missyeung asked: My trich was the worst in middle school. Luckily, I wasn't a scalp puller, but I had no eyebrows and bald patches on my arms and legs (I wasn't allowed to shave in middle school). I covered up my missing eyebrows by constantly wearing my hair in my face. It's been years now since I was that bad, without any medication, thank god. I still tug a little on my eyelashes, but I'm...

Anonymous asked: flinching or moving away everytime a guy goes to touch your hair, then having to explain yourself.
Anonymous asked: I've got a few that really apply to me and maybe also to others with this condition. "using hairspray to keep hair from moving, revealing the bald spots" & "not wanting to leave the house on windy/rainy days" & "not being able to play in sports anymore in case the hair moves" & "when people ask you to lift up your fringe" (i pull underneath...

paramedicsom asked: I've had Trich for about 9 years. I've tried just about every trick in the book. I've used wigs, bandanas, wore gloves on my hands, etc. I even attended an out patient program at a psychiatric ward for a couple of months. And you know the best thing I've found to stop pulling? Force of will and tough love. No pills, no tricks. This way isn't easy and I've had my...
Anonymous asked: When you see an old picture of yourself and wish you still had that hair.

Anonymous asked: my best tip is to wear paper tape on your fingers- people don't notice, and if they ask i just say im trying to stop biting my nails and i never pull when im wearing it
