About Me

Age: 38
Gender: Female

I I am Mommy to four very special kids. They are 10, 6, 4, and 2. I have been married to my soul mate and father of my children for almost 11 years. I was an elementary teacher and am now a tutor for students with a wide range of needs. I love helping others and tutoring is one was I can do that. It is also the reason I started my blog. I have lived with trichotillomania since age 6. In the past 24 years I have tried every treatment, strategy, medication, and therapy. I still pull, but I use strategies I know work for me. I do hope to overcome this demon, but its presence in my life will not keep me from loving myself and enjoying life. Everyone is fighting some battle or has hurts that we do not see. It is learning to live despight these trials that I find very important. Personally, I seek recovery while still accepting the reality of trich. There is no right or wrong way to view or live with trich. I simply blog about my experience in hopes of helping others feel less alon. It is also a form of therapy to reflect on my pulling and overall well being. I am learning to be positive and accept help from others. I can honestly say I now enjoy life and thank God for His strength which pulled me through the darkest times.
