TRIGGER WARNING is this a bad sign?

Postby Abcdefg321 » Mon Feb 01, 2016 7:44 am

Sometimes I see blood, or a pink/red tip of my hair follicles, what does this mean? Will it grow back? Anyone seen this before?

It is seriuos . If it is blood . Don't do it. It won't grow back. Normally it is white and black roots.

Its so hard not to pull
I don't have control of what color the follicle winds up to be. I just don't understand why that happens sometimes.

I know especially when you stressed out. But blood can be a damage of root . It might not grow back. As I mention before I have 2 spots (eyebrow and scalp). 1 spot after ignoring it . It just stopped to give impulse to pull. But I still have urge from eyebrow . I can see some parts of my skin empty hair did not grow back . Have you ever tried leech therapy? I had very bad depressing times in 2008. My trich gave me horrible urges. I tried it . It helped to calm my urges. Those leech warms medical. They suck your blood from skin and give useful vitamins . But they helped to calm my urges to pull somehow .eventually u should build your willpower to stand against urges . I know it is very bad when urges hit you while watching a movie or when you look at mirror or studying . I read online that some scientist did a research on serotonin medication which helped to stop urges . But personnaly I never play with medication . And I got used to urges and I know how to act when brain tells me pull everything .because I have been dealing with this for 26 years now.
