Hair roots?

---

When I wash my hair the roots hurt, does anyone know what causes this?

Are you pulling on your hair?

Don't rub the head of yourself, do it gently

a lot of times I pull my hair when I get bored or stressed.

trichotillomania?

sorry?

Trichotillomania is a failure to resist pulling one's own hair. It's typically a sort of stress release. I think most people pull one hair at a time, but probably not everyone. Some people pull eyelashes or even pubic hair.

they think of a fancy name for everything in the medical community don't they?!

They have to.It creates the illusion that they are smarter than us so they can get paid more.

haha its the whole medical community will come crashing down! We must make it public!

Wait! I just got a really good job. I don't want to lose it.
Can't we keep it a secret for a bit longer?

stop being so selfish its one job for a million people to be free! Thats a ratio I will not lose sleep over!

But if I'm that one person who loses his job, I will lose sleep!

you will get a job under the new medical community as grand commander! So hows that sound?

In reply to: a lot of times I pull my hair when I get bored or stressed. Well that's why your head is sore then

I do that too. Sometimes I pull it out.

oh come on now. Its like you're comparing me to a cutter.

It's not really self-injury as much as it is an impulse control disorder.

I guess I'm looking at it being inundated in psychopathology.But you're right also.

I'm no pyscho!
