This week we're delving into the fascinating world of Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours or BFRBs.
Many of us are affected by these behaviours - hair pulling, skin picking, and nail biting, but there is huge stigma and shame around them buff.ly/3ZCN7Q6
Odd to be showing off my new branding at the same time as announcing that I'm off to pastures new. I can be found as @thetrichprof or @ClareMackay on other platforms. Look out for the peacock feather!

"A day that will have changed the lives of many who visited"

ALT Clare Mackay stood on stage presenting to a room full of people. The slideshow behind her says 'Welcome to the First Oxford BFRB Conference'
The lovely people at @BFRB_UK_Ireland are restarting their regular support groups. Many people who attended our conference discovered the power of connecting - these support groups are a great way to keep reducing the impact of living with BFRBs. 💙
Our online support groups and events are returning this week after our summer break! We are starting with a Community Room on Sunday at 2pm BST - register here: bfrbukireland.com/event-deta…

Can you help us get this research right?
We don't have good information about how many children are struggling with BFRBs like hair-pulling, skin-picking, nail-biting etc. This is a chance to get information from a very large no of people across England.

@BFRB_UK_Ireland, thank you so much for warmly welcoming me into your family this weekend. I am still processing all of the amazing moments and connections. You undoubtedly changed lives and the ripples of that will go on and on. #LivedExperienceLeadership at it's very finest 🙌
That's a wrap on our #OxBFRBConf. I'm so grateful to everyone who organised, ran, catered, filmed/covered, funded, sponsored, spoke and attended both our scientific day at @morethanadodo and our community day at the University of Oxford's @OxPsychiatry.
So thanks again to everyone who made it happen, and a special last thanks to @Caro_Harbison, who emailed me 15 months ago to say she'd spotted my @thetrichprof socials. She connected me with @BFRB_UK_Ireland and said 'I wish we could have a conference'. Will this do Caroline?
A few key people I couldn't tag on photos: @william_the_sir @TaffiGB @pollywaite Arne Mould, Tash Willson, Michelle Davidson. And I will be eternally grateful to @hannamsmyth for SOOO much help with everything.
