Body Dysmorphic Disorder (When the Mirror Lies)

Body dysmorphic disorder is a mental disorder where one is unhappy with their appearance resulting in an obsession with their flaws thereby hindering their ability to lead a normal life. The obsession is more commonly focused on the face, hair, stomach, thighs, or hips. BDD usually starts in adolescence and affects both men and women equally. Due to the distress caused by the flaws some victims of BDD experience depression, social anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. In addition, they may also experience delusions that other people are constantly talking about their flaws. The cause for BDD is thought to be an amalgamation of genetics, environmental, psychological, biological, social, and cultural factors. BDD has also been associated with visual processing abnormalities and executive dysfunction. Meaning a victim of BDD has a bias for analyzing fine details rather than looking at the big picture. The Goal of treating BDD is to minimize the false beliefs about the defects as well as minimize the compulsive behavior that follows as a result of it. As BDD shares features with Obsessive-compulsive disorder, the treatment of BDD is similar to OCD and is treated with a combination of medication and cognitive behavior therapy. At present, there isn't any FDA approved drug to treat BDD but antidepressants and antipsychotics are prescribed in order to treat the symptoms of BDD. BDD is not a quest to increase one’s appearance but a quest to normalize the appearance. SUPPORT MY WORK ►   / tinymedicine570   Thanks For Watching !. :) Don`t Forget To SUBSCRIBE!
