What would my life be like without trichotillomania?
It wouldn't take me 30 minutes to put my hair in a ponytail because I always hate the way it looks. I could have bangs. I wouldn't instinctively look into every mirror or reflective surface I pass by. I might not have depression, which means I wouldn't constantly worry. I wouldn't feel like I'm not good enough. I might be able to see this "beautiful girl" that lives in my body that I've heard about. I might be happier.
It's a big question, and I'll never know what life would actually be like for me. But. I like to imagine.
