Yeah, I agree with Rapunzel - trich can be many things. It can be pretty hard to get through - the sooner you can get help and stop the better. Meantimes find things to occupy your hands (drawing, puzzles, even knitting lol), wear tight sleeves and or mittens whilst you are alone so that you cannot reach up and pull without being reminded, and keep items such as tweezers someplace strange like the freezer.

Trich can cause a lot of distress in itself, but over time it can cause skin damage or spread to other areas where hair loss would be more upsetting.
