Lots of work to be done to tackle stigma and understand this collection of behaviours. Look out for more videos coming later this week.
This week we're delving into the fascinating world of Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours or BFRBs.

In this @thementalelf.bsky.social blog, I reflect on a qualitative study exploring young people’s views on loneliness interventions - what’s acceptable and feasible for their age group.

#PeerPressure isn’t always negative.

Nicolette Sullivan presented #teenagers with situations in which they would receive more money than their friends. In the presence of peers, teens were less likely to accept advantages and preferred to share the money equally 👯🏻💭💰 @lsebr.bsky.social
