• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

I've stopped this habit because, and i know it sounds silly, i don't want to cause inconvenience to my future self in case she's in a better headspace than I am. Hair takes a long time to grow and I've already lost a significant amount. I don't want to take it from her because of my lack of self control. I don't want a future, better version of me to be upset so the current miserable one can get a quick fix.

I hope that you manage to quit, pulling hair sucks.
It doesn't feel like much until it is.

That really sounds like it would hurt. I never pulled my hair but it is thinning due to my age. (I bet I could be your grandma! 😉) It is really nice that you have hope for your future self and want her to do well. It is good to be kind to yourself. I hope you can get past pulling. You sound like a lovely young lady.

The smart ass in me wants to say that is a very ineffective method.
The serious side is glad you are stopping. I will guess this is stress related. There are better ways to handle stress. Is there anyone you can talk to about this issue? Any method to.process this is a less damaging way
Keep venting if needed. There sre good people here.
