Hi the days are really warming up here and ive noticed an increase in wanting to hair pull. Im just wondering if that is common among others too does season changes affect wanting to hair pull with others? So far im managing not to do it and resist the urges but they are definately there and are interfering with my ability to concentrate on anything else. Is there anything that others do in warm weather to decrease the urge to hair pull?
thanks.
thanks.
