A week or so and no pulling hair
This is the longest streak I've been on since April. I'm trying not to count the days too much. It puts too much pressure on me. I"m trying to just relax and enjoy this.
My hair in the bad spots is feeling softer and baby fine. The hairs on top are growing and sticking straight out though. (Yes, the top of my head was getting bad again...which was my worst fear. I hated being bald on the top. I'm glad I've been able to stop myself.)
I still don't understand why this happens, but I'm feeling great and I'm going to enjoy it for as long as it lasts. And when the urges return, I'm going to fight it for all I'm worth.
Until next time.

Good for you! Just take things one day at a time or one hour at a time if you need to. Keep on fighting.
