About the developer:
I am a 24 year old computer science student who suffers from Trichotillomania since the age of 11. Mostly my hair has been pulled from my eyebrows. Currently I don't have any eyebrows at all and have been told that a good way to track my pulling is by using a journal to document when, where etc. As most people don't carry journals around and they carry cell phones, I thought it would be a good idea to make an app for it. If anyone has any features they want me to add please email me at codycondon50@gmail.com.

Here is a description on Trichotillomania from Mental Health America.

Trichotillomania is a body-focused repetitive behavior classified as an impulse control disorder (along the lines of pyromania, kleptomania, and pathologic gambling) which involves pulling out one's hair. Hair pulling may occur in any region of the body in which hair grows but the most common sites are the scalp, eyebrows, and eyelids.

Occurring more frequently in females, it is estimated that 1%-2% of adults and adolescents suffer from Trichotillomania. In general, Trichotillomania is a chronic condition that will come and go throughout an individual’s life if the disorder is not treated. For some individuals, the disorder may come and go for weeks, months, or years at a time.
