Yes, there are medications and therapy for OCD. You will have to see a psychiatrist. The hair pulling is called "Trichotillomannia". I am going crazy.
No, you just have a certain problem. I sometimes go through times when my Trichotillomannia acts up. The feeling of pulling my hair feels incredibly good, even if it hurts. Sometimes the more pain the better it feels. It most often acts up when I am over stressed. Tono — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

no not at all-bald maybe? The antidepressant meds may help as can cbt therapy-it is treated as a compulsion and those meds that do better for ocd are used-zoloft, prozac, anafranil, wellbutrin, yadda-go see a psychiatrist and then a cognitive therapist — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

No, you’re not. Find a psychologist for *cognitive behavioral therapy* which can be amazingly effective and doesn’t take forever to have some progress. There are meds for this (mainly the SSRI antidepressants and the older TCA Anafranil) which may support therapy. Philip — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

::Are there any pills or treatments for this ? :: ::I am going crazy. Dear Paul, You are NOT going crazy!! There is help for this but you need to see a psychiatrist for that help. Please call one as soon as possible. If that`s not possible, than a good starting point would be your MD. Good luck!! Jackie ~*~I’ve been on an emotional roller coaster lately.
