My Life with Trich

I still havent pulled any hair, so far so good. I still kinda twirl it alot like Im getting ready to but I havent done it yet. I think Im close to a week without pulling. I passed my motorcycle class and things are going ok at work. I think my next battle will be to try and lose some more weight!

May 29th, but still kind of 28th

The last two days have been very good for me as far as pulling is concerned. I didnt pull at all yesterday which is awesome today. And I almost got all the way through today and at the last minute at work YANK! it was 9pm! I was so close.

Im not stressed at work right now which is good. I think that helps with pulling some. I think sugar kindof induces it too though so I want to cut back, and plus diabetes runs in my family. Iv picked at some finer hairs that are on my skin, but Im taking it one step at a time and 1 hair in the past 2 days is pretty awesome for me.

I havent started my physical journal back up yet but I gotta get that going soon.

And as I write this, I start to get that "itch" but I wont let it get me again today! no way jose!!!

Today

Well, i did ok yesterday. I think I pulled less than 5 hairs. which is pretty good for me. I still picked at my skin though. I think im gonna have to take this one step at a time. Maybe i can try to quit pulling from head first then work on the rest of me. Im a little stressed right now because my boss comes back from vacation today and the store didnt do that great in some important areas while he was gone. But it wasnt like I slacked on purpose. I mean, I didnt slack. We all worked hard, but all he will see is FAILURE and I hate that. So, well see how the pulling goes today, hopefully I wont get in to much trouble at work today.

Today is the start of something new

I have been picking up around the house today. I was cleaning out the old magazines from the magazine rack. And there was hair everywhere. My hair. Small hairs. Ones that had started to grow again and I pulled them back out, to begin the process again. The magazine rack sits right next to the couch where I normally sit. I was disgusted. I need to tell the world for some reason, yet seem completely anonymous about it at the same time.

Im starting today,
To keep this blog, and try to stop pulling yet again. It almost seems fruitless. But If I could just stop. It would be awesome if I could even go to a hairstylist again. Ive been cutting my own hair for years. Sunday always seems like a good day to start something new. I kept a journal, it seemed to help, Im going to pick that back up today to.

Maybe Ill make progess this time.
