Trichotillomania (hair-pulling disorder)

Coping and support

Many people with trichotillomania report feeling alone in their experience of hair pulling. It may help to join a support group for people with trichotillomania so that you can meet others with similar experiences who can relate to your feelings.

Ask your doctor or mental health professional for a recommendation or consider searching online for a trichotillomania support group.
