What can be done to stop the habit of eating my hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: These nervous habits such as nail biting, hair pulling, etc can be broken with discipline. Just do not do it. You are going to end up with a giant hair ball in your stomach which one day may require surgical removal.
