I just wanted to welcome all of our new members! You are all so brave! I look forward to sharing experiences and supporting you along the way! Have a wonderful...
Liz, you're so funny! I am loving this strange weather...if only it would stay in a non-rain holding pattern for a few more days - that would be nice. I have...
Hi all – I just joined the group. I was lucky enough to come across the site as I searched the web for information on behavior that I've had since I was in...
Welcome mipkk! It's nice to have you here, however, I always feel a little bad that we all have to deal with this at all. We've been having a little trouble...
Just dropping in to say hello to anyone who's checking. I am going away today for a few days. Although things with my daughter's health have gotten better and...
Hi Jo, It was so nice to hear from you. My thoughts are--the urge to pull is so strong, I don't know if I would be able to honor my goal. I don't do well...
The main place I pull from is my legs and it's always a shocker when summer comes along and I now have to wear shorts or heaven forbid get into a bathing suit....
Margey, In the beginning I used to lie, then all of sudden I started telling people that I pull. That way if I had an eyebrow with a "hole" in it, I didn't...
I've never told anyone. I never even knew that others did this until a few months ago and to put a name to it, made it real, not just some crazy thing that I...
Hi Margy - well, I'm glad you joined and you're writing and sharing - isn't awesome to finally know that you're NOT crazy, you're NOT alone, and that there are...
Thank you! It's so new and overwhelming to hear everyone else stories - and yet it's very freeing I started when I was 12 and it wasn't until my 30's - that I...
Beverne left me a message and asked me to post some exciting news regarding a new treatment option for those of us with trich. There is a new Anxiety Treatment...
Long time, no contact. Sorry I sort of fell off the face of the earth for a little while there. I'm finally coming up for air after foot surgery (a little...
Debbie, I know nothing about them at all. In fact, I was thinking of contacting TLC and seeing if they have heard of them or know anything about them. I know...
OK, I'm going to answer my own questions. I contacted David Tolin, Director of the Anxiety Disorders Center at The Institute of Living. He is extremely...
Jo, A quick question. Is the support group meeting again, or are we still in limbo? Debbie ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the...
We are in limbo. Personally, for me this actually works as this has been a very stressful difficult summer so far and my schedule just hasn't been normal in...
Works for me. It's been a crazy summer for me too, and I would have had a difficult time committing to regular meetings. I'll be out in California from ...
Hi Denise, David Tolin does not prescribe meds...he's a PhD, not an MD. I went to him for hair pulling. He does behavior therapy treatment...tracking your ...
Please be aware that *occasionally* a spammer will get into the group. We do what we can, and so does Yahoo Management, to keep them at bay, but occasionally...
Would Tuesday, August 28th be a good evening for everyone? I was thinking that we could probably reserve that conference room at the Farmington Library that...
Hi - I'm down in lowest Fairfield so I won't be able to attend. M Denise <deni298@...> wrote: Sorry I would love to attend, but I live to far away. Jo...
August 28th would work for me as far as a meeting date! I hope everyone has been doing ok will their pulling and life in general. My life has been pretty...
I will do my best to be there on the 28th, but I can't guarantee it. My mother will be visiting from out of town that week. My preference would be the...
Hi Liz! Long time no hear from~ I hope life is treating you better and you're enjoying your job. Despite being on vacation, my pulling has been frantic lately...
How about the Wednesday Sept 5th or the following Tues the 11th? The 4th is my daughter's first day of college and I'd like to be around when she gets home and...
