What have ya'll Tried?

Hey everyone,
Please tell me what you have done, thought about trying, to stop yourself from pulling. Incl meds. ?
Thanks for answers.

Hey,

I dont know if you are in a position to do it but I have heard very positive results from those who have shaved all of their hair off and allowed it to regrow naturally. I also think that wearing gloves around the house might help as this might remind you of the fact that you have trich and might then give you time to say 'no' when you get the urge to do it.

i've tried cognitive behavioural therapy which seems to work for some, didn't work for me, but i don't think i was really ready for it. hypnosis, which helped me for a short while. of course trich got the better of me... currently i'm taking NAC (n-acetyl cysteine; google it, it's actually PROVEN to help hairpullers!) but i haven't been on it long enough to tell whether it's working or not.

Ive been pulling for almost 6 years, and Just this past week i have tried nd successfully stopped completely. I finally figured out that i only pull whenever i am alone and bored So i decided to wrap my hair up and i wasnt able to get to it. It has made me realize how often i was pulling! See now how i catch my hand going up here. I also started taking hair viatims, i believe this is helping me, you should try it But everyone is different and everyones urges arent the same! Let me know if this happens to work for you if you try it!
