I had it way worse in high school. Once I went away to college and had roommates I reduced it a lot (bc I was around people and didn't want anyone to see). I still get roped into watching YouTube videos which gives me the "feeling" without doing it to myself.

Risperidone! Yes it's an anti psychotic but it is the one and only thing that has ever worked 100%. I stopped pulling for over 2 years. It works amazing! I was referred to a psychiatrist who has lead major university studies on trich. He was the one who prescribed it and I saw him for 7 years (I should actually go back seeing as I'm pulling again). I'm pregnant so I can't take the pills anymore. If you really want to stop i would seriously look into it.
