My daughter is 9 years old and has been pulling her eyelashes out for 4 years. I've only just realised that it is a condition rather than just a habit. I have bought lots of books, and am even doing my diploma in CBT to help her. Does anyone out there have any tips?


Honey, I want to help your
Honey, I want to help your baby too! First I want her to meet Heaven a very wonderful little girl that is afflicted with Trich. She is 11 years old and has a precious soul. I think they could support eachother greatly as Heaven feels very scared, confused, and alienated. Her E-mail is bardoo25@aol.com. Tips for your daughter. Never be afraid to discuss anything with a trusted person. Pluck lint off a fuzzy blanket or old terry towel. Unconditional love is key. There is meds and health foods available out there. Andrea cosmetics makes very tiny light brown lashes that can be worn with a waterproof glue you could eventually help her apply and teach her. She will see how pretty she looks and may be discouraged to pull her own. My E-mail is raderfancan2@yahoo.com if you ever want to meet. Tell her hi for me and that I am praying for her and you to find the answers you need. God bless. And best wishes in your quest. Don't forget Heaven!!! She is an angel. She came to me for help right away. :-)

My name is Robyn. I'm 28 and have been pulling out my eyelashes and eyebrows since I was 8. The best advice I could give is let her know you love her unconditionally, with or without eyelashes. my parents were very supportive but thought I just had a bad habit. It took going to counseling to be able to accept people's love. Taking her to counseling may help, but I would make sure she knows she's a wonderful person even if she can't stop pulling them out. Good luck!
