I'm new here, so I'm sorta scared. But I think this will help me, so why not?
I kinda just needed a place to rant and know that I'm not alone and that I'm not a freak. I live in a small town, and I'm the only one that's "like me", if you will. I've been struggling with trich for a year and a month now(but who's counting?) and I haven't been able to kick this habit. My parents are frustrated because they want to help me but it's something I have to do on my own. But I need to get over trich not just for my parents, but for me, too. And I think I'm ready to stop.
I recently got a haircut from my extremely talented hairdresser that managed to cover all my bald spots. But, even after a week, I discovered another one about the size of a nickel(easily able to be covered, thank God). It was kinda a smack to the face, because with my new hair style it was easier to look in the mirror and not hate my reflection, and I don't want to destroy that. So I've been white-knuckling through my urges to pull, but it is so hard and I just want to see if anyone understands. Please tell me that simeone understands, cause I feel really alone. I feel like a freak.
