Jose speaks about his personal and professional experience with body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like hair pulling and skin picking. He highlights 4-5% of the population suffers from BFRBs, with nail biting affecting 20-30%. Alviar emphasized the importance of reducing shame and increasing awareness, noting that BFRBs are now recognized in the DSM-5 for the first time. Jose also shares his experience transitioning from patient to clinician and the role of peer support in recovery as well as the scarcity of trained clinicians, with only a few hundred in the U.S. He encourages those affected to seek help and join supportive communities, a driving factor in starting his own podcast about BFRBs.
In this episode, you will hear:
+ impact of BFRBs on various domains
+ confusion between BFRBs Self-Harm
+ peer support and recovery
+ challenges associated with revealing BFRBs to loved ones
+ accessibility of support and treatment
Guest Bio:
Jose Alvear is a licensed clinical social worker in NYC who treats people with all types of body-focused repetitive behaviors. Jose went from a skin picking patient to BFRB advocate to clinician in order to help raise awareness of these disorders. He currently co-hosts the BFRB Podcast.
