More on trich.org:
"The TLC Annual Conference literally saved my life...I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me a second chance at having a normal life."
"The conference was awesome and a tremendous awakening for my daughter. In 7 years, she never wanted to say the word trichotillomania, yet at the conference she stood at the podium and took ownership of her struggle in front of all the attendees. She no longer wants to live a secret."
"Thank you so much for offering this conference to us. It is a blessing to learn I'm not as crazy as I always thought I was. I go home with renewed excitement, hope, strategies and willingness to pursue the fight of my life!"
