  • Hey Hey! In 2015 I decided to publicly share my experience with Trich on my youtube Channel, from there I learned I'm not the only one and It helped me become very open about it in my own life. The best part about sharing those videos was all the people it helped. I'm sorry If I have not been responding to your emails. It's too triggering for me and I hope in uploading these new videos it will help answer any and all questions you may have. I have had years between 2015 and 2020 that I have completely stopped and my lashes have grown back, but been on the struggle bus this last year with keeping all my hairs LOL !

    I’m watching this right after I pulled a bunch of lashes out AGAIN.. now I’m almost completely bald in both eyes 😭☹️ I hate having this disorder. It makes me feel so depressed.

    The small baby stubble lashes that grow back are my weak spots... I’m incredibly focused on removing the prickly areas and loving the bald clean feeling when the hairs are gone. But, when I look in the mirror I feel so disappointed in myself as I’m sure people wonder why I have bald spots on my eyelids. Somehow I remain confident in social settings. Just need to figure out a way to stop pulling for the long term.

      Consider this: when you teach a certain age, like me, 57, the ability for your hair to grow is almost impossible. I’ve done so much research and wish I knew years back what I know now. When you’re much older the follicles take much longer to heal and regrow. But with God all things are possible. I’ve been praying about it, asking God to give life to every pore where a flicker once was. God bless you, I know first hand how difficult dealing with trich is

My mom would constantly shout at me (from when I was 7 years old) and telling me that I look ugly and everyone would be making fun of me and that no one would want to be my friend etc. She has stopped the last 3-4 years talking about it thankfully. It really shuttered my confidence and still does. I can't look someone in the eyes and I don't let anyone see me without eyeliner.

      I relate so much. I started pulling my lashes around age 6 and I'm 21 now. My mom said the same things to me when I was young and it has had a lasting impact on me and also on my relationship with her. Worst thing is that she actually has trich too but she never told me what it was until I found out myself through google years later, and she would keep telling me to just stop pulling. When I was older she got a bit nicer about it but we aren't close. I also really relate to the eye contact thing, I really have trouble with that, its definitely made me more antisocial.

I have not pulled in a while and I wanted to share some things I do. I have a locket that I open and close every time I feel like doing it. It doesn’t help every time but it helps enough.

    don’t take this as hate it’s just my opinion.
    I have trichotellamania my self, for 3 years now. I’ve tried everything possible to stop. My mom has looked up every single way possible to stop, or to help it stop. Keep in mind I’m 12.
    I’ve written in journals, I’ve gone to therapy, I’ve taken medication, I’ve literally tried everything to stop. I have pulled the whole top of my head, I’ve pulled my eyelashes, my hair, eyebrows, and arm hair. I just hate it. I hate not being liked, i hate being judged, i hate not liking my self, i especially hate looking at my self in a mirror or anything. It just breaks my heart so much. I hate being stared at in public, that’s why i don’t like going to school. I always wear hoodies, i hide my face, i love being around family but i hate being in pictures because i feel like I’m ruining it, i hate being with family because i get started at, and how I’m always being looked down, or how I’m just not the person to talk to. I have a severe gaming addiction. I will play for 10 hours straight if you let me. I hate that my family thinks that all i care about is games. I HATE how i just can’t interact with my mom, my sibling, my family, my friends, because I’m so addicted to my games that i get lost in time not thinking about anything but games. It stresses me out so much. School on top of that, i make bad grades, sleep in class because I’m so stressed out that i can’t go to sleep, I’ll stay up till 2 in the morning to where i have 4 hours of sleep, the pulling addiction just gets worse and worse.
    My mom leaving me at 6-7 pm at night with my two sibling that are 1/2 and 7 STRESSES ME OUT LIKE HELL. I can’t watch a two year old and a hyperactive 7 year old by my self till 2 in the morning. I don’t know where the hell she’s going or what the hell she’s doing for 6 hours straight but i think i have clue. And if she finds this well too bad. My anxiety is just so bad i can’t handle it. I cry so often and i hate being alone even though i don’t like to talk to people, i don’t like to socialize. I get gripped at because either i don’t do what I’m supposed to do, I’m rude to my brother, i don’t “seem to care” about my siblings, and how i don’t do what I’m told. ITS HARD, HAVING TO DO EVERYTHING AROUND THE HOUSE BY MY SELF. I have to sweep, i have to mop, i have to do the dishes then put them up, i have to clean my room, clean my sisters room, vacuum, etc. My mom always says “I’m not your maid pick your own stuff up” WHEN SHES THE ONE NOT PICKING HER STUFF UP AND TELLING ME TO DO IT. I feel like a maid, honestly.
    I’m sorry if I waisted your time or if i got too into my feelings about this but this really matters to me and it feels better to just let it out instead of talking this out to someone.
    Thank you for your time.
    Have an amazing day/night to everyone
    Stay safe❤️

Everyone makes fun of me for it but I have red hair, so they think i just have really light brows (not lashes though). My family judges me too and they think I'm psycho for it and won't allow me to get therapy, take medication, or even use lash/brow growth products. I'm 13 and I have no support and my trich is just getting worse at this point. How are you doing by the way? Your comment is 7 months old, so Im wondering if you are doing better.

    I find this helpful! Self awareness is very helpful…I have been struggling with it for over 20 years… it started when I was a little girl. I not only pulled all of my lashes on both eyes I also did both my eye brows. Once had very long thick eye lashes and perfect eye brows which no longer have. I used to do it when I would fall asleep or watch tv. It end up becoming an OCD habit where if it didn’t feel right on one side to the other I had to pull it even when it was tingly…it would almost be satisfying after I finished but not satisfying when I realized there’s no hair. So using makeup everyday to cover what’s missing and would get compliments on how beautiful I would do my makeup and little did they know that I have no hair. But I am honest and do tell people yea i don’t have any eye brows or lashes and they would say wow I never even realized until you said it. I am not as bad as I used to be but I still struggle with it and have nothing but stubs here and there. Thought about getting Cosmetic permanent make up done and Micro blading. The struggle is real for sure…

    What has truly helped me is not putting on mascara. I put eyeliner but no mascara and this iliminates triggers. It's been 2 years I do not pull and I agree. Self control and working on your self love helps so much. Affirmations, as " I can do it" are so very very helpful. Jog run, walk, skip, jump anything to get the heart rate going and to release those urges. YOU ALL CAN DO IT!!!!!!!! I promise you can!!!

    I think it is weird to a men posting here, but i ended up with no eyelashes, nothing, 0, I started one or the other before, but a 2 weeks back, I just started pulling all my lashes and I finish with none, anyway, the truth is that I do not feel bad, it even feels good not to feel anything in my eyes, the sensation of pulling my eyelashes went away and what bothered me the most was seeing stripes or hairs, that feeling that later you you pull one eyelash and you keep seeing that hair and no matter how much you try to remove that eyelash, it is still there, but now I feel free, I don't see any more hairs, and I feel happy about that.
    My wife and daughters are very comprensive with me, no issues with it and I use eyeliner to cover that I don't have any eyelashes and my life goes great
    Nobody should feel bad about this, just feel good about yourself and I assure you that people will not even realize that you do not have eyelashes, just use eyeliner and that's it. :)
    by the way, you look great without eyelashes, really, and just using the eyeliner you look great

    I need helpppp. I’ve had trich since I was 11, pulling from my scalp. For two years, I stopped pulling and my hair was GORGEOUS. But the second quarantine happened and I had to quit school, it started again. Now it’s the ABSOLUTE WORST ITS EVER BEEN! I’ve always had a spot on the side of my head, easy to cover up. Now... easily half my hair is GONE and I’m literally broken inside

    I am 45 and have been pulling out my eyebrows and eyelashes since I was about 10 or 11. When I first started I would pull out my actual hair as well, but for the most part I don't do much of that anymore. I paint on my eyebrows but I have never worn false lashes. I think I like that little tickle of pain when the hair comes out and its usually triggered more with stress however I went like a year without doing it and then relapsed. And yes acrylic nails do help...I want to get them done again and maybe have someone put false lashes on for me...hopefully that will help...who knows...I have been doing it soo long that it probably won't matter.

    To see people going through the same thing as me makes me feel less alone. 😇
    I first started picking my eyebrows because they were hurting, I started picking at my eyebrows to find the peice that was hurting and before I knew it, A whole patch of hair was gone.
    I cried because my mom was angry with me and thought I was going crazy and made me take pills and Told me that I was gonna go into a crazy asylum if I didnt stop picking.
    I tried but I struggled so much, I used castor oil and grew my eyebrows back in 2 weeks gladly.
    but before I thought it was over…
    I started to pick my eyelashes because they were itching. 😞
    A whole patch of my lashes were gone in one eye.
    I’m sure that this happens when you are having bad anxiety or depression, So im thinking that i may be going through something :/
    My mom doesnt understand
    my condition, So I havent even told her I have no lashes because If I do then ill probably be in a asylum with crazy people :(
    So I watch youtube videos and do research on this condition and learned that it wasnt only me suffering this :(
    I just really pray I get my lashes back :/
    because I miss them.
    And the comments on this video really helped :)
    It made me cry but its nice to see that we arent alone! So if you have this condition dont worry you will be fine! You will grow your hair back~~
    Have a good day/night!

      I started pulling out my eyelashes when I was 5 of 6, and it's been and on/off thing. When I was 11 or 12, o stoped and they grew back so nicely then I started puking again then stoped then started then stopped and now I started again🤦🏼‍♀️. I also used to pull out my eyebrows but I haven't done that in a really long time thank God. I'm a bit depressed and stressed, so I'm guessing that's why I pull my lashes, I just started using castor oil to grow them back sk hopefully they grow back!

    I've had trichotillomania since forever. I've been pulling for over 50 years. It sucks, but for most of that time I've been able to hide my bald eyelids and brows with cosmetics and false lashes. Trich is classified on the obsessive compulsive disorder spectrum. www.bfrb.org/ Trich website might be helpful.

Also feeling paranoid because they itch at certain times of the day, and putting my mascara on, in which it might be expired or died out, then instant my brows and lashes start itching sooooo bad that I don't think about the aftermath, then I look at them and hate myself for doing it. Also my family calls me sick cause i get so upset that I pulled way, way too much and I get thoughts of burning them. I'm so embarrassed that I don't have the balls to tell my psychiatrist about it. 😪

    I think I was about 8 or 9 yrs old when I started pulling out my eyelashes. I also would bite my fingernails and pull off the dead skin around my cuticles on my fingers 😖😥 I have found out my issues was because of a traumatic daily/nightly horrible childhood! I have major depression and generalized anxiety disorder and also ADHD and OCD. I am now 50 yrs old and I go through periods of not pulling also. It's easy to stop when I'm happy in a loving relationship. But now I'm older and I KNOW that REAL love between a man and woman does NOT exist, it's all about what kinda shit you wanna put up with from someone!!! I've been hurt every single time I was involved with a man so I'm DONE!!!!!! Lol I'm ok alone I am not really "alone" I have kids at home still but it's not the same as having a loving relationship with a man ... All the good ones are either taken or .. dead .. or lost lol 🤣👌 I just deal with bald eyelids now. I wear eyeliner if I have to go anywhere. Sad life .. I try to make myself stop when I notice I'm doing it .. I have actually had to sit on my hands then I made myself get up and go cook or do laundry .. do something with my hands so they stay busy or otherwise if I sit down and scroll thru fb or youtube I'm gonna pull out all my lashes ... Get busy doing something around the house or go drive ...

      I’m not her, but I suffer with that exact problem. The first step is to calmly accept that you pulled your hair out. It’s okay. There’s always tomorrow, and even if you never stop, who cares? You are beautiful/handsome either way. Next, try to get a stress toy to have when you feel the urge to pull. It really helps. If you can’t do that or it doesn’t work, maybe put on gloves at times when you usually pull. There are gloves that can touch screens if you usually pull when on your phone or tablet. The last thing I can think of is to not expect to stop immediately. You’ll have days where you backtrack, but accept that you have those days and try to gain information from them. I hope that this helped.
