Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment Of Trichotillomania
Article by Frederick Penzel, Ph.D. examining cognitive therapy treatments.
http://www.homestead.com/westsuffolkpsych/trich_cbt.html

Extractions: The name trichotillomania (TTM) coined in 1889 by Francois Henri Hallopeau, is in itself an unfortunate and misleading one. It seems to pigeonhole the disorder with other unrelated problems such as kleptomania, pyromania, etc. In addition, it seems to imply an enjoyment and attraction on the part of sufferers to pursue their hair pulling activities. Those who have the disorder understand that this obviously is not true. The term 'mania' itself seems to suggest a serious mental illness. The gap between what the drugs can and cannot do can be bridged by behavioral therapy. Over the years, many assorted techniques for treating TTM have been tried, with little or no success. These would include psychoanalysis, biofeedback, relaxation training, aversion therapy, etc. I have heard a few isolated reports of the successful use of hypnosis, but only a few small studies are available on its effectiveness. Although more formal scientific studies of the use of behavioral therapy for TTM remain to be done, it appears that it is the most effective treatment that we possess. TTM is an extremely complex disorder with many potential inputs. It is my own hypothesis, and that of others, that TTM is the result of a dysfunction of a mechanism that regulates levels of stimulation within the central nervous system. People seem to pull when they are either overstimulated (stressed, anxious, or excited) or when understimulated (bored or inactive). Obviously, there are many things that can influence a person's stimulation levels. This is why there does not appear to be one single technique, approach, or device that can relieve the problem. TTM appears to respond best to an approach made of a number of different components.

http://www.trichsters.com/

Extractions: Support Trichotillomania Australia - Canberra Trichsters Welcome to Trichsters , the site dedicated to helping those with trichotillomania, otherwise known as the hair pulling disorder. Trichotillomania (trich for short) affects approximately 1% to 3% of the population which is at least 20,000 people in Australia, although some studies indicate the percentage to be much greater than this. It is defined as the recurrent pulling out of ones hair, either from the scalp, eyelashes, eyebrows on anywhere else on the body. It is currently classed as an impulse control disorder and is thought to be related to obsessive-compulsive disorder. Unfortunately there has been little research done in Australia on the subject but in the USA there have been articles and even books published on trichotillomania. There is even a documentary called Bad Hair Life available to purchase from the Trichotillomania Learning Centre (TLC) in the USA. The emotional effects of having trich can be devastating. Sufferers feel tremendous shame and guilt and often go to great lengths to hide their disorder. It is not uncommon for trichsters to wear wigs, hats, scarves or bandanas every single day. Some people never tell their friends or family about their problem because they are afraid of the reaction it will cause. Many sufferers do not talk about the subject or seek help.

http://www.npi.ucla.edu/caap/Trichotillomania.htm

Extractions: Trichotillomania Treatment The primary treatment approach for Trichotillomania is habit reversal training combined with stress management and behavioral contracting. Treatment begins with self-monitoring of hair-pulling episodes as well as the feelings and situations that are most likely to lead to hair pulling. Youngsters are then systematically taught a new behavior, for example, squeezing a ball or tightening their fist, that they are to do whenever they feel the urge to pull. Relaxation training and other stress management techniques are used to diminish hair-pulling urges, while reward charts help children track their progress and earn small rewards for treatment gains. home anxiety problems studies treatment ... contact us
