one, sigh, gives me hope that together we will make it through!
Hugs instead of tugs!
Enjoy your weekend xx
Wow mrs kolo, I don't think I could handle going out every night. As an introvert, that sounds horrible to me! But it's a good idea.
Ah, I got a 5 for yesterday and a 4 for the day before. Boo.
5 hairs pulled so far today, it's 11am.
