I always worry about others touching my hair, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello, I always worry about others touching my hair. In the past, I accidentally pulled out my hair with my own hands, and then I became very cautious in daily life, afraid of others touching my hair. Now, I don't even dare to touch my hair with my own hands. Could you please tell me how to overcome this psychological issue? Should I boldly try to overcome it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your situation falls under psychological fear, compounded by your own psychological suggestions, making you increasingly concerned. If you don't self-regulate, it will only worsen. I suggest you gradually try to change and first eliminate negative psychological thoughts. Hair can be touched, and there's no problem with it. Past experiences have left you with psychological shadows, and you need to slowly move past them. In reality, touching your hair won't make it fall out.
