YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The body focused repetitive behaviors (BFRB) of hair pulling (trichotillomania), onychotillomania (nail biting), and excoriation (skin picking) are closely associated with each other and are grouped with obsessive-compulsive disorders. Although only 1-3% of the population meet formal criteria for problematic levels of these behaviors, up to two thirds of people engage in some of these behaviors, some of the time, often during periods of stress. These behaviors closely resemble grooming behaviors in rodents and primates.
