Trichotillomania & Stress
Trichotillomania, also known as hair-pulling disorder or compulsive hair-pulling, is a mental disorder that is characterized by a long-term urge to pull out one’s hair. This can also result in hair loss. People who struggle with hair pulling also frequently go through other psychological difficulties such as depression, difficulty in connecting with others and issues at work and school.
Are you pulling out your hair when stressed?
Many people suffering from trichotillomania describe a feeling of tension build up that is released through picking hair. When further dissecting the root of this tension, it often boils down to feelings of stress, anxiety or frustration. Even though you might be aware of how much you are stressed but often, the magnitude of the stress is not realized and also you are not able to know about the impact that it has on our mental and physical health.
The symptoms of hair-pulling disorder are as follows –
- Pulling out hair from eyebrows, genital area, eyelashes, beard or mustache when feeling stressed
- Bald patches of unusual shape may be seen on the head
- Feelings of low self-esteem and shame
It’s advised to consult a doctor and get the treatment as soon as possible before these symptoms get worse.
Homeopathy treatment
Homeopathy is one of the best and safest treatments for trichotillomania as it provides long-term relief with long-lasting results. The best part is that homeopathic medicines do not have any side-effects. Homeopathic medicines target the body as well as the mind. As trichotillomania is a stress-related ailment that affects both the mind and the body, the holistic approach of homeopathy is effective. Homeopathic remedies are prescribed and given only after considering certain factors such as the patient’s medical history, nature and temperament among other relevant factors.
