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.

I received an email from a client today which I'm so happy about, I'm trying to secure a big job with a new company, and hadn't heard back form my contact for a few days. He finally wrote back today, phew!
Inspired by Phoebe I want to start knitting (I've done it before, years ago). I'm going to get my mum to give me a refresher.. Otherwise my boyfriend's grandma can help me I'm sure.
hmm that's all.
I have just spent 3 and a half hours procrastinating doing work.. Oh dear. Been on etsy.. (Vintage and hand made items sold online). Bought two amazing pairs of boots.. Can't wait to get them in the mail!!!! Ok, now to work.
I think that design of the owls will be beautiful!
Go for it!
Another day, pull-free!
Congratulations on 103 days!!!
Hugs!
AHH i cant believe i missed the 100 day mark! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!
i mean seriously, that is a MAJOR accomplishment! so happy for you
xxxx
That's what I think Granit. Also for just when I'm waiting for whatever reason for something. Now I just need to figure out a solution for when I"m working at my laptop.... hm.
Yes Firante, etsy is the best best best. Mmm. Shipping costs me a fortune though. I bought a pair of boots for $16 and the shipping was $17. Damn! And thanks for your congrats!! :) It's funny though, the longer I go, the less long it feels like? Ok that wasn't even grammatically correct.
Well 104 days pull free! I'm being really careful, cos I know this is the mark where it can be easy to slip up. I'm trying to reinforce hands down, and improve my awareness even more. :)
It seems like many people have a thing with owls?
You are right, be careful. Hands down.
Hugs!
I don't have my conversion sheet with me, however, when I find it, I will look to see how we adjusted the counts. I know, I know, metric and standard are just a smigdeon off each other, but, it's remembering which way to go with the counts, up or down. We have two sets of tools in the garage, and I end up having to try two or three of them to find the right size.
You can do the hands down cheer- tapping the top of your legs with a rythmn. I do that now in front of the computer to help me.
You're doing great!
Hehe for the hands down cheer, thanks!! :) And for you cheering for me!
Wooooooorking. Late. As usual. Poor time management on my part, boo!
Love!
Yes, the US is holding out & not likely to convert to metric. Canada converted when I was a teenager, but is still only 3/4 of the way there. It was too late for me to wrap my head around it, but I have my metric conversion formula stuck to my pinboard. 1cm=.394in / 1in=2.54cm Plus I have a conversion widget on my dashboard.
103 days yesssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know it's not ok Phoebe .. It's weird. A good reminder for me is to let my hair out of my bun and look at it in the mirror. I hardly ever get visual urges to pull my hair. (Apart from seeing a root I guess). Looking at all of my damage and growth is a huge reminder of how much I want to stop this behavior and not be trapped by it any more. STUPID BRAIN!
Enough rambling from me I think! Wishing everyone a lovely day xo
