Help: Can you say 'Trichotillomania'?!


Question: Help: Can you say 'Trichotillomania'.?
First of all:
If you don't know what this is, I would like you to look it up. =)

I have this OCD, and it is destroying my life. Willpower is not an option for me. I have tried too many medicines already. I have seen countless doctors. I just need a straightforward opinion on what I should do about my illness. And I need |serious answers|. Any tips will help.

Thank you(:Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Habit Reversal Training, doctors train the individual to learn to recognize their impulse to pull and also teach them to redirect this impulse. As a part of the behavioral record-keeping component of HRT, patients are often instructed to keep a journal of their hair-pulling episodes. They may be asked to record the date, time, location, and number of hairs pulled, as well what they are thinking or feeling at the time. This can help the patient learn to identify situations where they commonly pull out their hair and develop strategies for avoiding episodes.Health Question & Answer
