[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 440948, member: 4264"] Thanks Susie. I am going to enjoy it :). I'm definitely going to look into some funky hair color options next time I'm out and about. I will never bleach my black hair, it would feel such a betrayal to my hair lol. But the red chunks I had put in were those "fun colors" that were super bright, so the red showed without bleach. I'll have to hunt to find nifty products to work on black hair. It would also perhaps hide the whites that I just wish would have held off a few more years ;). I hadn't thought of the trich that way although by the time I was 20 or so I had readily identified the trigger as the period of time living with my father. The weight gain as well and in 2006 when I had gastric bypass it was after several years of intense work on my inner demons so to speak, regarding that period of my life. I finally felt able to overcome my horrid over eating habits and stop using food as a balm for my raw emotions. By working through so many issues that had kept me "down" re: Him, I was ready to lose that cloak of weight and it was only then that I knew I was a good candidate for that surgery. So you may have something there with that theory re: the trich. I had never had easy prior to age 11, living with my un diagnosis bipolar mother who was prone to mania and hallucinations etc so anxiety I'm sure was always a part of my life. But until that period at my fathers house, nothing like this exhibited in my behaviors. You've given me good food for thought here and I thank you. I knew the pulling was related initially but I never thought of it in the sense that perhaps now that last coping crutch for anxiety might be stripped away and unneeded now that it seems certain his life is about to be spent in prison until his last days.
