Episode #5Tactics (II)Updated: 1 day ago“The mirror is low key an enemy.. Looking at myself close up in the mirror helps me to zero in on certain hairs (to pull out)... Its an area of weakness for me”In this week’s episode, we continue the conversation about the tactics the enemy uses to get us to pull. The significance of this episode lies in understanding what takes place within us and around us just before the pulling starts. The tingles, the closeness to a mirror, these are all tall tail signs something is about to happen. “You’ll want to put distance between yourself and the mirror… It's easier to catch it before you start going into the act”Just like in the game of chess, knowing what your enemy is going to do before they do it gives you a better chance to defend yourself. It’s important we use our words just as much as we use our actions to stop the pull. One without the other at this point is foolishness. Using our words wisely in these moments mixed with prayer (for an example, saying out loud "stop the pull in Jesus name") as we physically stop our hands from pulling is key. The Bible teaches us that we are not just flesh and bone/ bodies but we have a soul and a spirit. Our soul is our will, our emotions, our thoughts, personality, etc. and our spirit is one of two things, of God or not of God. Based on what we believe about God determines his spirit on us or not. We have a choice. However, just because someone chooses not to believe isn't going to stop the spirit realm from using or bullying them. Look at me, I believe in God and I'm still dealing with the same thing you are. Difference is, there is a real end in sight to trichotillomania over here and it won't cost you a thing.I want to hear from you!Whether it's a thought, a word of support, or if you want to tell your hair pulling story - scroll down to the bottom of this page and leave a comment.#stopthepull Hosted on Acast.
