Skin Picking Disorder Affiliate Program Application

Help Spread BFRB Awareness and Support Recovery

Skin picking disorder (dermatillomania) affects millions of people worldwide, yet it remains widely misunderstood and stigmatized. Our affiliate program is designed for advocates, therapists, content creators, and community leaders who are passionate about raising awareness for Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) and supporting those on their recovery journey.

Why Join Our Affiliate Program?

By becoming an affiliate partner, you'll help break the silence around skin picking disorder and connect people with evidence-based, shame-free resources. Whether you're a mental health professional, a peer support advocate, someone in recovery yourself, or a content creator focused on anxiety and ADHD topics, this program empowers you to make a meaningful difference while earning commission on referrals.

Our approach centers on harm reduction, compassionate intervention, and understanding the anxiety/ADHD connection that often underlies BFRBs. We believe in meeting people where they are, without judgment or shame, and providing practical tools that actually work.

What Makes Our Program Different

Unlike generic affiliate programs, ours is built specifically for the BFRB community and aligned advocates. We understand that promoting mental health resources requires sensitivity, accuracy, and genuine care. You'll receive access to:

• Educational materials about dermatillomania, trichotillomania, and related BFRBs
• Harm reduction toolkits that focus on progress over perfection
• Content templates for blog posts, social media, and newsletters that are clinically accurate and compassionate
• Commission structure that rewards ongoing advocacy, not just one-time sales
• Community support from other affiliates who understand the nuances of BFRB awareness

Who Should Apply

Our ideal affiliate partners include:

• Mental health professionals (therapists, counselors, coaches) who work with BFRB clients
• Peer advocates with lived experience of skin picking disorder or related conditions
• Content creators who focus on mental health, anxiety, ADHD, or body-focused behaviors
• Bloggers and podcasters in the wellness, neurodiversity, or mental health space
• Support group facilitators for BFRB, anxiety, or ADHD communities
• Educators who can bring awareness to schools, universities, or professional settings

You don't need to be an expert to apply—just a genuine commitment to reducing stigma and helping people find shame-free support.

The Connection Between BFRBs, Anxiety, and ADHD

Research shows that skin picking disorder often coexists with anxiety disorders and ADHD. Our program emphasizes this connection, helping affiliates understand and communicate how:

• Anxiety can trigger or intensify picking behaviors as a form of nervous system regulation
• ADHD traits like impulsivity and sensory seeking can contribute to automatic picking
• Trauma and stress create conditions where BFRBs develop as coping mechanisms
• Shame and isolation perpetuate the cycle, making recovery harder without support

By understanding these connections, you'll be equipped to share resources that address the whole person, not just the behavior.
