I used to do that! It's ok, you'll grow out of it.

I accidentally had five fall out at once yesterday - I felt like I had something on my eyelash, so I rubbed it and five fell out, and I'm a bit worried that they'll all fall out now.

[and be glad they're not mine- they're stupidly long, and they get stuck on my sunglasses.]

I get the same thing. When I was at school and used the microscope I could see nothing but eyelashes!

I'm sure there's a name for doing things like that. The same when people keep trying to pull hair out of their head.

I've read that pulling out eye lashes, hair etc can be a form of self harm.....do you have any idea why you are doing it, or doing when you bored, just sitting down watching tv etc?

Mine used to come out v easily too, but it didn't last that long, they're ack to normal now, have the same number as before as far as I can tell. It might be some kind of diet thing, I really don't know I'm afraid,. but if it the same reason as it happened to me then it should sort itself out. The only thing I will say is try to leave them alone, fiddling with them can't help.
