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.

Trish's Pull-Free-a-Thon.... ROUND THREE!!!

BooYah

This is Trish Tolamania from trichworld if you don't know (yes, I wrote the alias trying to be funny).

I had one pull free streak last November/December, the longest one I remember having ever. Checking in with this community was such a huge help, in order to achieve that. In February I started pulling again and, after a few lame attempts to slow it down, I gave up altogether and just started pulling again at will.

Now it's July 1, I am 3 days pull free and I just want to take it DAY BY DAY and get involved in this community again! I hadn't logged in for so long, when I did log in last week, I started crying hysterically. Isn't that funny?

My main goal right now is to reach 7 days pull free, then buy myself some really expensive hair product as a reward. But I know my main reward for stopping will just be FEELING GOOD AND NOT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT IT SO MUCH!

Gotta keep my hand down. We are doing pretty good. I wonder if I have the strength within me to stay up late and fucking bang out this paper. How much will I actually get done? Must be pull free until 6.10. I can make it for three minutes.

Wow, why am I pullng my hair out now? That's right, because this paper has no thesis, and I have to hand it in by Friday, and why did my boss assign me an academic paper to write for him anyway, when what I am is a news blogger, not an academic......
