This might not be alopecia areata In alopecia areata there will be absolute patch of baldness . But here there are hair shafts . More over there are no well defined margins , it is diffuse . Patient is known case of some psychiatric illness. So mostly in favour of trichotillomania .@Raman Kumar @Johnson Sameer
