Impulsive behavior

My eight year old keeps cutting her hair and recently cut her eyelashes and eyebrows. I have tried talking, punishment, and am now at the end of my rope. The first occasion was done at home many months ago, but the recent occurrences have happened at school. I ask her why and she has no answer.

Maybe this post on a depression forum will help?  I like the idea of writing down the feelings that come before cutting the hair.
