****My 6-year-old son makes the whole video even funnier and better. And catching a guest laughing. See below for detailed information..****

      The video you all have been waiting for, revealing to the world my trichotillomania at it's worst. Stress has made it worse than ever before and it has been to control myself especially when I'm using the computer, watching TV, get upset, for laying in bed trying to go to sleep; even when I realize what I'm doing I can't (or maybe don't want to) stop. And the sessions of hair pulling has lasted hours and you can be you see me playing with my hair 95% of the time I'm awake. And my son (age 6 now) even had shown signs/interest in playing and twisting his hair very very young (months old) fortunately we have been able to stop a lot of that behavior. But the difference between him and I are is it wasn't talked about a lot when I was young and help ashamed about it and with him, I am honest, talking about trich and everything else in hopes he doesn't have the same hard childhood as I because of my hair pulling.

      Besides sharing with you all very personal things with you I'm also dyeing my hair blonde, well trying to dye blonde but it isn't easy to go from dark brown to blonde with at-home hair dye by GARNIER FRUCTIS called "Garnier Nourishing Color Creme #82 'Champagne Blonde' (Champagne Fizz)"((and probably shouldn't have been used on someone with such dark brown hair)). Even when using 30 volume creme developer by Salon Care to help make it work better for those with dark hair. 

     *This video took me a very long time to edit even though I filmed it 6 days ago. I am still learning to use the Wondershare Filmora video editing and trying out new things and messing up stuff made it take longer than I expected, I probably worked on this project for about 30 or more (didn't keep count). But in this video, I tried out speeding up lots of scenes and it was tricky and took a lot of time and had to pay close attention*

      My 6-year-old son (whos always acting like a guff ball being silly trying to make others laugh) makes an appearance about halfway through that makes it more fun. Plus my phone ended up picking up a ghost laughing about the 21 min mark. I know that I didn't hear filming nor when I first played it back but when I was editing all the footage that's when I heard this creepy laugh that was louder than me. And the only editing I did before uploading it to YouTube was cut scenes, put them together, adding background music, and turned the volume on each clip. Even when I took all other sounds out of the scene it was still there. All I know is that THAT laughing shouldn't have been in the video nor do I know how or understand how things not of this world can be invisible to the naked eye but sometimes catching them using some kind of electronic/recording devices.

      So please give this video a BIG THUMBS UP and SHARE it with your friends, others need to know they are not alone and there are others just like them struggling with mental disorders. I want to help others, and someone who has beaten trich or other BFRB can help some in need who are struggling with it. Maybe if I had the same opportunity as what I'm trying to provide maybe I make not still be struggling with it as bad. But I have never known anyone else with trich or BFRF (Body-Focused Repetitive Behavior) and truly understood what I was and am going through day after day.
