This post seems odd on a blog called Modern Day Tricha, but this is an important shift in perspective.
I do not see myself as a Tricha anymore. A small reason is that I do not pull as much as I did before; it does not rule my life like it did previously, but this is not the main reason. Truly, it is because it used to be my focus. I was constantly thinking about it and constantly trying to fight. Trich was ever-present in my mind.
Now I don't think about it much. Trich does not rule my life. As I said, yes, I don't pull as much, but it isn't my focus. I try not to set goals of "I won't pull today" because it puts too much pressure on me and I get upset with myself when I can't do it. Instead I don't think about my hair! I do try to not mess with my hair, but it's not about "not pulling". Instead I just leave my hair alone in general and focus on other things!
UGH! This isn't making any sense and is totally not helpful! If I had read this a few years ago I would have been so frustrated with the author...
I know this is slightly repetitive from my most recent post last year around this time, but I still believe it and stand by it.
