My hair pulling is out of control. I’m doing so much damage to my skin, and I don’t know how to get better. I’ll go a few weeks without pulling until I can’t take it anymore—it feels like my brain itches. Does anyone else experience this feeling?

I’m meeting with my doctor about changing my medication— I’m currently taking Adderall and Wellbutrin and wonder if that has increased my hair pulling tendencies. Is there a medication to decrease hair pulling urges?

Not that I know of. Some say NAC, didn't do anything for me.
