Author has written 16 stories for Newsies.

I like to cover my face in three pounds of make up, put on clothes that don't exist in this day in age, get temporarily blinded by dozens of lights, belt until my voice is gone, and jump and spin around until my feet bleed. All while pretending I'm anyone I'm not.

Yeah, they are in a weird mix of OBC, closing, and tour... but oh well.

My best friend had Trichotillomania (tric-o-till-o-man-ia). You may know her as DaughterofTersichore. I know her as the sweetest and most amazing person in the world. She has been struggling with this since around early March, and I was one of the first to know about it. Not many people know what Trichotillomania (or Trich for short), but we want to raise more awareness about it.

Trichotillomania is a huge struggle for the people who have it. Something important to keep in mind is that we CAN'T control it. We can't "just stop". It's not that easy, even though a lot of people (doctors, friends, family, you name it) tell us that all the time. We will spend hours and hours every single day of our lives pulling our hair and struggling to hide the bald spots. I'm missing roughly all the hair on the top of my head. Trich affects 2-4% of the global population, and to put that in perspective, anorexia affects .5%. As of right now, there is no cure.

Trichotillomania isn't going to directly kill someone. However, it does put people who have it at a much greater risk of depression and suicide. Today's society makes hair so important. Why can't you be beautiful and half bald? People with trich lose so many opportunities. Swimming's a pain, sleepovers are basically off-limits, and our heads get so sweaty and disgusting under all the hats and wigs. No sports either! A lot of people also spend hours in front of the mirror drawing back on their missing eyebrows and eyelashes. And then they get bullied for wearing too much makeup.

Trich is a BFRB (Bodily Focused Repetitive Behaviour), among other disorders. This isn't all of them, but here's a little list:

1. Trichotillomania (Hair pulling)

2. Dermotillomania (Skin picking)

3. Onychophagia (Nail biting) (This is by far the most accepted in society.)

4. Trichophagia (Hair eating) (This can create hairballs in a person's stomach and lead to either operations, death, or both.)

5. Dermophagia (Skin biting)

6. Onychotillomania (Nail tearing)

7. Rhinotillexomania (Nose picking) (This is not normal nose picking. It is intense tearing at the inside of a person's nostril, and it can cause a LOT of damage and is NOT funny or something to joke about.)

People judge what they don't understand. My message to you, fellow readers, writers, and fans, is to never judge someone else for what they wear or how they look or who they befriend. You never really know the whole story. And I know a lot of people will tell you this, but trust me, I've experienced this a lot, and it really is true. So before you whisper or make faces with your friends, just keep in mind that these people could be going through so much more than you have ever known.

If you're interested in trich (or you have time to kill), here are a few really great links:

Trichotillomania Learning Center (they're pretty much the only trich organization out there):

TrichJournal (a video blogger on YouTube who has been crucial in spreading awareness. She's hilarious): www.youtube.com/user/TrichJournal

TLC's YouTube account: www.youtube.com/user/TLCWebinarsArchive1

Trichster (a new documentary on trich):

Please help spread awareness! Feel free to put a link to my profile on yours. It would be amazing of you! Thank you for taking the time to read this! (blowing imaginary kisses)

If You Just Need to Laugh:

I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem. The dinosaurs' extinction wasn't an accident. Barney came and they all committed suicide. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, if well aimed. The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music. Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege. I haven't lost my mind -- it's backed up on tape somewhere. Boys are like trees - they take 50 years to grow up. I've got ADD and magic markers. Oh, the fun I will have. Is it time for your medication or mine? Oh, I'm so sorry! I forgot that you're an idiot! A stranger stabs you in the front; a friend stabs you in the back; a boyfriend stabs you in the heart, but best friends grab those knives and stab those bastards back for you. A good friend is someone who thinks you are a good egg even though he knows you're slightly cracked- Bernard Meltzer Amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic. Amateurs 1- Pro 0. To put it nicely, I hope you choke Suburbs are areas where they cut down trees and then name the streets after them. It's you and me versus the world...we attack at dawn. You don't have to be faster than the bear, you just have to be faster than the slowest guy running from the bear. A day without sunshine is like... night. I only know how to do things three ways: the right way, the wrong way, and my way... which is the wrong way only faster. Whoever said that 'nothing was impossible' never tried to slam a revolving door. When life gives you lemons, make apple juice, then sit back and enjoy while others try to figure out how you did it. When life hands you a lemon, squirt life in the eye, and run like hell. Never knock on Death's door. Ring the doorbell and run away. He hates that. Last night, I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and thought to myself, "Where the heck is the ceiling?" If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you. Even if the voices aren't real, they have some good ideas. Stupidity killed the cat. Curiosity was framed. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Of course, it's usually an oncoming express train. Writing isn't a career, it's more of a mental illness. I'm an angel, honest! The horns are just there to keep the halo straight. Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over. Real friends don't let you do stupid things--alone. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well. He who laughs last thinks slowest. Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90 percent chance you'll get it wrong. It is said that if you line up all the cars in the world end-to-end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them. If the shoe fits, get another one just like it. The things that come to those who wait may be the things left by those who got there first. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day drinking beer. Flashlight: A case for holding dead batteries. The shin bone is a device for finding furniture in the dark. When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of twelve people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty. For every action, there is an equal and opposite government program. A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand. Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world. Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused. I love deadlines...especially the 'whooshing' sound they make as they fly by. I can please only one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow isn't looking good, either. There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved by a suitable application of high explosives. Tell me what you need and I'll tell you how to get along without it On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the Escape key. Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons because, to them, you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level. Always forgive your enemies - Nothing annoys them so much. If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. For Sale: Parachute. Only used once, never opened, small stain. If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film. Evening news is where they begin with 'Good evening', and then proceed to tell you why it isn't. Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else. I like work. It fascinates me. I sit and look at it for hours. Complicated problems always have the easiest and most wrong solutions. You can’t drown your sorrows, they can swim. People are like slinkies, basically useless, but ever so amusing to watch fall down the stairs.

Newsies Creed

Whenever I see someone with a dark past that makes them all the more better, I'll remember Jack Kelly.

Whenever I see someone doubted for their abilities, I'll remember Katherine Plumber

Whenever I see someone with glasses, I'll remember Specs

Whenever I see someone with a broken leg, I'll remember Crutchie

Whenever I see someone totally strike out with a girl, I'll remember Romeo

Whenever I see someone being overprotective of their little siblings, I'll remember Davey

Whenever I see a young kid act twice their age, I'll remember Les

Whenever I see someone completely over-the-top, I'll remember Medda

Whenever I see someone act seriously tough, I'll remember Spot Conlon

Whenever I see someone only care for money, I'll remember Joe Pulitzer

Whenever I see a couple who care so much about each other that they're willing to give up their dreams to stay with each other, I'll remember Jack and Katherine

And whenever I see someone willing to stand up for the little guys, to fight for what they believe in, I'll remember Newsies!

If you are a complete and utter fansie, who now believes you can fight for what you believe in, are constantly walking down the hall humming or singing Newsies songs on repeat, who have the entire soundtrack memorized, who are willing to slap someone across the face... with a steel chair if they even dare to criticize the show in any way, shape or form, if your dream is to meet (and in my case sing with) Jeremy Jordan, Corey Cott and/or Dan DeLuca (personally and) and if you're willing to risk everything to spend a day with the dorks of the Newsies cast, copy/paste this onto your profile and add your name to the list (let the world know people!):
