    About Me

    I am a college student currently studying psychology because it is my all time passion. I thrive off learning why people do the things they do, mostly because I still cannot figure out what causes my own actions. I have amazing family members, friends and a boyfriend. I love all types of music, especially Michael Buble. I have also been getting back into art. I especially love drawing Disney cartoons.

    Interests

    I love psychology, drawing, movies, running, basketball, purses and dogs!

    • Close Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
      Type: Trichotillomania

      It all started in my 7th grade spanish class when I realized my entire desk and the surrounding floor was covered with hair. I am now 21 years old. I have had trich for 8 years. I typically pull from the bottom of my head or wherever there is a patch of really thick hair. This disorder has literally taken over my life. I feel like my entire life is one big lie. I appear so calm and collective on the outside but the inside is crying and desperatly reaching for help from anyone.

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
      I had to record how much hair I pulled and had to even put it in zip lock baggie for me to see! I hated it because I pulled in class and it was extremely difficult pulling out a bag of hair infront of my peers. I stopped the treatment because school was over and I was going back home for summer break. I gave up because the urges were too strong.
