Sometimes I honestly do think that it could be so easy to stop pulling out my hair. Why? Because I just don’t have any urge to do it. Sometimes days could go by and I barely even think about it – until I stop to notice that I haven’t pulled at all lately.
What I Like About My Hair
There may be a lot of things I don’t like about my hair, but when I think about it there are also things I do like. I’m sure there’s at least something you like about yours, too.
I Wish I Could Shave My Head
Have you ever had this feeling? I get it from time to time. It’s not because my trich is so bad that I have bald patches I want to cover up – I only have thin patches that I don’t think others would notice.
Happy New Year! Will 2010 Be the Year You Stop Pulling?
Happy 2010! I hope everyone who reads this blog, or just stumbles across it, will have a great year ahead.
Thanks for All the Support
I just logged in to find so many comments to approve, and noticed that I hadn’t posted for a month. It makes me sad that I can’t post as often as I did – the truth is that I’m always so busy with work these days.
When You Don’t Care About Pulling
I know that trichsters will understand what I’m talking about when I say that sometimes you just don’t care about pulling. This means that I know I’m pulling, I even know that it can have unwanted effects on appearance or concentration, yet I don’t care so just carry on doing it.
An Apology and An Update
I just wanted to let everyone know I haven’t forgotten you, or this website. I have been very bad at keeping up with things, and in the meantime a number of comments have built up here. I’m just replying to them one by one now.
OnTrich is Over One Year Old!
I didn’t even notice it pass by, but OnTrich has had its on year anniversary! I never knew how this would turn out when I first started writing. I had hoped other people would come forward with their stories. At first it was slow, but then I started to realise just how many trichsters are out and about online, and how they all have similar, yet different, stories to tell.
Lisa’s Personal Story – Please Read :)
I’ve only just discovered that this exists and i think that it is amazing that there are finally places people can come to when they need support from people who actually understand what its like living with trich.
About This Blog
My name's Penny, and I started OnTrich (a trichotillomania blog) to try and raise awareness about hair pulling, and also as a way to help me deal with my own pulling. I'm a 22 year old girl from the UK and I've been pulling for 12 years. Get in touch if you want to chat or need any help - I love meeting people here.
