helloluv22, you have to admit that you are at interesting. Would you mind telling more about trich. Isn't it painful and do you think about the pain when pulling. Do you have any ideas about triggers or reasons. Did anything happen in 2021. What would happen if your hair were too short and slick to grasp and pull. Please don't hate yourself. I don't think you can be blamed.

Hi,
I'm sorry that you have this condition! That must be terrible for you. Do you see a doctor or a therapist? You said you hated yourself because of this condition. Don't feel that way. You seem like a nice, smart person because you reached out on this website for help and your comment was written very politely. That all says a lot of good things about you! It's the condition that is the problem. I would suggest that you tell God about it and explain to him that you want it to go away and ask him for help. Just talk to God like he's your best friend and he is! Prayer doesn't have to be "churchy". Although those can be very nice. Prayer can just be good conversation with God who made you and loves you.
I wish you the best. I will say a prayer for you also.

@helloluv22 - I have had this problem since childhood. For some years now I have been keeping my hair very short. It is harder for me to pull very short hair.
