trichotillomania
i can't stop eating my own hair. i know it's totally unhealthy and it's going to bring consequences to my body in the future if i keep doing it but i can't stop. i don't even notice when i'm doing it! i just do it, and it's so relaxing... it's been 3 years already

Hey, i know you posted this a while ago but i thought i would add in..I aslo suffer from trichotillomania. Ive been pulling my eyelashes and eyebrows for about 6 years now. Wow i've just relaized how long i've been doing this for. Everyone's trich is different, i don't eat my hair, but i know about thr urge to pull and how hard it is to stop. If you want to ever talk about it with someone who's going through simmilar things, i'm here!
