I have a unstoppable urge of pulling my own hair but I control it most of the time what should I do to stop this urge?

Dear lybrate user. I can understand. Trichotillomania is a disorder that involves recurrent, irresistible urges to pull out hair from your scalp, eyebrows or other areas of your body, despite trying to stop. Cbt (cognitive behavioral therapy), dbt (dialectical behavior therapy), and act (acceptance and commitment therapy) components are used for best treatment results. I suggest these therapies online. Feel free to contact me. Take care.
