Just curious if anyone has some knowledge on OCD and Impulse Control Disorders. Trichotillomania (hair pulling) especially. They're rather intriguing subjects to me, but this is not my area of expertise. Thanks in advance!

Go to www.pubmed.com and enter "Trichotillomania" (I got 516 hits)

For DSM criteria and general information, you may want to check out www.behavenet.com and search for "Trichotillomania" or "Impulse-Control Disorders."

There's also a growing literature on pathological gambling, which you can also search for on www.pubmed.com
