Do I have body dysmorphic disorder?

Do I have BDD? How can you tell if you have BDD? A best friend and my boyfriend are really worried about me having BDD. I don’t know if I have it or not. Maybe I’m just ugly. I’m confused. I have realised I have some symptoms of BDD but I don’t know if this is just an excuse for being ugly. How can I go about telling someone about this? How can I get help? How can I be helped? Much advice needed please!

Answer #1

What is BDD?

Answer #2

I had it in younger years. I thought I was too skinny and worked out at the gym like a madman but still when I looked in the mirror I saw a skinny guy. Now years later (I’m 39) I have given up the gym obsession and keep a good diet and a blokes average size and feel much better. Ask reliable honest people what they say when they look at you.
