Hi again,
My 9-year-old daughter was diagnosed in August. She pulls out chunks of hair when she's extremely stressed out. This only happens at home, or when we're in the car - so I know she has some control over it. (I "think" it's a manipulation tactic to get her own way).
Does anyone have any advice? I was just diagnosed myself in February, but I never pulled my hair out, as a child. We're planning to take her back to an Occupational Therapist and her psychologist for meds - but I'm hoping someone can tell me what to do in the meantime? I bet these appointments will be delayed because of the holidays.
Thank you!
