Does stress cause Trich, or does Trich cause stress. Or is this just some vicious stupid circle that's almost impossible to get out of? I remember starting and I've had no big trauma in my life that got me going, some people have though. How does it start, when does it end?

I think it is a vicious cycle and its very difficult to break out of it. I managed to do it last year for about 6 months. I couldnt stop the stress but i learnt other ways to deal with it such as talking and writing in my journal whenever i got the urge to pull. It was very hard to do. Ive since relapsed but i hope to overcome it again. Big hugs to you.
