This ziploc bag is not working for me.
As with most tactics I take on to battle the trich, the idea and the execution were very successful for the first week or so, but my brain begins to conquer it somehow, and I am back to square one. Yesterday, I did keep some hairs in a bag, but as the day progressed, I noticed myself throwing them away without putting them in the bag, like my mind had had enough.
Maybe I get discouraged when I don't see a noticable change fast enough, but whatever the reason, my ziploc attempts are fading. If I had to guess, i'd say my breaks were the highest day yet, I felt like I was non-stop breaking. Pulls would have been quite high as well.
I met with Barb in the afternoon & we determined that most of the typical behaviour therapies, such as aversion, are not successful options for me so we are going to try something a little different.
As I mentioned last week, I am starting to read the book "Brain Lock". I am only about 60 pages in, but before we meet next I need to be done this book. One technique I have never tried is attempting to beat my other OCD's in hopes that it will correlate to my trich. In "Brain Lock", they have a 4 step process that has proven successful. If I can learn these steps, apply them to all my other crazies, then maybe it will somehow positively effect & carry onto my trich.
It is worth giving it a shot, so that is the new plan. One of these have to work!
