| 'The
fact is that trying
to use
drugs and
medications just
isn't a working as a treatment
for curing this condition, as these chemicals only serve to dull the
senses of the sufferer against the stimuli which causes the behavior.
Sure, while the drugs are taking affect, the effect is that the
symptoms are halted - but what
happens when the
drug wears off? Do you still have trichotillomania?
Yes, of course you do. And until you can rid yourself of this condition, the medications you can take as a treatment for it will only mask it away from obvious view. It's still there, waiting for the drugs to wear off before you're at its mercy again. The dependency you fall into, in relying upon the drugs to keep the effects away, have just become another form of slavery. This is where behavioral therapy comes in. Of the two main therapies that are used as trichotillomania treatment techniques - drug therapies and behavioral therapies - it is the behavioral type which has shown the most stellar results among sufferers, making thousands become completely rid of this condition with no recurrences whatsoever. The most effectual type of behavioral therapy is known as "behavioral substitution"or "behavioral replacement" therapy. |

Some
forms of this have
actually helped
countless sufferers begin to see immediate effects within mere minutes.
As awareness of trichotillomania and this treatment of it spreads, more
and more people are changing from the habit of taking powerful and
potentially harmful serotonergic antidepressants (interestingly, the
same type given to OCD patients) and neuroleptic drugs (antipsychotics)
to take on this breakthrough technique of behavioral therapy. For
trichotillomania sufferers, this is the treatment to end it all, and
for good. Perhaps the simplest and most private means of utilizing this technique (and the most inexpensive) is through behavioral augmentation video sessions. Using precisely this method, thousands have started on their path to ridding themselves of trichotillomania, with treatment sessions taking immediate effect, even within the first ten minutes. The concept is inordinately simple, and there are absolutely no drugs needed of any kind whatsoever. Have you got ten minutes to spare? |
