Has anyone tried N-acetylcysteine?

Postby MagnesiumMan » Mon Sep 29, 2014 9:29 am

I hear that N-acetylcysteine is supposed to help a lot with Trichotillomania.. so my question is, have you tried it? Have you had any success?

I'm actually researching it for other reasons.. but happened across Trichotillomania as I have tourettes and enjoy learning about other disorders and figured I'd give those who didn't know a heads up that some initial research is showing a lot of success.

Be careful and start out with a low dose and build up.. probably also a good idea to run it by a doctor first!

I would not mass with antidepressants .long term side effects unknown . I don't think everyone pulls just because of anxiety or stress .if you can manage urge to pull you will beat trichlotilomania.
