  Hairpulling Tuesday 16 September 2003  
Trichotillomania is an obsessive compulsive disorder which affects over 2 million women. Today is National No pulling Hair day and we talk to a woman who has sucked, chewed and eaten her hair since she was 13.

Hypnotherapist, Ursula James from the London College of Clinical Hypnosis and Dr Rodney Dawber, Chairman of the Oxford Hair Foundation and Consultant Dermatologist, join Jenni to discuss this condition.
