THAT HURTS A LOT) I'm the brainy, zany, acting Jew, CAUSE I'M THAT JEW --CassieKeys 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!

(Bold the ones that apply to you!) You talk to yourself a lot. (e.g. 'Should I be doing this, or typing out a story?) You talk to yourself about talking to yourself. (e.g. 'Why do I constantly ask myself random things?') When you talk to yourself you often talk to yourself like you're talking to someone else. (e.g. 'Have you ever noticed that deliver could mean someone's liver?') After uttering a profound piece of wisdom like that above, you stare at the cookie in your hand with awe and say, 'Holy crap, this stuff is great for sugar highs...'
