Trichotillomania Rituals #6

POSTED BY: mspennylane

There are many weird and wonderful things that people do when they have trich, but are they really so weird? I hadn’t heard of some of them before, but really they all come down to the same thing.

Split Ends: Many people sit for hours picking away at their split ends (including me) and this may lead to trich or become just as time-consuming and compulsive.

This is part six of a series of posts every Saturday on how rituals associated with trichotillomania… This can also be found at Marmalade Skies, my personal blog.

    Interesting. I’d no idea this could lead to trich.

    Well, I am no expert and I believe in some cases it could lead to trich, but in others not. In my experience general hair fiddling did lead to my trich, after having a hair braid and when it got taken out – so I imagine this could be the same with split ends. But I would also think in more cases than not it may not lead to trich. It can be quite annoying on it’s own though! Sometimes I make my eyes hurt focusing on my split ends! Thanks for the comments :)
