I'm delighted that my very personal blog post on Friday was met with support and understanding. And what matters even more to me is that I know those websites I shared are going to help people.
I have a condition that sounds kind of strange: Trichotillomania. It's a compulsion to pull out one's hair. My case is relatively mild in that it's limited to just my eyebrows, but it's been a source of shame and embarrassment for me since I was little. If you're wondering if you have a Body-Focused Repetitive Behavior disorder, you can set up a free consultation through the Heart and Soul Academy website. Another excellent resource is The TLC Foundation for Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors. There you will see that this is BFRB Awareness Week so I'm doing my part to raise awareness by "going public" and sharing my story.
