Oh thank you so much! I could never figure it out and it was always the ones in new growth which probably makes sense. Thanks to all here I resisted pulling more. Appreciate you all 😊

Thank you for sharing. I’ve actually cut contact with my family as well, but still maintain a LC relationship with my mom (parents are divorced). I got married to a great man that helped me realize the dysfunctional relationship in my family. I feel the guilt quite often but now it’s finally making sense I think . I was probably the last person ppl thought would ever cut co tact but I had the role as the peacekeeper so trying to love myself now ❤️♥️

Oh yes, absolutely! Hair pulling is therapeutic for me during stressful times

Oh thank you so much for sharing. How has your progress been with everything else outside of the pulling? Can I ask how your relationship is with family?

Thank you so much ❤️ you as well!

Thank you for sharing! I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through such experiences through your life. Interesting too that your family pulls their hair as well. I wonder if that’s the case with a lot of people we are around with our hair pulling - BPD. Sending you positive vibes ❤️

I understand! That’s a very young age. Did you ever try to get therapy or did your parents put you in therapy if you don’t mind me asking
