  1. Without making this too long: my dd8 had been off all antibiotics and herbal treatments for months- successfully ended 2nd grade with a beautiful report card (and hard work.) Not 'cured', not 'perfect', she is 'she'. We had an uptick in OCD with getting stuck on topics, and while she has always picked any scab on her body, she began earnestly picking skin MOLES on her body- off, and bloody, about 7 total and going. Of course, I found this alarming- tried band-aids, positive incentive if she could stop, skin cancer conversations about Dr.s = no stopping, seemed a true compulsion. Tried an Azithromycin Z-pack = no change. Read up on Trich. and NAC- older posts from this board, and here are a few studies: http://med.stanford.edu/ism/2012/may/nac.html http://www.trich.org/treatment/NAC_Trichotillomania.html I began using a 600 mg pill 2x a day, and now PharmaNac 1x a day (900 mg) and 1 600 mg day capsule. Within 1 week, ALL of the skin/mole picking stopped, they are almost entirely healed. Too soon to tell, but it seems the repetitive thoughts are reducing. She said this morning out of the blue: I'm no longer afraid of my bedroom window, yeah, I can just lay there. She is double A1298C, and Epsom salt baths and magnesium sulfate cream massages have always been beneficial in the past. NAC may pose issues for sulfur challenged folks. However, it raises glutathione.
