Anyone else coping with upcoming meltdowns by changing their appearance impulsively?

Shaving your eyebrows, cutting your hair short... Sometimes I love the result; most often, I can't stop what I'm doing, and I end up miserable and feeling hideous.

I guess I do this as a way to escape from myself, as I have this weird urge to crawl out of my body when I'm overwhelmed.

Has anyone else ever experienced this?
