@Mrcino 1408 Usually it is at night when I cannot get to sleep, I have really bad insomnia.

I have struggled with hair pulling since I was 13-14 years old and I’m 27 now. I go through periods where it’s really bad and periods where I’m barely doing it. I’ve noticed that it’s affected a lot by how my life is going. The only thing that typically helps when I’m in a time where I’m pulling a lot is to just pull my hair all the way back into a ponytail or Bobby pins if it’s too short and it’s a reminder not to pull whenever I reach up to do it.

I’m also suffering with this! I’ve been doing it since I was 18 years old and I’m now 26 years old. I’ve also played with my hair but I’ve never took it to the extent I have the past 8 years. My hair is so short and different lengths as well as super thin. I use to have long thick hair. I’ve dealt with a lot of trauma in my life that I think has caused this but I’m not sure. But I’m here for advice! I hope you found what helped you to stop 🫶🏻
