Body-Focused Repetetive Behaviors often co-exist with neurodivergence. I began biting my nails by age 3 and by adolescence, I began picking at my skin. By age 30, I experienced multiple burnouts and with this, always a worsening of my bfrbs. These behaviors functioned as a coping mechanism for stress as well as a decompression tool. It also served as a default activity in times of boredom or restlessness. Do you experience BFRBs? If so, do you also associate it with neurodiversity or being neurodivergent? #BodyFocusedRepetitiveBehaviors #BFRB #ADHD #Autism #sensoryseeking #hyperactive
