i know that im really late on this post but i felt like i had to post a comment on my own expreience as a viticim of this heartless disorder. i stated to pull my own hair out at the age of 8. i will be 24 on the 16th of this month. im ready to live a normal life with out this disorder! i two wonderful boys who now notice when i do it and they are now asking questions about it. its so embarrassing!! i catn live my life normal..cant go swimming (which is something i love to do) and actually dating someone is hard to do because i so nervous to let them know that the hair they do see is actually fake hair (extensions)..i have very beautiful curly hair..ppl ask me all the time why do i wear hair extensions and i have to lie and tell them that i love the full hair effect...in reality i have no hair! i went to the shop to get my hair done a couple time but that was soooooo hard to do..ppl were walkin in and then there were men in there which mad is so much harder on me...i cut the little bit of hair i had on once thinking that it will be a new start but that also didnt work...now i went through a ruff week and i dang near the whole top of my hair out...i was up till 4 in the morning doing this...enough is enough and i need support..i need ppl who i wont be scared to tell about it...i was online looking this up and i found that it is very common. im considering hypnosis to cure me of this...has anyone known of anyone who has over came this with hypnosis? i refuse to take pills...i want a more healthy approach about this.
