Am I developing Trichotillomania?
OCD & Related Behaviors / by BlackCoffeeTears
Last post

...See more I have been diagnosed with Tellogen Effluvium (stress related body response in which hair follicles grow weak and fall out) and have been experiencing it since 3-4 years. But lately I've been pulling out hair follicles which have been loosened due to my Tellogen Effluvium and I constantly keep touching my scalp or brushing my hair to collect out the weak hair whenever I'm stressed out. Is there a possibility that I am developing Trichotillomania? How do I stop worrying about my hair fall and stop touching my scalp?
