HIDING TRICHOTILLOMANIA
“Most trichsters are not comfortable telling others, even close friends, family, and doctors or therapists that they pull their hair out . . . . Many do not swim or go out on windy days . . . . Since damage to the scalp, eyebrows and eyelashes can be the most conspicuous, they may have to resort to wearing wigs or . . . scarves . . . . [T]richsters may keep their pulling secret for years.”
