[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 500048, member: 77"] Zaftigmama, you are quite right. Because of what you wrote, I googled "trichotillomania" and Wikipedia describes it as pulling out the hair, not twiddling. So I stand corrected, and apologise if I have misled anyone. You are right, what is described here sounds much more like a tic. Mind you, when I went to a support group for it, there were some people who just twiddled and felt that they belonged in that support group. But Wikipedia's information is so detailed and definite. It definitely "talks" to me, and I personally find it quite alarming. But that's quite another story! Sorry for misleading anyone. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
