Hosts Jose Alvear, LCSW, and advocate Ashley Robles are back with a more in-depth discussion about Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs). In this episode, we describe different types of BFRBs such as trichotillomania, skin picking, trichophagia and cheek biting, among others. We speak from our own personal journeys struggling with multiple BFRBs in order to emphasize the social and mental impact of these disorders. We also talk about the prevalence of BFRBs, their impact on self-care, and the need for education among mental health professionals.
