My son is 13 years old.He has ADD,and i don't know if his ADD has caused him to pull his hair but for some reason the first time he pulled his hair it was a place as big as your whole hand and was completly bald.I had him on several medications and thought it was side affects from them.but then i took him off the meds he still has times where he pulls his hair just in spots as big as a dime or a little bigger.I just noticed yesturday that he has picked his hair again but this time it was not just hair,he had gotten into the meat now its like a small dip in his scalp.Please if anyone knows what i can do to help my son with this problem please let me know.I took him to see his doctor when he first did the big area and his doctor told me to cut his hair real short to let people see the spots so it would inbarrass him and then he wouldn't pull his hair and more.so i did and it didnt work.so if you have any ideas to help him please let me know asap..thanks Kathy
