Those curly hairs are going to straighten out on their own, and you're doing great! I agree with the stickers! I do the goal sheet, and still use it, as the 21 days is effective for me. Keep it up, and you can keep your hands moving down!
I know, there are some bosses that I picture with bald hair, underwear over their eyes, and it makes it easier to be professional around them!

I think today (Sunday) is the beginning of day 9.

I am on the road traveling next week so that will either make it really easy for me to not pull (no computer time) or it will be stressful and I will be tempted. If I am in situations where I am feeling a really strong emotion (boredom, stress, depression, etc) its like that much harder to not pull in order to comfort myself.

Gotta keep my hand down.

Have to say so far my biggest problem is keeping myself from absent mindedly running my hands through my hair.

I have found traveling time hard - if I am tired that is....but short journeys and short busy holidays/work trips are fine...in act the only traveling I found hard was our 16 hour drive from france...but I had had a bad allergy week as well, so was struggling.....in the end I sat on my hand x

WOOOOOO! Go trish! Amazing work, I'm so happy and proud :)

I think the most important thing is to stay aware. Write a little reminder on your hand perhaps.

Definitely running my hands through my hair a lot because the knots are driving my craaaazy and Im not gonna lie, a couple of hairs have fallen out. But I feel like its more important that I concentrate on not doing the PHYSICAL act of pulling when I am freaked out, bored or stress, rather than worry about 5-6 hairs that fell out today when I ran my fingers through my hair, and they probably would have fallen out anyway if I was combing my hair, you know, like, NORMAL people do? I don't know what the TRICH GODS would say but I think I still qualify as PF.

Yesterday I had an Oh Shit moment when I was browsing podcasts to download and I felt overwhelmed by the choices and my hand automatically went to my head. But I made myself aware and put it down.

Today I had a huge Oh Shit moment when I realized I lost my bank card ANNNND I am on the road so replacing it is gonna be HARD and I hope I don't run out of cash before I can get home and pick up the new one. I had such a strong urge to touch my hair when I had that first panicked realization that my card was GONE. But I did NOT touch my hair.

I did bite off my thumbnail this evening though. Boo.

So that was Monday and that was the end of day 10.

Oooooooh 10 days, amazing!! You must be so pumped! I don't think hairs that come out while running your hands through your hair count, unless you make a habit of it all the time and do it roughly, with the intent to remove hairs. Like you said, it's like brushing.

Good on you for not pulling when you realised you had lost your bank card. Success!

I agree, I wouldn't count those hairs. You are doing amazing, especially with the whole lost-bank-card-thing! Anxiety like that is a huge trigger and you conquered it!

Still running hands through hair but still dont think i should be too worried about it....? Still no pulling. Another day down. Picking at my left thumbnail, not super great. gotta sit on my hand to avoid it

Wooo 11 days!! Amazing. Yeah when we suppress one habit, we try to replace it with another. Don't let your brain win!! Ha.

End of DAY 12. TIRED.......

12 days!! You’re doing really wonderful! you can do this :)

Hooray!!

Argh, I've been picking at my cuticles too. But pretty hair and crappy cuticles? I'll take it. :)

And 12 days is fantastic! I think once you reach about 10, it gets easier. You're almost at 2 weeks. Keep up the awesomeness! :)

back at my desk for Friday, so today I must remain HYPER VIGILANT. I totally want to play with my hair today.....

I bit down four out of five nails on my left hand but we will just have to worry about that later.

Agreed. Vigilance vigilance vigilance vigilance vigilance vigilance vigilance
