I have been dealing wiht it for a while and didnt know what was wrong. When i would pull my hair my mom would yell and say "stop doing it"(lol). I do it less now. I try to keep my hands moving or it just try to scratch my eyebrows instead of pulling them. You should try it. HI i have tricho too(I pull my eyebrows).

I have trichotillomania myself and find that writing about it really helps me. I haven't stopped, but at least it makes me feel better about the hair pulling. But I do not know anyone, apart from on the internet, that also has it. I really hope you can find a way to help you with your trich - talking to people online definitely helped me.
