Success Stories: Defining Recovery
|
TLC is often asked, "Does anyone recover from TTM?" However you choose to define recovery, the answer is: Yes. People have stopped pulling entirely. People do find love and acceptance. People do grow back their hair. People can talk openly about it. People with trich do play sports, go to school, marry, have children, build successful careers and even participate in beauty pageants. People do live happy lives while pulling. We don't always hear from these people, because trich has ceased to be the center of their lives. Many people who reach recovery do not continue to participate in chats or conferences or support groups. However, others find that continuing to participate in these activities helps them to maintain recovery. We hope the success stories offered in the column at right give you encouragement.... |
