Lol I watched something about this on 20/20 a few weeks ago. It's a serious mental condition... or a reallly bad habbit.
I'm not sure what it's called, and I don't remember how to fix it.. google search it and ask a doctor about it.
Get on 20/20's website maybe?
Hope you get better!
You need to see your school consoler.
well whats the source of the problem???? do u know whats causeing u to do this????
Shave your head. You will look sexy and unique!
ive over come hair pulling just to inspire you ive had it as long as ive been stressed 4 years but... i felt this needs to stop and now! so i stopped one day"despite the urge i kept to it i imagined that ive stopped for a year and it wasnt worth starting all over- do anything you can do get your mind off it- i used a hat- im 14- i shaved my head- put gloves on hands when in room - snapped a rubberband on wrist when urge tried to get me- and talked to god- have self confindence you can do it- i know you wont think it will help but i used leg hair as substitute- dont eat it i forms hairballs no joke and you my need surgery cause it wont digest its called trichotillomania
First thing you need to do is go in the phonebook and set up an apt. with a phsychitrist because you may have something wrong that you were not aware of.Going to a counsler wont do much unless you need someone to talk to.But a phsychitrist will help you diagnose whats causing you to pull and eat your hair.Im sorry you are going through this,everyone has issues of their own yours just happens to be hair pulling.One thing i doknow is from eating or even putting your hair in your mouth can cause you to get worms in your body trust me its gross so maybe if you can't help to pull atleast try not to eat it ok.Also you being so young your probley going thorugh alot with hormones and school so just talk to your parents and see if they can get you someone to talk to it mihgt help.GOOD-LUCK.and if people want to say JUST STOP dont LISTEN!!because everyone has problmes and no one is perfect
souns like you have too much energy and or stress...one word-----sports;try raquet ball and torture yourself that way;boy...you can hit that frackin ball as hard as you want and will get better and better at it,that is a great stress reducer...you can put all your anger into it...You may also like the pain of doing this,if it is pain you crave,get a bike and pedal so hard and fast that your legs go numb and then when you stop,they tend to cause pain,or another great pain giver is letting a cat make dough on your skin,that is tantleizeing.Just substatute something else instead of pulling out your hair for it may not grow back...you may even ENJOY stress.If so,go out and race cars thos little racers;I forgot the name,you know,little cars around a man made track;you may need competition,there are all sorts of possabilities out there,ask yourself what you can do and find a solution;use your subconcious as a guide for GOD lies within your subconcious,and he knows what you need...If you really like the pain of hair pulling,pull out the hair on your legs instead;or pubic hair or wherever you dont want hair,I do think you want it on your head though.It does however give a unique pain though hey.Try nose hairs too for that is challenging as well...good luck to ya my molting bird you...
It's called Trichotillomania (impulsive hair plucking). I hope you see a doctor. There are medications and therapy that can help you control it. Just tell a doctor what's going on. It's a fairly common problem.

I don't have the answer for you, but I wanted you to know that you're not alone. It's a very widespread condition, medication can help. I know you don't want that, but it's a sign of a possible OCD condition and you might not be able to stop on your own.
