Back on track

yesterday’s meeting went well.  I’ve been doing a little better resisting the urges to pull my hair lately.   We came up with a good rewards/goal system yesterday.  For every block of time during the day that I don’t pull (4 hour blocks), I get 1 point.   When I have 50 points, I will treat myself to a massage at the end of the week.   Realistically, I can’t afford to do it more than twice a month, so thats why the points number is high.  So far it’s been helping to keep me motivated.  I also put a big note to myself on my bathroom wall next to my mirror, “FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!”  and that’s been helping to keep me reminded.  My roommate has no idea it’s about my trichotillomania, so it’s great.that’s the report for now.  Wish me luck!
