ellie with a partner with bfrbs.
Tumblr media
a/n - sorry if these are out of character i'm mostly just projecting 馃馃
i just want to say to all my bfrb babes that ellie loves and helping in any way she can.
- if she notices that you're about to pick, she'll take her hands in yours and try to distract you from the urge.
- if you're the type of person that needs to get things off your chest, she'll listen to you so very attentively until the feeling doesn't feel as intense anymore.
- and if you're not:
she'll either talk your ear off about the latest comics she's reading or anything that comes to mind. i know she's less talkative in the second game but i fully believe that she'd be as conversational as she could in situations like this.
- if you have trichotillomania (projecting! :3) she'll make sure you don't feel AS insecure about your bald spots or your scabs. girlie is a GOD at making eye contact but i feel like she would do it more often as a subtle way of letting you know that she's not disgusted by your lack of lashes/eyebrows. don't know if this is too ooc but i want this woman to caress my baldspots.
- onto skin picking! she'll definitely help you out with tasks that involve your hands if it's mainly revolving around your fingers. she'll clean your scabs for you whether you can do it yourself or not.
- i feel like she wouldn't quite understand the fact that bfrb's are a REPETITIVE DISORDER and they're quite hard to stop so i feel like she would get mad at herself if you relapsed and blame herself for a while but she'd never get mad at you.
i had more in the first draft but tumblr is A DICK! (@staff i'm under your bed.) but to my babes with bfrbs i love you and ELLIE loves you and YOU'RE NOT DISGUSTING OR HIDEOUS OR LESS OF A PERSON - ani<3

Sharing an accomplishment with yall!! So i have trichotillomania (and a number of other body focused repetitive behaviours), and I'm currently trying to Stop hair pulling. I've been dealing with it since I was like, 13, and trying to Stop is not easier, and I've never gone very long before. BUT today I am officially like, 5 days free of hair pulling!! It's definitely been Harder the past couple days, but I'm hoping it'll start getting easier next week.

honestly, i dont think BFRBs are talked about enough in the mental health world. i can understand the hesitation and the nervousness to a degree, because sometimes the aftermath of it can be not too easy to look at, but its still important to address it.
ive never said this publicly before, but i have dermatillomania, rhinotillexomania, and onychotillomania. these disorders are something i have to live with in my daily life, but them not being talked about more made it take years to find out my compulsive behaviors had actual names and werent just me being weird or gross.
yeah, i pick at my skin sometimes. i mess with my scalp, my fingers, my lips, but that doesnt make me a disgusting person, especially since i have almost no control over my compulsions. sometimes i pick my nose to the point of nosebleeds because my anxiety can and will push me that far. its extremely important to remember that i dont have much control over these behaviors. many people with BFRBs have very little control over their compulsions.
its important to remember that we exist and deserve help, even if our scars or behaviors make you think that we're disgusting.

I'm not doing well. Eating has become more difficult. I'm isolating more. Skin picking has increased.
And I know a lot of this is because we're in the midst of traumaversaries. These are all struggles that were prominent during that time.
I'm trying to do better but it feels like I'm losing.

12 days without pulling eyelashes. Literally haven't gone this long without caving to the trichotillomania in almost 20 years. The physical sensation that makes me want to pull lashes is so strong.
My little cousin recently started pulling her eyelashes and eyebrows. I desperately want to be an example for her to break this habit before it becomes compulsive.
