I wonder if she has trichochinchillamania and takes it a step further........... :laughing6::rofl:

They were talking about it on the radio this morning.

Her disorder takes it one step further than pulling out, includes eating, and is called pica (http://www.emedicine.com/ped/topic1798.htm).

TRICHOTILLOMANIA (http://hairloss.about.com/od/trichotillomania/The_Hair_Pulling_Disorder_Trichotillomania.htm)
