I’ve been dreading reading comments today, but after checking them I have a big smile on my face ❤️ Thank you for the kind words & love, I’m so touched I’ve already read so many comments from people going through similar things, so I know I made the right decision Thank you ❤️
I have a friend who has recently started pulling out her hair from anxiety. She used to tear at her skin instead. I’m hoping that this video helps make her feel less alone. Thank you for sharing, Clare.
Don’t know if it will help your friend to know that she’s not alone, but I also have a moderate form of this that has developed recently, also to do with the skin. My GP knows about it, too. I have pretty big scabs that I pick and pick, and I’m worse than Nanny is with what she is like with biting her nails, and the thing is I also bite my nails. It’s definitely an OCD and anxiety thing.
Yea, if she doesn't love her hair long or if it wasn't for her hair's salvation, I can see her rocking that shaved hair. I could imagine her nailing that shave hair like a badass main character 💜💜
Go on Clare don’t be scared you rock that shaved hair like no one has rocked shaved hair before don’t care about what people say just ingnore them go on go on Clare you go girl
I get what you are saying but it's built into the back of brain.. like me I was body shamed all my life.. so I get where she coming from. I always think ppl are talking to me when they are not..it's also like nail bitters.. ppl sometimes get fake nails because of it...keep strong Clare.. we love you..
As someone with dermatillomania, it is comforting to know that there are other people like you who also struggle with body focused repetitive behaviors
I have this too since I was really little and it flared back up super badly when lock down happened. It's kinda comforting to know I'm not the only person that does it cuz I always felt so grossed out by myself but I can't stop it so it's a bad cycle.
Yes I also have this when my anxiety gets the better of me or when im nervous or when im bored. I cant say why I do it but I do. I used to bite my fingernails. Im glad claire made this video it helps.
I think I have dermatillomania too. I'm 25 now and since high school I've been picking at my lips and the corners of my mouth and the scars would go very far up my face and turn black. I also bit my fingernails and the skin at the tip of my finger. I pulled my hair out only sometimes when I would get extremely stressed.
Thick hair, thin hair, no hair, extensions, wigs, permanent wigs, you are so gorgeous and I'm so glad you made this video. I love you no matter what. ❤
Hi Clare. My heart goes out to you. I've had trichotillomania since I was 11. I never pulled my head hair but I pulled/plucked everything else. I'm 39 now and am able to better manage it. I know this video is a year or so old but I wanted to thank you for being brave and sharing your experience. I hope many struggling with trich find your video. Much love ❤
Guys can we have a little more of supporting Clare in the comments instead of requesting for videos? Edit: Btw Clare I love you so much! Don’t let people get you down! We love you and we all care about you!
I am watching this in 2022 just because it makes me feel great because she was so courageous and brave to make this video. It just makes me feel like I can do anything!
okay i know im here a year later and you probably will not read this comment but i have trichotillomania and i didn't realize it was a thing and this has helped me so much bc i've felt like a freak for years now and you seriously helped me so much with feeling less like one and im so proud of you for speaking about it bc i know it's not easy to tell anyone especially not a bunch of people
I didn't know this was a thing till I watched this and I realized that I also pull my hair and I hated how I do it I hate how I look so proud of you Clare and who I am replying to imma stop know thx so much Clare we all love you to bits ps. Your wigs are awsome
I don’t have trichotillomania, but I have something similar, I don’t know the name but I pick at my skin, and it is so hard to cope with being in middle school and having soars on my arms. This video and comment helped me so much, I know I don’t have the same experience, but it still helped a lot. Thank you.
I never noticed you wore wigs, my brother deals with this so I understand don't worry about wearing wigs haters are haters and they don't deserve your sadness.
I know I'm late but my friend has the same disorder and she is watching this with me and is in literal tears because she has found someone who has the same problems. She doesn't have many friends and I love her to the moon and back and accept her for her and I wish I was there for you when you were in high school to tell you that you are perfect. I'm sorry you had to do through all of this and you really made my friend's night ❤
I just saw your wig haul (22-2-22) and watched this one after. You have such courage to bare yourself and your vulnerabilities before the world. You are beautiful with your wigs (in all the shapes and lengths, even the Beatles vibe) and beautiful with your shaved head. But more importantly, you have a beautiful and generous spirit. What a role model! ❤️
Clare, I also have trichotillomania! I started pulling the hairs on my eyebrows off, then my eyelashes, and then from a spot right on the top of my head. You described it very well in the video, where we don’t even really notice it when we’re doing it, and it doesn’t really hurt either. When school photos came I had, no eyelashes, barely any eyebrows, and a big bald spot on the top of my head. It was horrible. That was in sixth grade. When school photos came I cut up my picture to pieces and threw it away and made sure no one spoke about it. I’m doing better now though. Clare, I hope you continue to try and rebuild your confidence with your hair because it makes us all happy when you’re happy. Also, I’m so happy that you posted this video. I felt so alone in this battle with myself. Even now I still struggle with it, not as much as before, but I still am. To know that you, such a big creator, has the same problem as I do really really really helps. Thank you Clare
depressed children I hope you’re doing okay. You’re so strong and amazing. You’re not weird or a freak. Representation matters and i’m glad you found a person you can relate to. Keep staying strong and awesome♥️♥️
Amanda Whoop! I went to the doctor and they said I was depressed and there is no way I’m depressed bc I’m such a happy person. Even though I got bullied in school I’m still a happy person I love myself and I will never try to harm myself in anyway other than that I have anger issues😂😂 especially in games. But I don’t cuss bc I was raised right lol
It’s ok Clare, I am going to the doctor in July to see if I have the same thing. In October I started pulling out my eyebrows and then eyelashes. It’s nothing to be afraid about. Your not alone. I’m here with you and so are so much other fans. Your videos got me through hard times. I pull my eyebrows less when I’m watching your videos. Thank you and never be afraid to show your true self. I’m not saying don’t wear wigs if you don’t want to but don’t be ashamed.
I never would have thought she was wearing a wig. I’ve been watching a lot of her videos lately, and loved the colors of her hair and thought she just dyed it. Wigs are wonderful! There’s no problem with wearing them, and a lot of people do! It’s cool to be able to change your hair in an instant
I’m losing my long and formerly luscious hair to an autoimmune disease. I watched this video years ago and appreciated it. It means so much now to be able to come back to it and rewatch. Thank you, Clare. 💜
Oh don’t worry I’m weird as well I eat grass straight from the ground and I’m fine with telling people even if they say ew. Another thing is I eat flower stems at our school we ate the yellow flower stems and I just had bags of them for my friends and to be honest no one does it now only me...eh I’m still good! One more thing I have yellow teeth and I don’t care I still brush my teeth and I still have friends so no one here is perfecto! 🥰
Same but started in 3rd grade and got better and i wanna give you a hug so much you didnt have to share this if you didnt want to but im glad you did. To me 1 like=1 hug for clare
My daughter also has Trichotillomania. Hers started...honestly since she was a baby. At 6 months old, she was pulling hair out of rugs. When she turned 18 months old, I guess she finally realized there was hair on top of her head and she started pulling it out. To the point where she went completely blonde on her right side within a month. We've tried different things to help her, we've done gloves and stuff, but I'm sure I don't have to explain to you how hard it is
Thank you for this; my grandson started doing this a few months ago. His eyebrows are gone and we didn’t know if it was something he would outgrow or not. We have started him in therapy and are hoping that will help. I am bipolar so I understand completely your feelings about not wanting to talk about your situation because people won’t get it.
Omg I too have trichotillomania and have worn wigs! Let me tell you, THEY HELP SO MUCH!!! I was diagnosed when I was 17/18 and then just eventually shaved my head and started wearing wigs. The nervous/ compulsive habit eventually diminished. Now I have hair that i dont obsessively pull out. I catch myself sometimes pulling out a strand or picking my eyebrows and then i have to remind myself what I'm doing and consciously think about not doing it. Lol Also, bullies totally suck. I used to get bullied in school for my weight and my sense of style. *trigger warning* It made me start self-harming and I had done it on and off again until I was about 22 because the bullies words were stuck in my head. Counseling and medications helped immensely and I am happy to say I am now 28, going on 29 and havent harmed myself since. Please please PLEASE dont bully others, and if you see someone being bullied, please step in and say something or at least help aid the person afterwards.
I also have it, I pull out my eyebrows and occasionally my lashes. I’m only a kid and I get very worried about what others will think about my unequal eye brows. Please can you give me tips on how to stop? 💕
I don't want to "brag" about my age but I'm 13 and have been suffering with trichotillomania for 3 years. I want to say one thing All the people suffering from this, I LOVE YOU! I SUPPORT YOU! U CAN BEAT IT!
Watching this video 5 years ago I didn’t really understand, watching this now almost made me cry, I’d never imagine what it would be like to go through that, you are honestly so brave and beautiful Clare, never let anyone tell you different.
I showed this video to my bff who was bullied for her hair. It helped her out alot! Thank you so much for sharing and we will always support you Clare!
that is a cute wig! you always look gorgeous and dont change that! you are beautiful no matter what! i honestly want to look like you. you are gorgeousssss just know that you look beautiful no matter what. (sorry had to edit bc for grammar mistake)
Just a note kids-Look at her now! She’s successful, well liked and stunning. I guarantee those who bullied her would love to be her friend now. Bullies never have the last laugh! Remember, every storm has a rainbow! 🌈
Came here from today's video, I've been watching for awhile and noticed your gorgeous wigs but never really bothered to question it. I'm sorry that others couldn't do the same, unfortunately people like that use bringing others down as a coping mechanism for their own insecurities. Thank you for sharing this Clare ♥️
People don’t realize how bad bullying can really mess witH people, even years later.. I’ve been bullied from kindergarten all the way through high school because I was different and had mental issues...it’s still effecting me badly.. you look beautiful with a shaved head, ya look beautiful in wigs, ya look beautiful in general hun
I was bullied once this rude person in my class called Oliver he was the most meanest person in the school I thought one day he got a skipping rope and me and my friends hope and Olivia was just hoin past the bin to put some trash in Oliver tighed us up on a skipping rope when I got home I was worried what he was gonna do next but I went to school and talked to my other friends I feel when ever someone dose something I don't like always tell someone if someone. Dose one thing mean :)
Avery Kelly I’ve been bullied all my life because I’m autistic, and although I don’t have the same condition that Clare has, I do have mental health problems now because of it. My primary school best friend bullied me a lot as well and even told me to jump off a bridge. I have a better bff now, we’ve been bffs for 4 years now. 💗
I'm in Yr 8 now and I was bullied since reception.. And I was left out.. Slapped.. But now I got a better bestie.. And its still torches me my days in reception.. Hating to go to school screaming in the playground..
I know this video is now three years old (nearly to the date, too), but I just wanted to say regardless that this is a beautiful video, and I absolutely adore how raw and honest it is, and not least how absolutely strong you are for sharing this with the entire world for anyone to watch. I myself have grown up going through really heavy bullying, and I know the stress, the harm, the heartache it can cause a person, and for how many years it continues to follow you down the line. You are strong, beautiful, and absolutely inspirational, Clare! ♥️
I don’t know why people don’t respect her decisions she can wear what she wants and having a condition (I don’t like putting it that way :(… ) doesn’t make her any lesser then all of us ♥️♥️
6:55 "The off-hand funny comment you made to get a laugh with your friends about another person, you probably didn't remember it for the second half of your day, but I'm still remembering that 15 years along." This is the best message you could have ever told anyone. This is amazing. You are amazing. Keep it up! 🌸💕
Idk about everyone else but im here in 2021 and I just want to say that Im really glad that Clare got the courage to share this because it takes a lot to share your story to millions of people and I just hope you know you're an amazing person.
you look freaking adorable with the shaved hair! and i honestly never noticed you were wearing wigs haha.... you are strong and i want to give you hugs!!!
I got curious and wanted to know why Clare wore wigs, and then I realized I do this too. Usually it's eyelashes, since my hair is now buzzed, but I always thought I was so weird for this. I still am, but I appreciate the knowledge that other people have this too. Thank you, Clare, for sharing your story with us, it really helped me. 💗💗💗
I talked with my little cousin about a week ago, she’s little and hyper so she blurts our random things a lot and she mentioned how likes to pull her eyelashes out. I’m so glad this video stuck with me! I remember the symptoms you described and told her to go to see a doctor about it. Because of this video my little cousin was able to be diagnosed early, Clare you really are a hero!! I don’t know what would have happened if I hadn’t seen this, thank you so much truly!!! ❤️
You are so strong, and brave, and beautiful in so many ways. Like, I just found you through the Not So Berry challenge, and here I am, watching a video from a year ago and almost crying with how proud I am of you. I also think you rock the wigs! A year on, you're still looking great. 💗
you are LITERALLY so beyond gorgeous bubs!! i stumbled across your account not too long ago and absolutely fell in love with your energy and personality! YOU DESERVE THE WORLD BBY AND YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL NO MATTER WHAT. i’m so so proud of you for how far you’ve come and this is an older video but deserves just as much appreciation. STAY STRONG MY LOVE
I can’t believe this video is already 5yrs old! I had just started wearing wigs & this helped me become more confident about wearing them in public. I forgot that Clare had shaved her head, it took me somewhere around a year to get there & it was so traumatic for me. I’m so happy where I am on my journey & hope Clare is doing well on hers 💜
My hair has been thinning since 2019, with no reason for it. I own quite a few wigs that I love very much but never feel confident wearing. Thank you for this video.
I’m crying 😢 because I think your so brave for just telling this your one of the most inspiring humans on the world 🌎 I love you 😘 Clare don’t let anyone get you down cus your beautiful with or without hair no matter what you will be beautiful
amen to everything you're saying in this video. i had an eating disorder in high school/college as a result of my anxiety/depression -- i completely understand how the stressors in our lives can lead us to do harmful things to ourselves. of course you've been told a million times you're gorgeous. i'm sure, like me, you have trouble believing it. but i always do better with compliments unrelated to my looks that then help me eventually build confidence about my appearance, so: you're a very talented story teller; you're personality is terrific on camera; you're an interesting woman with huge appeal. I know you made this 3 years ago; i hope you have learned to love yourself as much as your fans love you -- and more. I hope you're your BIGGEST fan these days. It's probably a lifelong process; I know it is for me. Thank you for making this video.
My niece has been doing this for a long time. She got to a point where she had no eyelashes, eyebrows, or hair. It's been really hard for her and she still struggles with it. There is help and there is hope.
I've pulled all my eyelashes and eyebrows on multiple occasions, eyelashes came out worse for it. I still pull at both unfortunately, but not nearly as much. I think part of the key is confidence and doing something that occupies your hands. Drawing was the only time I wasn't pulling at them.
This is really heartwarming. A very honest, kindhearted and genuine video. I pray you find a way to manage your condition and ignore the nasty comments on your videos.
Missy Lewis I’m glad to see that other people have Trich, that people like us do exist. But I also hope that everyone who has his can recover! I wish the best for everyone and anyone
I don't have it myself but I hope all of you can get through it and that there are people who care and will love you no matter what I know it's not healthy but I understand my coping mechanism was cutting and I haven't done it in one year and I really hope all of you can get through this stay strong 💜💜💙💙
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I really admire you for being honest as I know this was hard to talk about. I’ve dealt with scalp psoriasis for years & understand that compulsion to touch that is so hard to control. I’m glad you’ve found a solution that seems to really be helping both your regrowth & mental health. ❤ I love all your Sims videos! You seem like such a lovely person inside & out, thanks for keeping us all entertained ☺️ Sending love from the USA!
I’ve been dreading reading comments today, but after checking them I have a big smile on my face ❤️
Thank you for the kind words & love, I’m so touched
I’ve already read so many comments from people going through similar things, so I know I made the right decision
Thank you ❤️
Clare Siobhan we love you and you will always be beautiful inside and out no matter what!! ❤️
Clare Siobhan Your hair is amazing
Clare we love you. It should never matter what people think. We love you so much and it doesn’t matter 💕
You are amazing with hair or not we all love you as your self

You’re beautiful, courageous and amazing for making this video. Really proud of you! Love you gorgeous girl ❤️

I have a friend who has recently started pulling out her hair from anxiety. She used to tear at her skin instead. I’m hoping that this video helps make her feel less alone. Thank you for sharing, Clare.
Don’t know if it will help your friend to know that she’s not alone, but I also have a moderate form of this that has developed recently, also to do with the skin. My GP knows about it, too. I have pretty big scabs that I pick and pick, and I’m worse than Nanny is with what she is like with biting her nails, and the thing is I also bite my nails. It’s definitely an OCD and anxiety thing.
If you aren't 100% on the colour remember you can tint or dye wigs, play around with it, make it a positive and fun thing
But can we talk about how absolutely stunning she looks with or without hair like girl you are actually gorgeous
Yea, if she doesn't love her hair long or if it wasn't for her hair's salvation, I can see her rocking that shaved hair. I could imagine her nailing that shave hair like a badass main character 💜💜
Go on Clare don’t be scared you rock that shaved hair like no one has rocked shaved hair before don’t care about what people say just ingnore them go on go on Clare you go girl
Yes dont be sad, you looks very pretty❤️
I get what you are saying but it's built into the back of brain.. like me I was body shamed all my life.. so I get where she coming from. I always think ppl are talking to me when they are not..it's also like nail bitters.. ppl sometimes get fake nails because of it...keep strong Clare.. we love you..
@@melissaphillips9274 what she is saying is that she can't ignore it since its built into her brain
Who else thinks she looks amazing with the wig, without, and with a buzzed head?
Who am I kidding everyone thinks that
Ikr, she looks different, but really awesome haircut 👏
As someone with dermatillomania, it is comforting to know that there are other people like you who also struggle with body focused repetitive behaviors

Oh Clare, you are so brave, I wish I give you a hug.
Thank you for trusting us.

Does anyone else think they have met clare in person?? (even though you haven't)
You aren’t “weird” or “disgusting.” You are amazing and you rock the wigs! Also, you rock the shaved head-so gorgeous. Hang in there, love. 💗
I never noticed you wore wigs, my brother deals with this so I understand don't worry about wearing wigs haters are haters and they don't deserve your sadness.

Why would you judge Clare?!?!
She is perfect no matter what she does with her hair!
My daughter who is 10 has this and has been diagnosed since she was 2. Thank you for making this video, I had her watch it
who old is your daughter now
10 1/2 now
I've been working with her on her hair and try different ways to cope with anxiety. Now her hair is extremely healthy and half way down her back
Oh, well that is extremely good for her, my hair is half way down my back too!
@@esperanzasvida Tell her i am glad to hear that and she is probably the most beautiful girl in the world and i have ny word on that
I know I'm late but my friend has the same disorder and she is watching this with me and is in literal tears because she has found someone who has the same problems. She doesn't have many friends and I love her to the moon and back and accept her for her and I wish I was there for you when you were in high school to tell you that you are perfect.

I have issues with my hair and scalp and I get really embarrassed. It's amazing that you shared your struggles. Love you!
With a wig, without a wig, Clare I think you look amazing.
Ger Rit so true 💕💕

I suffer from this same disorder...it started in gr 3-4 for me...stress and bullying were big factors...You are not alone pretty lady...xoxo

But you spelt her name wrong but it is ok it probably got auto corrected
I have trichotillomania as well. I can relate.
We love you Clare!

Another thing is I eat flower stems at our school we ate the yellow flower stems and I just had bags of them for my friends and to be honest no one does it now only me...eh I’m still good!
One more thing I have yellow teeth and I don’t care I still brush my teeth and I still have friends so no one here is perfecto! 🥰
Serena Manaloor and not any more 1.74 such a down grade ooof it hurts
I didn't know you wear wigs.
You are gorgeous no matter what Clare. You're such a nice and wonderful person
Natural, wig, or shaved. You are beautiful, amazing and so incredibly strong.
This actually made me cry
Were so proud of you and we will support you no matter what
Same
Same but started in 3rd grade and got better and i wanna give you a hug so much you didnt have to share this if you didnt want to but im glad you did.
To me 1 like=1 hug for clare
Fake? Until I watched this video, I had NO IDEA that you were wearing a wig.
Also, you looked really pretty with shaved hair tho.
Sameeee😂😌❤
I angry she pretty with whatever or however she looks
Sammeee
Same
Ya she looks beautiful with a shaved head and I didn’t know she wore a wig
My daughter also has Trichotillomania. Hers started...honestly since she was a baby. At 6 months old, she was pulling hair out of rugs. When she turned 18 months old, I guess she finally realized there was hair on top of her head and she started pulling it out. To the point where she went completely blonde on her right side within a month. We've tried different things to help her, we've done gloves and stuff, but I'm sure I don't have to explain to you how hard it is
Couldn't even tell she was wearing a wig this whole time wtf
me too:D
Me too I thought she dyed her hair 😅
SAME THO
same
I thought she had dyed her hair aswell
Your current wig looks very natural and the lighter colour is nice for summer! Thank you for sharing ☺️
Jaimie, I then k that’s her real hair (I THINK)
@@prettyluhmayy she said she was wearing a wig at the start of the vid
Savii Chan she shaved her head
You're so beautiful with or without hair!! You're such a sweet and lovely person, wishing you the best clare
Totally agree with you on that
Same !
Thank you for this; my grandson started doing this a few months ago. His eyebrows are gone and we didn’t know if it was something he would outgrow or not. We have started him in therapy and are hoping that will help. I am bipolar so I understand completely your feelings about not wanting to talk about your situation because people won’t get it.
Omg I too have trichotillomania and have worn wigs! Let me tell you, THEY HELP SO MUCH!!! I was diagnosed when I was 17/18 and then just eventually shaved my head and started wearing wigs. The nervous/ compulsive habit eventually diminished. Now I have hair that i dont obsessively pull out. I catch myself sometimes pulling out a strand or picking my eyebrows and then i have to remind myself what I'm doing and consciously think about not doing it. Lol
Also, bullies totally suck. I used to get bullied in school for my weight and my sense of style.
*trigger warning*
It made me start self-harming and I had done it on and off again until I was about 22 because the bullies words were stuck in my head. Counseling and medications helped immensely and I am happy to say I am now 28, going on 29 and havent harmed myself since.
Please please PLEASE dont bully others, and if you see someone being bullied, please step in and say something or at least help aid the person afterwards.
Lilith.N.Morning I hope everything is going well and this made you feel more confident about yourself!
I also have it, I pull out my eyebrows and occasionally my lashes. I’m only a kid and I get very worried about what others will think about my unequal eye brows. Please can you give me tips on how to stop? 💕
@Zenae Robinson why are you pressed she's showing how the same thing effects her to help others why you mad
I don't want to "brag" about my age but I'm 13 and have been suffering with trichotillomania for 3 years.
I want to say one thing
All the people suffering from this, I LOVE YOU! I SUPPORT YOU! U CAN BEAT IT!
Honestly, coming right from my heart..
Hair or no hair, your still beautiful in every way Clare.
And nothing could ever change that.❤️
Who else didn't know she wore a wig?! You look good with short hair girl I think you should embrace it!!
P.S. you're sooo strong!! Love you!!❤
I didn't notice
They look yo good one her espaicially the obray one
I didnt know.
Watching this video 5 years ago I didn’t really understand, watching this now almost made me cry, I’d never imagine what it would be like to go through that, you are honestly so brave and beautiful Clare, never let anyone tell you different.
You're perfect just the way you are Clare!!! You're so beautiful!
Edit: Wear whatever you want, it's your decision!
Clare your so pretty when i first saw your videos i got so jealous because of how you looked
Me too! I actually started watching because I thought she was pretty and I stayed because I love the content
Clare you're so brave keep doing what your amazing at we're so proud of you.
I showed this video to my bff who was bullied for her hair. It helped her out alot! Thank you so much for sharing and we will always support you Clare!
that is a cute wig! you always look gorgeous and dont change that! you are beautiful no matter what! i honestly want to look like you. you are gorgeousssss just know that you look beautiful no matter what. (sorry had to edit bc for grammar mistake)
Always remember that you are beautiful just the way you are
Just a note kids-Look at her now! She’s successful, well liked and stunning. I guarantee those who bullied her would love to be her friend now. Bullies never have the last laugh! Remember, every storm has a rainbow! 🌈
That's not true
Well said Krissy!
Wow
@@strawberrytrees1319 -_-
This will make me cry
I would of never noticed 🤷🏼♀️ it looks real to me. Wear your wigs girl!
Came here from today's video, I've been watching for awhile and noticed your gorgeous wigs but never really bothered to question it. I'm sorry that others couldn't do the same, unfortunately people like that use bringing others down as a coping mechanism for their own insecurities. Thank you for sharing this Clare ♥️
People don’t realize how bad bullying can really mess witH people, even years later.. I’ve been bullied from kindergarten all the way through high school because I was different and had mental issues...it’s still effecting me badly.. you look beautiful with a shaved head, ya look beautiful in wigs, ya look beautiful in general hun
I know, just one little remark can make you feel horrible
I was bullied once this rude person in my class called Oliver he was the most meanest person in the school I thought one day he got a skipping rope and me and my friends hope and Olivia was just hoin past the bin to put some trash in Oliver tighed us up on a skipping rope when I got home I was worried what he was gonna do next but I went to school and talked to my other friends I feel when ever someone dose something I don't like always tell someone if someone. Dose one thing mean :)
Avery Kelly I’ve been bullied all my life because I’m autistic, and although I don’t have the same condition that Clare has, I do have mental health problems now because of it. My primary school best friend bullied me a lot as well and even told me to jump off a bridge. I have a better bff now, we’ve been bffs for 4 years now. 💗
I'm in Yr 8 now and I was bullied since reception.. And I was left out.. Slapped.. But now I got a better bestie.. And its still torches me my days in reception.. Hating to go to school screaming in the playground..
꧁ 𝚖 𝚊 𝚍 𝚍 𝚒 𝚎 ꧂ I’ve also been bullied all throughout school. It’s very hard to cope with, so I hope you’re doing ok, even though I don’t know you. 💜
girl. you're wig game is strong, I didn't even realise it was one!!! xX
Either
Same
Same
Same... this video was news to me
Same bro
I don't get why someone would say something like that to you. You look great with and without wigs.
I love you and I will always support you.
I know this video is now three years old (nearly to the date, too), but I just wanted to say regardless that this is a beautiful video, and I absolutely adore how raw and honest it is, and not least how absolutely strong you are for sharing this with the entire world for anyone to watch. I myself have grown up going through really heavy bullying, and I know the stress, the harm, the heartache it can cause a person, and for how many years it continues to follow you down the line. You are strong, beautiful, and absolutely inspirational, Clare! ♥️
we will support you no matter what!! we all love you so much
Love her🥺
I don’t know why people don’t respect her decisions she can wear what she wants and having a condition (I don’t like putting it that way :(… ) doesn’t make her any lesser then all of us ♥️♥️
Zoe Veal YEAH!
Zoe Veal Yes...ur right Zoe we will
Zoe Veal I accidentally clicked the dislike button,I have such fat thumbs but ily clare💗

"The off-hand funny comment you made to get a laugh with your friends about another person, you probably didn't remember it for the second half of your day, but I'm still remembering that 15 years along."
This is the best message you could have ever told anyone. This is amazing. You are amazing. Keep it up! 🌸💕
м σ c н ι 100% agree
Idk about everyone else but im here in 2021 and I just want to say that Im really glad that Clare got the courage to share this because it takes a lot to share your story to millions of people and I just hope you know you're an amazing person.
Welp i´m 1 year later-
She protecc

Rosie Kira how do you know?
Deecy P time stamp 11:25! That’s what she meant.
she does look beautiful
I love her with her hair shaved
She looks so adorable!
you look freaking adorable with the shaved hair! and i honestly never noticed you were wearing wigs haha.... you are strong and i want to give you hugs!!!
I got curious and wanted to know why Clare wore wigs, and then I realized I do this too. Usually it's eyelashes, since my hair is now buzzed, but I always thought I was so weird for this. I still am, but I appreciate the knowledge that other people have this too. Thank you, Clare, for sharing your story with us, it really helped me. 💗💗💗
I talked with my little cousin about a week ago, she’s little and hyper so she blurts our random things a lot and she mentioned how likes to pull her eyelashes out. I’m so glad this video stuck with me! I remember the symptoms you described and told her to go to see a doctor about it. Because of this video my little cousin was able to be diagnosed early, Clare you really are a hero!! I don’t know what would have happened if I hadn’t seen this, thank you so much truly!!! ❤️
Aqua Marine I’m so happy your cousin got diagnosed early and I hope she can find a way to fight it! 😇
Clare your natural hair is beautiful. I hope you can get some help with this anxiety problem.
Oh Clare im litteraly crying for you. Im getting so emotional. Thank you so much for opening up♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Love you
You are so strong, and brave, and beautiful in so many ways. Like, I just found you through the Not So Berry challenge, and here I am, watching a video from a year ago and almost crying with how proud I am of you. I also think you rock the wigs! A year on, you're still looking great. 💗
Just do what makes you proud Clare! We all love you so much 🥺💗
We're here for you ❤ you're such a kind, caring person.
Clare,
I LITTERALLY did not KNOW you wear a WIG!
Crownyy Plays SAME!

YOU DESERVE THE WORLD BBY AND YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL NO MATTER WHAT. i’m so so proud of you for how far you’ve come and this is an older video but deserves just as much appreciation. STAY STRONG MY LOVE

I never new you wore a wig
You are so brave
One like:one less bully
Awasome Ash it’s spelled knew sorry I’m a spelling freak but I agree
Your pic is scary
Awasome Ash sooooooooo True
@An Anime gamer YEET *whatever* how am I scaring people and why are you trying to shut down people's opinions
Had no idea! Your hair looks awesome as. Literally I could not tell. Even when you said I couldn’t tell!
I can’t believe this video is already 5yrs old! I had just started wearing wigs & this helped me become more confident about wearing them in public. I forgot that Clare had shaved her head, it took me somewhere around a year to get there & it was so traumatic for me. I’m so happy where I am on my journey & hope Clare is doing well on hers 💜
No hair or hair. Clare your an amazing person, you have inspired me so much ily ❤️❤️❤️
C - Creative
L - Lighthearted
A - Amazing
R - respectful

That's so nice of you,thank you
Julie Williams???
Yes I love you so much Clare!!!!!!!!!! You always put a smile on my face! You are beautiful
My hair has been thinning since 2019, with no reason for it. I own quite a few wigs that I love very much but never feel confident wearing. Thank you for this video.
Your are beautiful with or without hair.
Stay strong
Love you
I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE! And I used to do hair. You do so so good ♡
Keep doing you, girl.
I’m crying 😢 because I think your so brave for just telling this your one of the most inspiring humans on the world 🌎 I love you 😘 Clare don’t let anyone get you down cus your beautiful with or without hair no matter what you will be beautiful
Love.kawaii Cute | me too, I came to the comments to make sure nobody left a hate comment. We love Clare no matter what!😭😁😍
@@katemartin8202 they'd have to be a monster to leave a hate comment on this video. But i do remember seeing some a few videos ago.
Tashi Newland yes they would be a monster. People need to learn to think before they act. We love Clare!❤️😁
amen to everything you're saying in this video. i had an eating disorder in high school/college as a result of my anxiety/depression -- i completely understand how the stressors in our lives can lead us to do harmful things to ourselves. of course you've been told a million times you're gorgeous. i'm sure, like me, you have trouble believing it. but i always do better with compliments unrelated to my looks that then help me eventually build confidence about my appearance, so: you're a very talented story teller; you're personality is terrific on camera; you're an interesting woman with huge appeal. I know you made this 3 years ago; i hope you have learned to love yourself as much as your fans love you -- and more. I hope you're your BIGGEST fan these days. It's probably a lifelong process; I know it is for me. Thank you for making this video.
This video is so encouraging. Thank you for putting yourself out there, Clare. 💕
Currently crying because I pull out my eyelashes and when I told people they thought I was crazy. Thanks for this!
i do because its really satisfying.
My niece has been doing this for a long time. She got to a point where she had no eyelashes, eyebrows, or hair. It's been really hard for her and she still struggles with it. There is help and there is hope.
ok i do the same thing but not often only when i cry
I've pulled all my eyelashes and eyebrows on multiple occasions, eyelashes came out worse for it. I still pull at both unfortunately, but not nearly as much. I think part of the key is confidence and doing something that occupies your hands. Drawing was the only time I wasn't pulling at them.
Approximately 2.5 million people in the U.S. suffer from trichotillomania. You are not alone.
So Proud Of You, Never Stop Supporting, You Are Beautiful No Matter What ❤️💞
This is really heartwarming. A very honest, kindhearted and genuine video.
I pray you find a way to manage your condition and ignore the nasty comments on your videos.
Hair or not
Eyelashes or not
Eyebrows or not
You will always be beautiful and perfect
ilove shirts Do you have a problem with Clare? What did she ever do to you?
Aw ur so sweet!
@ilove shirts what the heck you haven't even heard her talk
@ilove shirts The fact that no one's perfect makes everyone beautiful in their own way.
Sweetspiritsam
You pull off wigs so well😍 I love this one, and the silver one is just so gorgeous on you!😍
I suffer from Trichotillomania as well stay strong Clare we can go through this together
Missy Lewis
I’m glad to see that other people have Trich, that people like us do exist.
But I also hope that everyone who has his can recover! I wish the best for everyone and anyone
Little Miss Lowlife thank you 🙏🏽
me too stay strong
I don't have it myself but I hope all of you can get through it and that there are people who care and will love you no matter what I know it's not healthy but I understand my coping mechanism was cutting and I haven't done it in one year and I really hope all of you can get through this stay strong 💜💜💙💙
I just realised that I have this, it makes so much sense :/
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I really admire you for being honest as I know this was hard to talk about. I’ve dealt with scalp psoriasis for years & understand that compulsion to touch that is so hard to control. I’m glad you’ve found a solution that seems to really be helping both your regrowth & mental health. ❤ I love all your Sims videos! You seem like such a lovely person inside & out, thanks for keeping us all entertained ☺️ Sending love from the USA!
Clare, you’re so strong for sharing this! You are amazing! We all love you so much!❤️
I think you're gorgeous, and we support you no matter what!
