ok,... from what i understand from that, is when u want something or when you're studying, you remove your hair from impatience or lack of concentration. You shouldn't do that, because it makes you look like a freak if u pull more hair out.. simply try to concentrate on the task at hand, and if you can't, do something else for the time being, and when you have enough concentration, go back to your initial task...

Yeah, not a good idea to pull your hair out. It's a nervous habit, of course. How about chewing on your fingernails? Or restyling your hair (ponytail, up, down, on one side, etc) without pulling it out? . . Otherwise, you could see your doctor about getting an antidespressant. I realize you're not depressed, but antidepressents help all sorts of things, and that's one of them. Talk to your doctor about it.

What you have is called trichotillomania. . . Defined-. Trichotillomania (TTM) or "trich" is an impulse control disorder characterised by the repeated urge to pull out scalp hair, eyelashes, beard hair, nose hair, pubic hair, eyebrows or other body hair. It may be distantly related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, with which it shares both similarities and differences. Trichotillomania has been mentioned as a disorder in very early historical records. Onset generally occurs at puberty. There is a strong stress-related component, that is, in low-stress environments some stop pulling altogether.. . You need Habit reversal training to learn how to stop
