Stop them feeling ashamed: Often people with trich may feel ashamed about what they do. Perhaps not necessarily ashamed about doing it, since trichsters often come to learn that it is not their fault, but are still ashamed about what others think, about how they look, about how much time it takes up, about how they let it take control sometimes.
The best thing you can do is to show them that it isn’t really as obvious or important as they may sometimes think. People don’t look as much as they think. It doesn’t make any difference to what they mean to you. Trichsters probably know all this already in their heads but, coming from someone they care about, it will mean a lot, especially in those difficult moments.
This is part eight of a series of posts every Saturday on how to help people who have trich… This can also be found at Marmalade Skies, my personal blog.
