• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Does anyone on the board have Trichotillomania, (hair pulling disorder) and if so how do you deal with it? I have someone close to me that has this and sometimes I just want to scream STOP! How do you deal with this?
I know there are people here who have talked about this. I'm sure they will pop up soon with some advice.

Hang in there!

My 9 year old has it. I had just came to post about it to see what anyone said.

Have you been to the website trich.org?
