This is for everybody who has or knows somebody with the disorder trichotillomania! This IS NOT just about trich though! It is just a loveing place for us trichsters to feel at home...for once!
The "real" defination of trichotillomania is this: Trichotillomania is an impulse control disorder characterized by an overwhelming urge to pull out one's own hair, often resulting in patches of baldness. The hair on the scalp is most often affected. The eyelashes, eyebrows, and beard are also affected often. In some cases, affected individuals chew and/or swallow (ingest) the hair they have pulled out (trichophagy). The exact cause of trichotillomania is unknown...
Comeing from past experiences it really sucks to have a disorder that when you see a doctor about it the ask you "whats that?" and you know alot more about it then they do. There is one expert for trich IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!! his name is Fred Pelzer, I have met him, and have many books by him! He himself, not experienceing trich, can't fully grasp the intensity of this disorder...but he is the best we have got! |
