    Interests

    fishing, hunting, an occasional cocktail, I'm a big Pittsburgh Steelers fan (born & raised there)

    • Close Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
      Type: Trichotillomania

      I don't have the energy to go into everything, but from what I've read I have all the typical triggers. I had emotional trauma at a young age; had a very difficult relashionship with my mother; took on a lot of responsibility at a young age, pulled my hair from age 11 till present; had to wear hats, and conceal my problem; was tormented by others because of it; blah-blah-blah...

      Treatments

      Zoloft Not Working
      It has had absolutely no affect on my condition. In fact, while on zoloft i am presently going through one of the worst episodes that i can remember.
