			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Check out Abby’s latest article on Trichotillomania in Going Bonkers August 2010 issue.</p>
<p>Here is an excerpt from the article:</p>
<p><em>Most hair pullers are bright, insightful, highly sensitive and intuitive souls constantly straddling two worlds; the world of a functioning, successful individual and the secret world of their seemingly never-ending urges to pull “just one more hair”. The extraordinarily successful businesswoman may be negotiating a multi-million dollar deal with you while her mind is split between what you’re seeing and the inner realm of her urges. She wants to sit on her hands to keep them from reaching to her head. She wants to force herself to stop her crazy desires, but she’s unable.<span id="more-1758"></span></em></p>
<p><em>The vast majority are female children and adults; often hiding behind makeup, wigs, weaves, hats and false eyelashes. They love to pull and hate it all at the same time. The sensations associated with hair pulling feel great to a hair puller but the aftereffects wreak havoc on their self-esteem and ultimately sever them from themselves, harshly damaging their self-relationship.</em></p>
<p><em>Relentless habits like hair pulling are self-harming addictions and like all bad habits, compulsions and addictions, on some level they help the sufferer to better tolerate his or her unconscious inner conflicts.</em></p>
<p>Abby also provides eight great tips on helping you with your compulsive hair-pulling.</p>
<p>Check it out today!</p>
