Trichotillomania and medication overview

Medication can be quite effective in reducing the urge to pull to a more manageable and less stressful level although in some cases people have reported that medication stopped the urge to pull altogether. It is important to work with a professional, such as a GP or a psychiatrist, who understands what Trich is and the appropriate treatment of it. Don't be afraid of asking the treater questions about his/her knowledge of this disorder since not everyone will have the same level of knowledge or experience with this.
