Behind the scenes of a week running Trichy Nutrition - Trichotillomania Bloodwork Specialist around my kids, gym workouts, school drop-offs, school pick-ups, cooking, cleaning and my usual Mum tasks 💁‍♀️

27 voice/text conversations supporting current clients through their recovery.

8 video sessions this week. 2 new clients in their first session, 3 blood test analysis consultations & 8 personalised treatment plans written.

10 posts written & shared with 4.2k followers on FB & 1800+ on IG.

8 followers purchased the Trichy Nutrition Starter Protocol to begin their Trich recovery.

28 parents showed interest in joining a Parenting Support community to learn everything they can from me in private group. I then spent hours prepping & planning so that I could bring this to you in the most affordable & effective way.

39 conversations with followers who have messaged me for more information or questions about my Trich recovery approach.

And many of my clients are messaging with great results for their daughters. One explained that she feels like the grey cloud isn’t following her around anymore and the other said her urges to pull have drastically reduced.

And our little 5yo (story shared last week) with all her eyelashes back; Mum said “she’s still going strong” 💪

Lots to celebrate 🙌 🥳

Lots more work to be done to keep getting this help to more people and to keep getting results for as many as possible.

DM or Comment ‘RECOVERY’ to get details about our program and to find out how i can help you or your child overcome hair pulling.

“WHY DOES LEAD KEEP SHOWING UP IN MY TRICH CLIENTS?”

I’ve reviewed 50+ functional heavy-metal tests from people with Trichotillomania this year.
And there is ONE metal that keeps getting my attention.

LEAD. 🚩

Not once, not twice, not even 95% of them. ALL of them!!!

Now before anyone jumps to conclusions:
Am I saying lead causes Trichotillomania? NO.

We don’t have research showing that.
But here’s why I find the pattern so damn interesting…

Lead is a neurotoxin.
Research has associated lead exposure with disruption of neurotransmitter systems, including dopamine, and with differences in attention, hyperactivity, impulsivity and inhibitory control.
And then we look at Trichotillomania.

Research suggests Trich involves altered reward and habit circuitry, and researchers have even described two different components of pulling:

“WANTING” the pull — the urge, craving, searching and anticipation.

versus

“LIKING” the pull — the reward or gratification afterwards.

And dopamine is particularly interesting in that wanting/seeking side of reward.

So here’s the question going around in my head:
What happens when a neurotoxin capable of disrupting dopamine and other neurotransmitter systems meets a brain already vulnerable to repetitive reward-seeking and habit behaviours?
I DON’T KNOW.

And that’s the point.
I don’t have research showing me that lead is causing my clients to pull their hair.

But after seeing the same pattern over and over again, I sure as hell want to know WHY.
This is what looking at Trich through a different lens looks like.

Notice patterns.
Ask questions.
Connect dots.

And when we start treating these underlying issues, the pulling dissipates!!

Comment or DM ‘RECOVERY’ did our personalised program details. We can help stop the urge to pull.

I’m creating something special 💫🌈
Just for parents of kids with Trichotillomania.

We’ve opened registrations on the website with more information coming over the next week.

Our first group coaching session will be in the week starting 14th September.

I’m a huge advocate of early intervention. Helping parents halt hair pulling when children are young is key to preventing a life long struggle with this disorder.

Watch this space!!

I’m thinking about starting an online Parents Mentoring group. It would be just for parents of children with Trichotillomania. I’ll come in and help you with strategies, coping tools, education around diet/nutrition & supplements and answer questions around anything resolving Trich and helping your children overcome hair pulling.

I’m a big advocate of early intervention and I think if parents have access to this help, we can stop the long term struggles of this disorder.

I’m also a big believer of community & support and I think parents are overwhelmed by the amount of misinformation and negativity around this disorder. I think when the child is supported properly via family and nutrition, that stopping this hair pulling behaviour is possible for every child.

At this stage I’m seeing who would be interested in this group. I’m thinking of running a testing group from Sept-Dec to see how it works & what the needs of the participants are. It would be held inside a private group online. An online 1-2hr mentor session would be scheduled monthly (maybe twice monthly). All sessions to be recorded, so that it doesn’t matter which Timezone you live in. Trichy Nutrition resources will be shared in the group. And you can find support from other parents going through the same thing. A safe place to learn from others and from me.

Comment ‘PARENT’ if you’re interested in this Parenting Mentor Group Program. I’ll see if there’s interest before putting it all together.

Some of the WORST advice I’ve heard given to people with Trichotillomania…

❌ “She’ll grow out of it.”

Maybe she will. Maybe she won’t.
But waiting and hoping isn’t an investigation.

❌ “Let’s try this medication.”

Despite there being no FDA-approved medication specifically for Trichotillomania, and medication evidence (particularly in children) remaining limited.

❌ “You don’t need blood tests. It’s behavioural.”

This one REALLY gets me.
I’m not suggesting a blood test diagnoses Trichotillomania.
It doesn’t.
But why wouldn’t we want to know what else is happening in that person’s body?

Iron status.
B12 and folate.
Vitamin D.
Thyroid function.
Signs of inflammation.
Other symptoms that deserve investigating.

Even mainstream diagnostic guidance acknowledges that laboratory testing may sometimes be appropriate to investigate medical causes associated with hair loss.

And yes… behavioural therapy, particularly Habit Reversal Training, has some of the strongest evidence we currently have for Trichotillomania.
I am NOT against behavioural therapy.

I’m against pretending the conversation has to stop there.Why can’t we support the behaviour AND investigate the biology?

If you want to start investigating the underlying biological drivers of your hair pulling get in touch. DM or Comment ‘RECOVERY’ for more info.
