I pull my hair out and play with it all the time I do it a lot more when I am anxious I don't know what to do about it because I have never heard of it before I shared my experience with my anxiety and religious hair pulling/twirling they told me this illness trillomania and is more common then I thought do I need to tell my psychologist? If you think of it I have always had weird "tics" like I used to sit down 3 and yay something or I would become retarded. I would eat my own cheeks with my teeth and if I tried to stop it would be really hard but compared to how bad my OCD symptoms were this is nothing. This at best just makes the house covered with my long hair and I am sure it may have already ended up in my food accidentally. While this hair pulling is a pain it is not really taking over my life so I not sure how much of a priority this is mentioning to my psychologist.
