Answers:
Pulling hair out is called trichotillomania!. This is considered an impulse-control disorder and may also be linked to cutting your hair!. Breif therapy can help with this!. You should get it treated because it can get worse and manifest itself in other areas of your life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't know!. We can't possibly know if it's a problem, we don't know what's going on for you!.!.!.
Personally, I pull my hair out a lott, the thought of being bald doesn't stop me because i can't!.!.!.call me weak willed if you like!.!.!.I just od'd on my meds again because it's anything to avoid suicide!.
I also cut most of my hair off recently because I couldn't stand it any more!. But that was more of a conscious choice!.
If you are worried, speak to your dr, or a counsellor or a parent, teacher, trusted adult!. I'd suggest to do this anyway as you could probably benefit from it!. Do take care of yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I cut my hair myself!.
But not for the reasons you do!.
I don't see it as that big of a problem!.
You should take out your depression on music, art, writing, whatever you like!.
But have nicely cut, un-split hair is nice too!. ;)Www@Answer-Health@Com

You could possibly have a mild form of OCD!. But, your behavior is not harmful or dangerous to you or others!. So, if it doesn't go past what you described, or interfere with normal daily activities I wouldn't worry about it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Could be sign of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
