There is a secret about me, that isn't really secret...
I suffer
Trichotillomania - it's a compulsive behavior, where the sufferer repeatedly pulls hair from the scalp, eyebrows and/or eyelashes. I happen to scratch at this spot in my head. It's not something that I am proud of either... It started during year 9 exams and I haven't really stopped doing it since. I don't even notice that I am doing it half the time. Lately, it has been getting worse and worse. It's because, I am bored. I am no longer working fulltime...since I've been living in Geelong. Boredom is one of the keys that drives me to do it. But, stress also does it. Either way, it feels like I can't win against it. I've tried a few ways to stop, wearing a hat/beanie helps a little. Mostly if I become aware that I am doing it, I stop. It's will power that will help me beat it.
