The compulsion to pull your hair is more common than you think.
"It made me realize it [hair] isn't important. Hair doesn't impact or lessen beauty in any way.""Beauty comes in many forms, and trich needs to be talked about more. It's not normal yet to talk about, [it's treated like] an elephant in the room, so to speak.""That you don't have to treat us differently, and it's not contagious. We just want the same treatment as everyone else.""I've had trichotillomania for a long, long time.
"There's another that has severely impacted me into adulthood. I was in fourth grade and my hair loss was extremely noticeable at that point. I had a bald spot about the size of a donut on the top of my head . I had begun to wear hats, bandanas, and hairpieces to my private school, which was against dress code so I got a lot of unwanted attention either way."
"I change my hair pretty often, not to hide bald spots or anything, but because I get bored with one style." "I was picked on a lot and called names. The worst of it happened in the fall of fourth grade. I was playing on the monkey bars with my twin sister and another friend when a boy in our class snatched my hairpiece right off my head and waved it around like a trophy. I was absolutely mortified. He thought it was hilarious and ran around with it calling me baldy, alien, and cancer girl. I just remember going home and crying and I told my mom I never wanted to go to school again.
"I refuse to be weighed down by the trauma and shame that comes with something so insignificant as my hair. I know that many other people would disagree or think what I'm saying is controversial. But give yourself a drastic haircut or buzz it at least once in your life. You'll thank me. I promise it's super freeing."What has trichotillomania taught you about yourself?worth — is not based on superficial evaluations.
