Description

Hello lovely viewers, I hope all of you are having a smooth week so far. On today's episode I talk a little bit about some of my BFRBs that I have--specifically my hair pulling and my lip biting. I've had this for many years now and have tried so many different behavioral adjustments to try to stop the pulling and biting. All to say, some work better than others and that you can never truly "stop" but only transform how, where, the extent, and how often you partake in these repetitive behaviors. I don't necessarily believe that people should teach themselves to stop their BFRBs but to figure out a way to stim how they want and need to without harming themselves/others. And I think it's totally possible to do so! It just may take time, openness to explore, and the acceptance of yourself & your needs. 聽聽With that being said, I wanted to talk about two specific products that has helped me with my hair pulling and lip biting. Although these products don't completely stop the BFRBs it does help! Hopefully it can help some of you out there as well, or at least open you up to trying it out.
