Why I Pull Out My Eyebrows/Eyelashes...

It's BFRB (Body Focused Repetitive Behavior) Week! Every year I want to make a video talking about my experience with Trichotillomania, but totally forget which week is the awareness week (October 1 - 7).

BFRB is an umbrella name for impulse control behaviors involving compulsively damaging one's physical appearance or causing physical injury. This includes skin picking, skin biting, cheek biting, tongue biting, inner lip biting, nail biting, nail picking, hair cutting and hair pulling.

I started pulling out my eyelashes/eyebrows when I was about 10 years old, meaning I've had trichotillomania for 16 years! I hope that by sharing my experience I can somehow help raise awareness and make others with these behaviors feel less alone!

Do you also experience any of the body focused repetitive behaviors? Please share your experience in the comments below! I'm always amazed by how many people experience it, and it helps me to see that I'm not alone too!
