Reading from The Trichster Diaries: Just a Kiss—I'm Glad

In this episode of Trich Talks, Barbara opens up The Trichster Diaries and takes you back to her teenage years—the awkward, emotional, unforgettable moments of growing up with trichotillomania. She shares raw memories, especially the nerves and fear she felt around things like kissing, because of her bald spots. If you’ve ever felt held back because of your BFRB or unsure how to let someone see the real you, this episode is a gentle reminder that you are not alone.
