Close Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
Type: TrichotillomaniaI started pulling my hair when I was 22. I am now 36. I have noticed that when I am very stressed, I will start pulling. Sometimes I won't even know that I am doing it. I have long hair and I typically pull from underneath around my neck. 9 months ago, I pulled so much that I had two bald spots. I would pull hair strands that are coarse and the crinkly ones. The hair is now growing back. It is growing back curly. When I find myself starting to pull my hair, I force myself to stop.

- My ex-boyfriend and I recently broke up. We have been talking about the issues that we had been having in our relationship. I have been wanting to go to counseling not only to help us as a couple, but to help us as individuals. However, up until recently, he didn't think he needed counseling. He is the one who suggested we go to counseling. I know in my heart, that this is really what we need.
