I have trichotillomania. My pdoc added a dopamine focused anti-depressant to what I take to help with the symptoms. Probably shouldn't admit this, but I still engage in hair pulling. Since I used to cut and started hair pulling as an alternative I'm okay with it continuing. Does that make sense? I view it as a bad habit that I'm not willing to put the energy into quitting. Some people bite their nails, I pull hair. It's not having a harmful effect on my life so why do anything about it?
