Bad Pulling spell

The last few weeks I have been pulling so bad......I have bald spots and sores on my head. I want to stop but I feel like I have messed up so bad this time and I am at the point of no return. How do I recover from the devastation I have caused to my head. I just feel so bad and ashamed right now.

I have had a bad spell as

I have had a bad spell as well for the last two weeks. I am not sure I can stop this time before I am totally bald. I hate when I do this!

Hi, I have had a bad pulling

Hi, I have had a bad pulling spell too. I hope it will pass soon. I do really well for awhile and then before I know it I have pulled terribly. I feel so ashamed and embarrassed. I hope we can stop pulling soon.

Take care,
Puller

thanks for responding to my

thanks for responding to my post. If this might encourage you, I wrote that almost a week ago and right now I feel so much better. I was starting to get in a real negative frame of mind thinking why should I even try to quit pulling because I will just pull again. I am reading a really good book called "the Worry Cure"....worrying is my greatest reason for pulling. I've come to the realization that I need to be mindful of my urges to pull and that I am just not going to be "cured" all of a sudden. I am trying to get over being mad at myself for creating these big bald patches.....I've covered them with that colored hair spray and I am just focused on my urges and working on not pulling. How are you doing now?

Hi, I am so relieved right

Hi, I am so relieved right now. I have never spoken to anyone that
has trich before. It started when I was 12yrs.old and I am 38 now..
I just found this site today and I need to relate to someone so badly!
I'm tired of trying to explain this to other people...I'm sick of being in
the panic/worrying state of mind,almost constanly! So, I liked what
you said. Worrying is the main cause of my pulling also. I'm scared
because,looking back,the more I realize how this disorder is literally,
engulfing my life. I have goals and dreams and healthy motives but I
cannot seem to change anything!Also, I isolate very often..

I am still pulling but not as

I am still pulling but not as much. I wish I could just stop!!! I am glad to hear you are doing better. Keep me posted!!!
