OCD/BFRB/BDD

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

   Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health disorder that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and occurs when a person gets caught in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images, or urges that trigger intensely distressing feelings. Compulsions are behaviors an individual engages in to attempt to get rid of the obsessions and/or decrease his or her distress.

Most people have obsessive thoughts and/or compulsive behaviors at some point in their lives, but that does not mean that we all have “some OCD.” In order for a diagnosis of obsessive compulsive disorder to be made, this cycle of obsessions and compulsions becomes so extreme that it consumes a lot of time and gets in the way of important activities that the person values.

Body focused repetitive behaviors

 Body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB) is a general term for a group of related disorders that includes hair pulling, skin picking, and  nail-biting.  These behaviors are not habits or tics; rather, they are complex disorders that cause people to repeatedly touch their hair and body in ways that result in physical damage. (bfrb.org) 

Types of BFRBs: 

 

  • Trichotillomania – Hair Pulling
  • Excoriation Disorder – Skin Picking
  • Onychophagia – Nail Biting
  • Onychotillomania – Nail Picking
  • Trichophagia – Hair Eating, Trichobezoars (hairballs) can form in the stomach or bowel,  which can cause life threatening complications.
  • Dermatophagia – Skin Eating as a result of Skin Picking
  • Lip Biting
  • Cheek Biting
  • Tongue Chewing
  • Trichotemnomania – Compulsive hair cutting
