Understanding Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours (BFRBs) and Overcoming Stigma

This video delves into Body Focused Repetitive Behaviours (BFRBs), discussing their nature and the common types such as nail-biting, hair pulling, and skin picking. The speakers share their lived experience and personal journeys with these common but poorly understood conditions; emphasising the stigma and shame associated with BFRBs. The video aims to raise awareness and reduce the stigma surrounding these disorders, highlighting the importance of recognition and support for individuals affected. BFRBs are often the misdiagnosed and there is a lack of awareness among health professionals. Ultimately, we hope that this video conveys a message of hope, stating that help is available, and individuals with BFRBs are not alone. 00:00 What are BFRBs? - Jude Stevenson 00:24 The shame we carry - Clare Mackay 00:44 Personal journey with hair pulling - Aneela Idnani 01:34 The Emotional Impact of BFRBs - Pavitt Thatcher 02:06 Raising Awareness and Seeking Help - Angela Neal-Barnett 02:30 The Fight for Recognition - Bridget Bradley This video was recorded by The Mental Elf at the 2024 Oxford BFRB Conference #OxBFRBconf organised by BFRB UK and Ireland and the University of Oxford.
