Trichotillomania Research at Duke Trichotillomania Study Participation Information Sources and Support Groups What is Trichotillomania? Trichotillomania is a medical disorder in which people pull their hair out, resulting in noticeable hair loss. Hair may be pulled from different sites on the body, and is often pulled during times of sedentary or quiet activities. People with trichotillomania often experience a sense of tension before pulling their hair or while resisting pulling, and then feel a sense of gratification, pleasure, or release of tension when pulling their hair. Contrary to some myths, trichotillomania is not “just a bad habit” and people cannot “just stop it if they really want to.” Trichotillomania may have serious complications, including tooth enamel erosion, stomach, or intestinal problems (from chewing on or swallowing hairs) and often leads to feelings of shame, embarrassment, and social isolation. Trichotillomania is frequently associated with other psychiatric disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or personality disorders. While the incidence of trichotillomania has not been clearly established, it may affect up to 4% of the population. Treatment for trichotillomania may involve psychotherapy, medication, or a combination of both. The cause of trichotillomania is not known. Some studies have found that relatives of people with trichotillomania have an increased chance to have trichotillomania. This tendency suggests that there may be a genetic influence or cause for trichotillomania. Further research is necessary to understand whether trichotillomania has a genetic component.

    Extractions: Author's name withheld for privacy reasons) I want to share with you and anyone else who wishes to learn an exciting experience I had on the 24th of August last weekend. I attended and was one of the organizers of this years annual Trichotillomania Retreat membership conference in Massachusetts. Each year adults and children gather in a camp setting to attend educational and experiential workshops on TTM. We laugh, cry, experience, swim, share and heal. It is the most important healing experience in the Trich. community. During breakfast Sunday morning a lady came up and asked me to talk to a participant who had been crying since she registered on Saturday. This person was scared the depressed woman was going to harm herself. I introduced myself and asked if I could attend a workshop with her. We went to one workshop and she continued to cry from the moment I met her through the workshop. I asked if I could see her privately to talk with her. We went back to her cabin and talked. She told me no therapy or medications had helped. She picked her face for hours a day and was up till 3 am most nights stuck picking and staring in the mirror. Her arms were weak. She had been picking most of Saturday night since arriving at the retreat. I asked if I could try my energy balancing work. I corrected a massive psychological reversal and gave her her correction for reversal to stop picking "Even if I never stop picking for the rest of my life and am scared forever", I then helped her elicit her picking urge by staring in her pocket mirror. She got it up to a 5 and we used the CB, UE, CB, UA, CB, 9 gamut and repeat with one mini reversal. She could not elicit the urge after two treatments. She reported her depression gone. She was in shock.

To learn more about "The OCD Workbook" and order a copy, click here Trichotillomania (TTM) is characterized by chronic, repetitive pulling of bodily hair. The sites of hair pulling include the scalp, eyelashes, eyebrows, axillary, body, and pubic area. Hair pulling tends to occur in episodes, exacerbated by stress, or sometimes by relaxation (when reading a book or watching television, for example). All other causes of hair loss, including medical and dermatological problems, must be considered and ruled out before the diagnosis of trichotillomania is confirmed. People with TTM experience an increasing sense of tension immediately before pulling out a hair or when attempting to resist hair-pulling. When the hair is pulled, they experience immediate feelings of pleasure, gratification, and relief. Once thought to be rare with a prevalence of only .05 percent to .6 percent, recent studies estimate a prevalence of 2 percent to 3 percent of the population (Keuthen, 1998). As with OCD, people with TTM are often highly secretive about their symptoms. They may hide their symptoms by pulling hair from areas not easily visible or wear wigs or hair styles that conceal the areas where their hair is pulled.
