Trichotillomania is a rare condition related to OCD which causes a person to pick their hair out. This can be caused mostly by stress, anxiety, or depression, but usally for me I'll just be sitting at home feeling fine. My family knows about it but only one of my friends at school knows about it. Some people ask me why I fill in my eyebrows and they poke fun at it sometimes, I know they're just kidding around.. But later on it just kind of gets to me. I also use eye makeup like eye liner and eyeshadow. (Note that I have done dance for 10 years and I know how to apply makeup correctly!) But I'm questioning telling people about this... I don't want people thinking I've lost my marbles! Then again, maybe people would understand? I don't know... Boys and girls can have this.. It must suck for guys because most guys can't use extentions or makeup to cover it up. I only pick at my eyelashes and eyebrows and it's an addiction. It's a vicious circle. I also just wanted to inform you guys on what trich is and I really want you to be aware so you can understand other people that may have this condition. Please leave kind answers, it would be much appreciated. (:

I'm just going to say that I'm actually not bothered by people saying things because they are just joking... And let me say that this issue is resolved... I won't be telling anyone from school about this. Thank you for your inputs though!
