I have finally reached the end of my tether with DS12s trich. It started when he was 2 wenwere told he would grow out of it he didn't. Then we were told to give him fidget toys, they dont work because his brain makes him want to pull his hair out fiddling with toys isnt the same. We were told not to draw attention to it nothing changed. We were told to calmly point out to DS when he was doing it it didn't work. We were told iys because he is anxious/stressed he went to see a therapist nothing changed. He has a huge bald spot almost permanently right at the front of his head. Touch wood so far after starting Comp in September he hasn't been bullied about it but I feel it's only a matter of time. He doesnt seem to care but then he very rarely verbalises any emotions so maybe he does. All the online help seems to be USA based and hinges around buying wigs for girls with trich and taking a supplement called NAC but I cant find if this is actually safe or not. I just need help and support and the GP is useless and I dont know where to turn.
