I probably didn't capture the seriousness by using the term 'bad habit', but I wanted to somehow distinguish the ability to replace the behavior (I love the idea of you crocheting booties), versus a dissociative state that precedes or follows self-injury (although trichotillomania is considered a type of self-injury, I believe). maybe there is a spectrum like a lot of other disorders. take care, judy
