One of the compulsions I hate the most is hair picking (trichotillomania) which even after starting my OCD treatment doesn't seem to go away. I know it's been relatively soon since I started taking meds, but will this compulsion go away eventually?

Compulsive hair pulling (trichotillomania) and skin picking (excoriation) are Body Focused Repetitive Behavior Disorders (BFRBs). If you’re one of the 200+ million people who live with a BFRB, then you know how incredibly difficult these habits are to stop." Read ADAA member Ashley J.

Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) include things like skin picking (excoriation disorder), hair pulling (trichotillomania), nail biting/picking, cheek chewing and more. BFRBs can often make us feel like we have no control over our behaviors and that we’re at the mercy of an endless cycle.

The disorders I know i have goes by the following: adhd/autism and trichotillomania (plucking out my hair), and a minor speech impediment with a stutter. I used to see a specialist for my speech impediment but I was younger but I was never told I am special needs.

After this I developed trichotillomania. Something I am noticing recently, but think have been since the start of time, is my inability to focus or remember stuff (not like memory problems). It is like I have to put so much pressure like proper force on on words in order for them to go into head.

I'm not sure if it would be accurate as to go so far to say that I might have Trichotillomania. I'm not really pulling on my hair so much as I am excessively touching it and twirling it with my hands. I do have OCD so maybe this is just an OCD behavior and tendency I have gradually developed.
