Whenever I pull my hair, I can't move. I don't know why. It's like i'm stuck in one spot, just pulling out my hair. I would describe it to be gradual, at first I will multitask (pulling and doing whatever i'm doing) then i'll just focus on just pulling out my hair. I get really frustrated because in my head i'm telling myself to stop and move but it takes me forever to break out of an episode so I can actually move on and get back to whatever it was I was doing. It's even worse if it's making me late for school or somewhere to be.
My school mornings go a bit like this:
I'll be tying up my hair up in front of the mirror and i'll notice a small strand poking out of my head. This one strand then brings me to the whole 'it's just one, it'll be fine' and then I will proceed to pull others because i'm like 'just one more'. Before I know it, i've wasted a good 20 minutes and I have created another baldy patch.
A/N: It get's me every time.
