Tricks To Be Aware Of When You Pull

1. Hand Constrictions

Gloves, tape on your fingers, even fake nails help in making you aware of when you pull. You do it as a habit, but when you become aware of when you pull, you can break the pattern.

2. Hair Constrictions

Wear hats, scarves, your hair up, a clip in the specific area where you pull, put vasaline on your eyelashes or brows. Again, something to make you aware. If you change the texture of where you pull, you will notice when you go for it.

3. Change the environment in which you pull

If you pull in your bed, try sitting on the other end, try not sitting/lying in the position that you do when you pull. If you pull at a particular time in the day, try to occupy yourself. For instance, cooking is a good example. You cannto pull while you cook, and no one wants hair in their food.

You not only need to keep your hands busy, but your mind as well. If you pull while you study, perhaps try studying in a public place, like a cafe or library. If you tend to do it when you find yourself alone, or when reading or watching tv, try using constrictions.

4. Research it.

I find then when I feel I want to pull, I write about trich, or I do research. Im still thinking and reading about trich, but im becoming more aware, im not pulling. Even if its relapse stories, simply putting your mind to trich and not your hands, is a great help.

5. Write It.
Why do you want to pull? What will happen if you dont?
