    That is a very interesting comment about the nervous impulse to inflict a little bit of pain in order to trigger the body’s response.  I think that is part of what is behind my head-scratching and eczema problem.

    Hello! I’ve been pulling out my hair since I was about 14 years old. It started with my eyelashes, and over the years it has gradually increased from my lashes to brows, and now hair. Since I can recall, I have never been able to completely stop pulling, I can only stop myself from pulling out of one area at a time, and then go back to another. I’ve been on a few different websites and seen a lot of different tips, and I’m going to make a huge attempt to try these things out and see what works best. Can’t wait to share.
