? Is it just a habit, or something more? ? Many of us bite our nails, twirl our hair, or pick at our skin occasionally—but when does it cross the line into a Body-Focused Repetitive Behavior (BFRB)? ?? BFRBs, like chronic hair pulling (trichotillomania) or skin picking (excoriation disorder), go beyond typical grooming habits—they feel almost automatic and can be tough to control, even when they cause distress. Watch as Alexis Cohen, LCSW explains the key differences between regular grooming behaviors and BFRBs, helping you understand when it might be time to seek support. ?? If you're struggling with BFRBs, know that you're not alone—Light On Anxiety is here to help with evidence-based strategies to take back control. ??? Consider becoming a patient with us today! ??

When disasters strike—whether near or far—the emotional toll can be overwhelming. Even if you're not directly affected, simply witnessing the devastation of events like the California wildfires can trigger stress, anxiety, and a deep sense of helplessness. This is known as secondary trauma—when we absorb the emotional weight of others' suffering. If you're feeling on edge, struggling to sleep, or consumed by distressing news updates, you're not alone. Your empathy is a strength, but it's important to set healthy boundaries, limit exposure to overwhelming media, and engage in grounding techniques to protect your mental well-being. At Light On Anxiety, we understand how uncertainty fuels anxiety, and we're here to help you navigate these emotions with practical, science-backed coping strategies. ??

Relationship OCD (ROCD) is more than just occasional doubt—it's a cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can make you question everything about your relationship. Just like other forms of OCD, ROCD can drive you to seek certainty in ways that actually fuel anxiety rather than resolve it. ?? Common ROCD compulsions include: ?? Repeatedly reviewing your feelings ("Do I really love my partner?") ? Constantly comparing your relationship to others ("Are we as happy as they are?") ?? Googling, taking online quizzes, or seeking reassurance to find "proof" that your relationship is right or wrong These behaviors provide temporary relief—but in the long run, they only strengthen the anxiety loop. The good news? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) can help you break free from these compulsions, quiet the doubts, and learn to trust yourself and your relationship. ?? If ROCD is making it hard to enjoy your relationship, Light On Anxiety is here to help. Schedule an appointment today—link in bio! ?? Light On Anxiety ????
