In dieser Episode ist Prof. Dr. Christian Stierle, Verhaltenstherapeut und Professor für klinische Psychologie, zu Gast. In unserem Gespräch erklärt Christian u.a., was es mit der Compassion Focused Therapy auf sich hat, wie wichtig Mitgefühl - mit sich selbst und anderen - im Alltag ist und welche Bedeutung ihm in der Behandlung von psychischen Störungen zukommt, bei denen Scham und Schuldgefühle eine zentrale Rolle spielen. Es geht um Selbstkritik, den Umgang mit Emotionen und auch um die Frage, warum es (manchmal) so schwer ist, mit sich selbst und anderen mitfühlend umzugehen. Gegen Ende der Folge gibt es außerdem einige Ideen, wie sich dem Thema Compassion bzw. Mitgefühl nähern und erste Schritte im Alltag umsetzen kann. Buchempfehlungen (unbezahlte Werbung): Stierle, C.

Do you struggle with skin picking, hair pulling, nail biting, or other repetitive behaviors you just can't seem to stop? These actions, known as Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs), go far beyond “bad habits” and can have deep emotional and psychological roots. But what causes them? And more importantly, how can they be managed? In this episode of The Happier Life Project, licensed therapist and BFRBs specialist Nathan Peterson joins us to explore the complexities of these compulsive behaviors. With years of experience working in mental health clinics, hospitals, schools, and his private practice in Texas, Nathan has dedicated his career to helping people navigate OCD, anxiety, tics, Tourette's, and BFRBs. He also runs a popular OCD and anxiety YouTube channel, providing education and hope to millions. BFRBs often serve as coping mechanisms for stress, anxiety, boredom, or perfectionism, but they can also occur without conscious awareness. These repetitive self-grooming behaviors impact daily life and can be physically harmful, leading to hair loss, skin infections, and scarring. The emotional consequences range from shame and self-consciousness to anxiety, depression, and body dysmorphic disorder. In this episode, we explore what makes a BFRB problematic. Is it a symptom of something deeper, such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or OCD, or rather an isolated issue? Are BFRBs hereditary—can the repetitive compulsion be passed down? We also examine the connection between skin picking and perfectionism, along with the deeper psychological and emotional factors that drive these behaviors. Plus, we take a closer look at the role of compulsions and frustration in maintaining BFRBs, how can they be treated, or perhaps even accepted, and practical strategies for managing and resisting the urge to pick, pull, bite, or chew. If you're seeking answers and support, this episode is packed with insights to help you take control of your BFRB or support someone you know who struggles with this condition.

Dermatillomania (Skin-Picking Disorder/Excoriation Disorder) – Repeatedly picking at the skin, often leading to wounds, scarring, or infections. Onychophagia (Chronic Nail Biting) – Habitual nail biting that can cause damage to the nails and surrounding skin. Lip Biting (Lip Chewing Disorder) – Biting or chewing on the lips, sometimes to the point of causing sores or bleeding. Cheek Biting (Morsicatio Buccarum) – Biting the inside of the cheeks, leading to irritation, sores, or thickened skin. Rhinotillexomania (Compulsive Nose Picking) – Frequent and intense nose picking that can result in nasal damage or infections.

Why do some people compulsively pull their hair or pick at their skin? In this episode, Dr. McGrath breaks down body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs), including trichotillomania (hair pulling) and excoriation disorder (skin picking). He dives into why these compulsions happen, the cycle that keeps them going, and — most importantly — how to break free. If you or someone you know struggles with these habits, help is available.

In dieser Episode teile ich ein paar Gedanken zu den Weihnachtsfeiertagen und zum Jahresende mit Euch - Gedanken zu all dem Stress und den Ansprüchen und Erwartungen, die so in der Luft liegen. Und es geht u.a. um die Fragen: Wie viel Platz ist an den Feiertagen für schwierige Gefühle? Muss ich immer funktionieren? Wie sieht es eigentlich mit meinen Erfolgen und Vorsätzen für das ablaufende Jahr aus? Muss ich mich deswegen schlecht fühlen? Darf ich stolz auf mich sein? Und über allem steht die Frage: Wie kann ich es mir vielleicht ein wenig leichter machen? Wie kann ich ein wenig milder mit mir und anderen umgehen?

In dieser Episode gehe ich der Frage nach, warum BFRBs (z.B. Skin Picking, Haareausreißen, Nägelkauen) nicht nur bei Stress und Anspannung, sondern auch bei Langeweile und Unterstimulation vorkommen. Dazu stelle ich Euch das Stimulus-Regulation Model von Fred Penzel vor, das u.a. Annahmen dazu beinhaltet, wie BFRBs das Nervensystem regulieren und warum ausgerechnet diese Verhaltensweisen auftreten. Zu Beginn der Folge gibt es außerdem wichtige Informationen zu den anstehenden BFRB Konferenzen in UK, den USA und 2025 in Deutschland. Referenz: Penzel, F. (2003).

In dieser Folge geht es um eine wichtige Frage, die Menschen mit BFRBs (body-focused repetitive behaviors; z.B. Skin Picking, Haareausreißen, Nägelkauen) oft beschäftigt: Was, wenn ich im Alltag keine Kraft habe, um gegen meine BFRBs anzugehen? Ich spreche in der Folge darüber, warum es wichtig ist, sich bewusst zu machen, dass unsere Kräfte begrenzt sind und was das für den Umgang mit BFRBs bedeutet. Es geht u.a. um Selbstvorwürfe, Prioritäten, Herausforderungen im Alltag und um die Frage, wie man bei all für sich selbst da sein und am Thema BFRBs dranbleiben kann, um etwas zu verändern.

Dermatillomania (skin picking disorder) can affect many of us, but it's not so often that we know of others sharing the same or very similar experience. Especially those we follow, are inspired by and look to for confidence and style. That's why this episode's conversation with Alyssa Coscarelli - commonly known as @alyssainthecity - is a special one.  I hope you enjoy this conversation.

A listener got in touch on Instagram and asked for an episode to be created for what to listen to BEFORE skin picking. What a great idea! So here it is! I hope it helps you on your dermatillomania journey and let me know your thoughts. Are you feeling tempted to give into the skin picking devil today?

This is a different kind of episode as I discuss my current circumstance: navigating breast cancer and the treatment against it.Cancer of any kind is frightening as the enemy is within you. You're forced to learn a different way of living and a new version of yourself.Along with treatment can come some nasty side effects including - in my experience amongst others - weight gain and moderate/severe facial and body acne. For someone with dermatillomania this is triggering, not to mention the mental and emotional toll which skin picking usually aids. I hope this episode brings awareness and support to those learning about, or battling against, cancer. If you'd like to follow my journey, I have a separate account at @kim.on.cancer (IG/TikTok).Thank you for your patience - more interview episodes are on their way!Support the show

Skin picking is surprisingly common, yet very few people who struggle with this condition seek help. In this episode I share my experiences with skin picking from childhood to now as well as insights for listeners to watch out for (or reflect on) when it's most likely to begin, who it's most likely to affect, why tackling skin picking isn't a matter of will and importantly, practical suggestions that help. If you, or someone you care about, needs support to tackle skin picking, start with your GP. There's lots of help available. I've included some supportive resources below too.https://iocdf.org/about-ocd/related-disorders/skin-picking-disorder/https://www.psychologytoday.com/au/conditions/dermatillomania-skin-pickingThanks for listening to this episode of “Well, hello anxiety with Dr Jodi Richardson.”How you can help: If you enjoyed this episode, or gained some useful insight from it, please share it with a friend or family member.

O skin picking, ou transtorno de escoriação, é caracterizado pelo ato de cutucar, beliscar, coçar a pele com frequência, geralmente de forma a aliviar um estresse ou um estado de tensão, seja ele negativo ou positivo. Geralmente, ele provoca feridas e passa a constranger a pessoa, que tenta esconder tanto o ato como as marcas.Conversamos sobre o tema com Elen Oliveira, psiquiatra, terapeuta comportamental e doutora nesse transtorno.  Produção: Baioque ConteúdoRoteiro e apresentação: Luiz Fujita JrCoordenação geral: Paulo BorgiaEdição: Amanda HatzyrahTrilha sonora: Paulo GarfunkelInstagram: @entrementespodcast

Angela Hartlin is an author, advocate and stars in the documentary Scars of Shame. In her book 'FOREVER MARKED: A Dermatillomania Diary' she describes her life of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and most of all her battle with dermatillomania, the compulsion to pick her skin. We discuss all of this, other BFRBs and some strategies on how to approach loved ones with a BFRB.

PLEASE excuse how late this episode is! I have a back-log of wonderful guest episodes but personal life has decided to play a main character, recently. Thank you for your patience!In this episode, I chat to the wonderful Noémie who is based in Paris, France. After a chat on social media, it was clear this conversation was essential towards growth within our community, as there is still lots to be done to help non-white skin picking sufferers with their condition. I really hope you enjoy this discussion as much as I did, and please let me know if you can suggest a Black dermatologist who we can invite onto the show. I'll continue my research into this opportunity. Any questions or feedback, please drop me a message over on Instagram!As always, thanks for being awesome. KimSupport the show

Some symptoms are hidden inside the body. And some symptoms are very visible.    There are different reasons why people pick at their skin and not everyone that does. This has an anxiety condition. There are some skin conditions like acne that causes folks to pick at it. They shouldn't, but their skin condition is caused by an organic physical problem with.   And then there are those that cannot be ignored. It is a self-inflicted visualization of a problem. This is a quick pebble in the road, just the facts and where you can find help and assistance.  Resources Mentioned:  The International OCD Foundation page on Skin-Picking aka Excoriation. This website has a lot of information about the various forms of OCD and OCD Spectrum disorders.   Pick Me Foundation has a skill management page to help folks learn skills and techniques on handing their symptoms.   Merck Manual has a patient accessible guide to the disorder that will give you a basic understanding of the disorder and how it can relate to anxiety and depression.   The TLC Foundation for Body Focus Repetitive Behaviors has a directory of therapists that have been trained on treating the disorder. They also have a resource page with help and support. You can download their booklet on BFRB on treatment guidelines.   If you need support contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, the Trevor Project at 1-866-488-7386 or text “START” to 741-741.

Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) such as skin picking and nail biting can feel like a bad habit we need to break, but these behaviors go beyond just a habit; it's actually a complex condition that causes people to repeatedly touch their body in a way that results in physical damage. For years, BFRBs were thought to be a member of the OCD family, but new research shows they're commonly co-morbid with ADHD as welll, which shouldn't surprise too many ADHDers including myself.   In this episode I'm hoping to lessen the shame many of us have surrounding these behaviors by sharing some of my own experiences and looking into the physiological reasons behind why we do them and why we often can't stop doing them with willpower alone. I'll also provide some helpful strategies for stopping or lessening BFRBs that were shared with me by our amazing Facebook group members, many of whom have struggled with BFRBs themselves. Remember, the more we can understand why we do the things we do, the more power we have to change them.
