read up - I got a LOT of helpful advice there! Including what NOT to eat (certain foods make the urge worse, like sugar and chocolate)!. and J&J baby shampoo is great for Trich sufferers!. It helped me!.!.!.so much so that when I told someone I suffer from Trichotillomania, he was shocked b/c I "showed no signs of it!." I still have setbacks every now and then (which are usually my fault for eating what I know I'm not supposed to eat, or not getting enough sleep), but knowledge alone holds so much power!.!.!.no need for therapy or drugs, well, except for prenatal vitamins to make hair grow back faster after a setback ;)Www@Answer-Health@Com

well you are not alone, my 8 year old also does this, she pulls out her eyelashes out and when we tried to stop her she started to pull her eyebrows out!. She has stopped that and is back to pulling out her eyelashes and hair!. if you get any ideas please post because I would like some !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
