You know the overwhelming distress, feelings of shame, isolation and low self-confidence that your child experiences because of this unpleasant and sometimes painful condition. The impact of Trichotillomania (hair pulling) on children’s lives is huge.
Trichotillomania (hair pulling) is an impulse control disorder
which can result in noticeable hair loss? Your child is not doing it on purpose and sometimes may not even be aware that they are doing it.
Hair pulling mostly begins in the early teens but it can start at a much younger and has been known in children as young as two years old.
In some cases, it can be linked to a stressful time in your child’s life such as abuse, parents divorcing or a death in the family but this is not always the case.
Hair pulling relieves your child’s emotional distress.
Often your child will experience a build up of tension that can only be relieved by the hair pulling (Trichotillomania). Sometimes the hair pulling will occur because of your child being bored.
Hair pulling brings immediate relief and comfort but this is often followed by embarrassment and distress.
Whatever the reason for your child’s hair pulling (Trichotillomania); it is causing them stress, upset and anxiety.
