I am really trying to stop doing it. Im 19, in the UK. I definately think there is not enough awareness of trich. I went to counselling late 2010, and stopped it for a while, but I have returned to a stressful situation, and it's getting bad again. For a while, before getting counselling, I had no eyelashes :( I used to pull from my eyebrows and then it moved onto my eyelashes. I find it easier to talk online to people about it, because it's anonymous, but a couple of my friends do know about it. I don't know anyone with it, but I probably have friends with it who I don't know about. I have had trichotillomania for quite a while now. I am really trying to stop doing it. Im 19, in the UK.

But I do it when my eyes are itchy and instead of rubbing it (because I'm wearing make up or something) I'll pull at my eye lashes instead and sometimes some come out and sometimes nothing comes out. I don't do it to pull out the eye-lashes.... or is that still the same? LOL Hm… you just made me realise that sometimes I’ll pull out some eye lashes.
