I have been pleasantly surprised by the Trichstop program, primarily because I got out of it so much morethan I was expecting. I came in looking for an evidence-based program for trich, and I definitely got that. While my puling hasn't altogether stopped, it's definitely at a lower frequency (on average, 5 and under hairs per day, with some days none) and the associated distress is pretty much gone. Thankfully I didn't come inwith any functional impairment (i.e., not being able to leave the house, avoiding social situations, etc) andthat hasn't changed. What I hadn't anticipated was that so much work would be around past events andconnecting those to my current emotions, thoughts, urges, and pulling behavior. It has led to me havingmuch needed conversations, expressing my thoughts and feelings known, and increasing my ability to meetmy needs. It's led to more crying than I've done in the past several years, and to coming into contact withsadness, pain, hurt, and unfortunate but overdue realizations about my experience as a child (and beyond) with those who were supposed to care for and nurture me. This has also led to me feeling more connected to those around me (friends, partner) who have been supportive and have provided a safe space for me to grow emotionally.
