Trich Talks!

Sydney @syd_.44 is a college student who has lived with trichotillomania since she was a child. Throughout her journey she has focused on advocacy, sharing her experience with those closest to her as well as those she hasn’t met yet by being on this podcast. Sydney's main message is this: trichotillomania is something she has but it does not determine her beauty or self-worth and it doesn’t have to determine those things for you either. You can live a beautiful life while living with trichotillomania or any other mental health disorder.

Christina @beachmamablog is a mom blogger who shares about her mental health to help shed light on topics that are often ignored. Christina began her body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB) journey by developing trichotemnomania (the hair-cutting disorder) which ultimately led her to trichotillomania (the hair-pulling disorder). Although her BFRBs once caused her immense shame, Christina has been able to shed the shame and share her story with the world. Christina wants everyone but especially other mothers to know that there is a community out there that is ready to support you and she is part of it!
