trichotillomania - hair pulling - any of your kids do this?

[Guest guest]

Arggh, one more thing to worry about - my boy looks like a franciscan

monk, having pulled the back of his head's hair completely out - been

going on for months. Just realised this is actually quite a serious and

common disorder called trichotillomania and is caused by stress and

anxiety and considered self harm!!

Ahh, the joys of autism, gut probs, eyesight problems, eating problems,

skin problems, learning problems, etc and now this.

As its considered a psych disorder, no doubt i will get blamed for

this.

anyone know much about it?

thanks people - HOPE CHRISTMAS WAS GREAT FOR EVERYONE
