View submission: Hoping for Support
Thank you so much for this kind and thoughtful reply. Like most people with Trich, I really struggle to be kind to myself and I beat myself up a lot. It’s crazy that a stranger on the internet can be nicer to me than I am to myself and it’s a good reminder to be more gentle with myself.
How has your pulling been going? Is there any one thing you’ve found that helps you the most? Message me any time for support if you’re having a rough day.
You really have no idea how much these kind words and optimism mean to me right now. Thank you.

what’s crazy is i can be genuinely supportive and loving to people but just like you can’t always give it to myself. right now i’ve gone two days without pulling or picking which for me is a record that i haven’t done both for this amount of time. but it’s also hard bc my substitution is snapping rubber bands and my hands are hurting and i’m running out of bands! also, i miss doing it..... it’s crazy to write that i miss ripping out my pubes for hours a day lol.
i’m happy to hear it brought you some kindness, i hope all goes well for you! if you ever want to talk i am also here, i’ll take you up on your offer too sometime:)
