How can I cure my Trichotillomania and panic attacks?
I suffer from Trichotillomania (an OCD) and it is getting worse. I also have anxiety nervosa and panic attacks. I have seen my doctor and I’ve been on Zoloft for 2 years now. I’ve also seen a Psychologists and tried various diets. I know my disorder relates to post traumatic stress. I exercise regularly which helps in some ways. Maybe I should try accupuncture or hyponotherapy. What is the most effective way besides trying to deal with my hurts and depression?

Therapy. Have you tried paxil, it is FDA approved now for PTSD. I think you need an anxiolytic for the anxiety. I am all for alternative therapies, whatever works.
Trichotillomania is pretty rare, I have only seen a couple of cases (5) in 20 years
If you think the Zoloft isn’t working well enough, talk to your doctor. There are other medications that can be tried. Maybe therapy in combination with medication will help.
