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.

Hands down and love your poem!
Stay strong, six months, and party hearty at the celebration!
Bet your curry turns out delicious!
Curry was rather delicious indeed, but I got a bit carried away with the lime zest :( Hehe it'll be perfect next time!
xo. Eep I think this is the fourth time I've posted on here today. Need the support I guess.
Btw, have you heard " I'm from Barcelona" Listen to it here, I like it!

Thanks kauxfire :) It's true it's true. Eep I just need to keep my motivation up.
I won't lie, it's really hard sometimes. I feel like sometimes I only JUST win the inner battle of "I really want to pull, NO DON'T". I really do need to keep up my replacements for pulling, and find some more. You can't just take away trich and not fill that space with anything else. I need something to occupy my hands for when I'm bored, and relaxing activities + deep breathing to keep my stress levels down. That's why I am loving ashtanga yoga. It's such a workout, plus the whole thing is basically two hours of deep breathing :)
Thanks my lovelies xxx
I'm 183 days pull free :)
Eep. I assume that will get easier as time goes on.
I am home today with a cold, with many blankets and a beanie. It's wintery winter outside, yuck!
Bummer you are sick. That is such a crazy thought that June, July and august are cold for you. Can you imagine if dec, Jan and Feb were freezing cold? Weird!
Sending you some toast and warm tea with honey!
Hehe yeah it is crazy. My ideal life would involve going away to tropical islands/europe/wherever's warm in the summer months. Eternal summer. Ahhhh.
And thanks! Just had some crumpets with honey, so close. I think tea will aggravate my throat, wah. Just went to the doctor, and I'm not dying. Good news!
I am in bed watching TV too - not ill just got naff alll to do.
How are your urges today? I find mine are worse when I am ill
Hm my urges are ok. Been playing a fair bit but feel safe with it. Not that I condone that behavior!! But I'm not on any meds so that could be why.
Read somewhere that people with trich often have memory problems and difficulty remembering their childhood. That applies to me, anyone else?
October was nice in the UK when we were there, however, it depends on how the crazy weather is behaving this year. We finally got rain in Florida yesterday enough to wet down the dust, and it was refreshing.
You can do this!
My urges are running rampant tonight.. (they weren't before mrs kolo!). Bleh.
Also, I can no longer stand living in the same house as my sister. We simply have nothing in common in regards to morals, ethics, beliefs etc. We aren't talking at the moment, I think we really need to live apart if we are to have a good relationship ever. She just gets under my skin. Thank muffins I'm going away for a few months soon, and moving out shortly-ish after that.
@#$%^&*
I know I have a bad memory, I recently forgot I have something called Trich, so I can't allow myself to touch my hair.
Mooohahaha!
My sister and I are totally each other's opposite, and it DOESN'T attract me at all. We could never live together.
