Winning from Trichotillomania

Interview with someone on learning to overcome Trichotillomania after almost 16 years. In it you will discover many wonderful insights. 

One of these insights clearly stood out, something she referred to as “half of the battle” and invites you to apply in your own life too if you suffer from this behavior.

Although it may seem that physical damage on the outside is an important reason for wanting help, what is often more devastating is what this behavior is doing on the inside at the core of our being. 

In this episode, Rik, who helped Paul after 11 years of pulling, is interviewing him on this topic plus important lessons learned in becoming free from this behavior. 

Here are some of the things you will learn in this interview: 

• The impact this behavior had on Paul before, beyond appearance. 
• How we are often not born but conditioned into behavior. 
• Why you cannot really hide this behavior towards others. 
• Why telling yourself not to pull does not help and how to do that differently. 
• What is at the core of this behavior. 
• What Rik told Paul at the start that really helped him. 
• The turning point for Paul in getting back control. 
• Focus on the outside versus focus on the inside. 
• How becoming free from this behavior carried forward in other areas of Paul’s life. 
• What learning to stop with hair pulling is really all about. 
• Paul’s and Rik’s key insights on what is required for change if you need help too.

In this episode of winning from Trichotillomania, someone who struggled for 5 years and pulled rather intensely reflects on the treatment that helped her change her behavior. 

In it, something important is addressed for everyone still struggling with this behavior. More specifically, we believe that you can’t overcome Trichotillomania unless you address this. 

It’s one of the main reasons why people have great difficulty with overcoming this behavior on their own and often fight themselves in vain for many years. 

But also something we believe everyone can learn to change with some loving and specialized support.

That not only allows you to set yourself free and feel like being yourself. But also to do better and enjoy more in daily life through a better self-esteem.

How through many disappointments over time in trying to quite pulling, either on her own and with professional help, it kind of felt impossible to her that freeing herself from this behavior was possible. 

But after speaking to Rik she decided to ask him for his help. Now, looking back, she reveals for the very first time how she believes it actually can be done. 

Not only for herself, but anyone struggling with this behavior.
