I was watching an 18 year old woman in the UK on BlogTV, as she talked and
pulled on her hair. She has a bald patch on the side of her head. I felt
sorry for her.

I used to have hair twirling before adding olanzapine to
my lithium (I am bipolar) but not hair pulling, at
least not very strong pulling.

They don't even realize they're doing it. Odd behavior, but so are
delusions and hallucinations.

I saw an STNG episode called "Night Terrors." It included a captain's log
where a female captain was pulling on her hair, repeatedly.
