Hi, I have daughter which is 13 years old and I have noticed that she is constantly picking her hair. I am afraid that she will lose her hair on these spot where shi is picking it. I have tried to tell her to stop it but after some time she started again. I don't know what to do and I hope someone had similar experience.

Hi, I am afraid that your daughter is suffering from trichotillomania disorder where people have obsessive need to pick hair from their scalp, eyebrows or some other place on the body. Sometimes the urge they feel is just unstoppable. There are two ways of treatments for this disorder; one is cognitive behavior therapy and the other is therapy with medications like Prozac or Zoloft.
