What age group is trichotillomania common in?
Some young children between the ages of 1-5 can have trichotillomania but almost always outgrow it. For people who have trichotillomania over a long period of time or who are lifetime sufferers, it usually begins at puberty. Trichotillomania is also most common in females.
Why do you have trichotillomania?
Currently, psychologists think that it is caused by an emotional unbalance. People without trichotillomania are able to regulate their stress and boredom (overstimulation and understimulation) whereas people with trichotillomania seem to be incapable of balancing these out naturally. Therefore, they turn to pulling for the balace that they need. Hope this helps!
Trichotillomania is plucking at one's hair What is the medical term for plucking at the bedclothes?
To be honest I have no idea what the term for plucking at bedclothes is. However, people with trichotillomania can also have the "craving" to pull hair from pets, blankets, etc. I guess it would go under the same category for someone with trichotillomania but for someone who doesn't have the disorder I really don't know... Hope this helps!
