A journey with my daughter as we both come to terms with a disorder known as Trichotillomania.

The Trichotillomania Puzzle
Trichotillomania really is puzzling! It's definitely something that you think is gone one day, then it's back the next. We've been doing a lot to help our daughter figure out how to manage this; Naturopathic Doctor, Behavior Therapist, fidget toys, reward system, diet change... you name it!
One thing she has REALLY taken to is doing puzzles. Thank goodness for the dollar store! She can do 100 piece puzzles by herself now, and is always ambitious to start on a new one. We have even let her keep her bandaids off during the day because she has been so into her puzzles and she said "it keeps my hands busy" Oh she is so darn smart!
