It's stupidly funny how I know what the problem is yet I can't face it that much. By the way, yes I would rather give my health to that poor person thats dying and really wants to live! Over knowing this and continue living with my pathetic thoughts. This is a serious mental stupid thought that kept me lock for 4years only way I would go out is like that woman a hat, and sitting in the back seat while I waited for parents. Pathetic I know :( but it's true! Yet with time I'm just letting go a bit
I had this problem, it was dramatic to my self, a pain to my family, and to embarrassing to tell. I ought to think that I don't look how I look like. People compliment that I'm pretty and stuff even so I saw(see)my self really ugly like I don't deserve to even go out. Now it's no matter but I still get that thought in my mind at times. I don't think it's a main mental disorder, just a mental problem from all the bad things I've heard and collected through the years that just drown me to believe.
Even the most prettiest people on earth has disorder, its something beyond their control. Its not something that would go away easily. Its not like I want to eat now because I'm anorexic or I have to feel beautiful because its what people tell me. Its a disorder which needs a lot of support and particularly, professional help.
and they think they have problems? lol what the fuck is wrong with the world? everything is revolving around how beautiful you are..wtf...grow up! people die of hunger and work for 20 bucks a months...and she spends 20,000 on beauty...i wish i lived on different planet
She's pretty..its sad, psychological disorder ruins one's self confidence and esteem. Family, friends, professional help and self courage and willingness is what one's need to battle this demon.
That's why it's important to keep kids young and oblivious to these superficial desires of trying to get buff, wear teh right makeup, etc. I wonder if the tiara kids will end up like this.
Maybe it's important for parents to spend "QUALITY" time with their kids and to be approachable early on. All parents work, have bills to pay, yet only a few are good parents. Take your kids out to the park, let them play outside and get dirty. Don't buy a tv or laptop for the home.
I had a list of plastic surgeries I wanted done since I was 14. couldnt ever afford plastic surgery. I'm hideous I know it but I'm just gonna have to deal with it until I can afford the plastic surgeries. and its funny because my sisters are completely gorgeous and always complain about how ugly they are and how they are full of imperfections. I think in my family bdd might be genetic. but yea, we cant afford to go without food so we have to force ourselves to go outside *shrugs*
@BronxBeauty8 Sounds like my family by brother has bdd and my sister and I may have it. I think I am completely hideous, that is why I'm planning on getting a nose job and a few other work done. If you ever want to talk, I'm here.
@stewielove101 I wish I could get a nose job, Id have one in a heartbeat. but permanent makeup is cheaper so I think I'm going to get that done sometime this year. If I had money I'd most likely be one of those people addicted to plastic surgery
@BronxBeauty8 Same here, I'm dying to get these procedures done. I don't care what people say about plastic surgery there's nothing wrong with getting it. It doesn't make you fake and these are the same people who say that it only matters on the inside. I will be getting a nose job sometimes this year but I hope you can get your nose job done. BTW my family is not so hot with money now either.
@stewielove101 what other procedures are you getting done? I dont think plastic surgery makes people fake. its just accentuating something you already have. And I think if it makes u feel better about yourself then no ones opinion matters anyway. I remember when I was younger I wanted my ribs removed, my legs lengthened, breast implant, brazilian butt lift, liposuction, nose job, tattooed makeup - lol I would be all plastic but if I was happy with the result, nothing else matters.
There are people who are born into a family that have less than a dollar to spend to feed themselves - THAT is a day to day struggle. BDD , is bullshit , specific to those spoilt and ungreatful.
@101bodom : This is why I give up with Society in general, drones like yourself categorizing every concept you can't wrap your pea sized brain around as being irrational and 'bullshit'. I'm penniless, I have had BDD for several years now, and I can tell you it's not irrational, it's a constant struggle, then I think to myself why do I give a fuck what you drones think? You'll crawl back inside your sheltered bubble and ignore the thought of something you can't comprehend. Good night.
@101bodom I suffer from Body Dysmorphia and Severe Schitzo-effective disorder. I've also Lived in Hotel rooms eating Nothing but Bologna Sandwiches And sharing a bed with my Druggy, drunk parents and 2 siblings for 2 years because we couldn't afford a house. We've went days sleeping all together on the couch for warmth because We had No Electricity, and we couldn't bathe because we had no water.
@101bodom (2/2) My mother Broke her hip having me and has no medical insurance to fix it, And takes care of me, My Depressed little sister (Who was just released from a Children's crisis center) My Autistic little brother, & my 22 year old brother. It's easy for someone like you to speak against pain you know nothing about. My self hatred is alot harder than any Molestation, Homeless period, or starvation that I've been through. but I'm Spoiled and Ungreatful right? Get a fucking life.
@101bodom both are a struggle. BDD is real. I don't think I have it (at least not as bad as a lot of people), but some days I can barely leave my room, because I am afraid that people will look at me and see me. But I manage. I cannot imagine how horrible it must be to never be able to leave your house. You shouldn't talk about a disorder you know nothing about.
i have this as well. at first my therapists though it was just an awkward teenage phase but as i'm entering my mid-20's and still hating everything about me, i know i have BDD. it's not a fun way to live.
I am a 19 year old male who has never been happy with the way I looked, since the age of 13 I have wanted to have a more pretty/cute/tanned face rather than my long/pale face. I was reading up on B.D.D. This is what I came across.
''Imagine you're an average-looking man or woman. But when you look in the mirror, you see a monster.''
I don't see a monster. I see an 'average' looking man. I hate looking average and plain though. I want to be beautiful and have different features!!!
in a culture that emphasizes thaat women are defined by looks first , then list all the negative description and stereotypes of women, then you have a recipe for self non exsistance. Does she know who she is? Also, what about the looking for the wrong, and not being able to see the good. What feed back in any area of life , emphasized her being or doing right.
I think media influence in the culture is so strongly linked in this, just like with eating disorders. Its always women and gay men who suffer with this! very rarely straight males. Always always chicks. I was one of them in middle and highschool. Luckily i changed for the better but we shouldnt have to go through a mental metamorphosis just to stand and be a person, alas when all you're taught is objectivity the road to humanity is the road you walk alone. but the destination is worth it.
I've had body dysmorphic disorder since I was 7, but it was mild. It really started when I was 10. Its been the biggest challenge of my life, overcoming it. I still have it, but its getting better. Once I told my mom we had little "theropy sessions together" and its easier going through it when someones there helping you.
i've had body dysmorphic disorder since i was 5 (although it was mild) but got diagnosed with it at 14. i'm nearly 19 and i still have it. it's taken over my life.
If anything, I have the opposite problem. I`m very confident - most of the time - about the way I look. I have no idea why this young lady should be so self-depricating. She is a very attractive lass.
Can anyone tell me what the title of the episode thats first in the commercials? The one where the guy is abusing his model wife and has the 3 year old daughter? I haven't seen it and I want to know!
I have got told before that I look like certain celebrities and sportsmen. Not in a nasty. abusive or insulting way, just in a general comment kind of way. When I looked up these celebrities, I wasn't pleased by what I saw. When I looked further on google search results, I found out that 2 of the sportsmen that I was told I looked like, had actually being voted into the top 20 ugliest sportsmen in europe.
How can one honestly justify me as having B.D.D. and not just being genuinely ugly?
I feel bad for these people. It is all having confidence and being ok with who you are and how you look. We all need to remember that God created everyone different and we all have our unique characteristics. I have struggled with weight and over the year I have realised that we need to fix both inside and outside. And for so long I have focused on outisde and once I lost a good amount of weight I realised that inside needed change as well.
WOW! That woman looked like Lisa Marie Presley and Jackie O' combined. Down right babe. If she's not convinced-than look at your sister sexy! The two of you look a lot alike---very GOODDDD looking! Seriously. I am a Woo (Welsh Jew) and I am not a looker and I don't care. I didn't choose it.
I have a skin condition called keratosis pilaris, it is VERY common and 40% of people have it, except I just have a bad case of it.. (look it up) on my arms. Simply tiny little bumps.. I have developed BDD because of this. Just speaking about it even online, freaks me out. 80% of the time in public I am in long sleeves, and if not, I'm having a constant anxiety attack over it. It's on my mind at least 70% of the day, every day. It's tough, and life is miserable when you're body dysmorphic.
@sushiyama1 yes , i know this skin condition, once i encountered a cafe owner to have this condition, people will stare and wonder why you look like that, and its so rude
@sushiyama1 hey, i'm in the same boat as you, i'm 21 and i've only started to wear short sleeves like a couple summers ago and when I do I'm constantly paranoid about people seeing it. but the thing is, you just have to wear the shortest sleeve you can find, take a deep breathe and yell fuck it. Don't let it control your life, I don't want to be lying in my deathbed wishing I didn't let something so irrelevant take so much control over my life, hope this helps!
I honestly have to say that I don't buy this disorder @ all. I think it's just a guise for people who are so self absorbed and narcissistic that they are more concerned with vanity than anything of real substance. People can disagree and hate on what I say all they want but this to me is RIDICULOUS. Go visit a burn unit, go visit those who have been living with real disfigurements due to REAL tragedies that have happened in their lives. Enabling this selfish, narcissistic BS disorder is wrong!
@LOLOSSKY You're clearly ignorant so what people like torturing themselves for nothing then?.Seriously you have no idea what the disorder does to you because you don't have it and understand nothing about it.You're an idiot it's like people who are depressed want to be,seriously mate get your head out of your arse as you are clearly uneducated and an imbecile.BS disorder hopefully you somehow go through it then we'll see who the tough guy really is moron!
i have never had BDD myself but i hope people who have issues like that they are pretty but i hope they get help because no matter the person they are pretty inside and out and someone in that situation would understand it.
To all you people who have BDD out there I'd like to talk to you.I've been a sufferer of BDD for many years now and would love to be there for you.I totally understand the condition thoroughly and never judge,I know how much it impacts on your life.It's a hell of an illness to live with and you're brave as hell living with it.I know the pain associated with BDD please don't dispair your courage goes a long way.
Ive had it since I was 13 and it was caused by my family always making fun of my weight and I was an overweight kid and now that I am 6'2" 180 i still feel that way and even when girls find me attractive it doesnt change what I see in the mirror
@mikeballer08 It's a terrible condition to suffer I'm 36 and have had it for so many years.I hate the mirror,hate reflections you name it.Going places where there are crowds and many young attractive people is pure hell.
Yeah I was overweight and got a lot of criticism from my family so I became even more scared about others. Now im 6'2'' 180 with like 8 percent body fat and girls are attracted to me but I cant seem to get rid of it. And my mom getting paralyzed and my dad passing away made me feel even more alone. I live alone now and dealing with this which takes so much energy
Seems like she has had major rejection at some point and believes it. Beautiful people dont think they are ugly for no reason. Something hurt their self esteem in relation to appearance. People tell me I'm pretty now, but when I was in elementary school people thought I was gross bc I was poor and they made fun of my nose bc it is shaped a little differently than whatever is ideal. Still gets to me sometimes until I realize kids were just mean to me bc I couldn't afford nice clothes.
its just so irritating how the most beautiful people have this bullshit idea that they’re ugly/. i know its out of their control, but still i have seen really disfigured people satisfied with their lookslthough many people are sincerely ill with BDD but sometimes i wonder whether they do it just for the sake of attention. but people only pick on those who let them pick on them. i mean does this woman think people have all the time in the world to think about her? people have lives.
it seems a little strange to me, that she admits to having this disorder..i wouldve thought that someone who had bdd would just think that theyre ugly, not sick..
People dont really get the point of BDD, i have it. I'm not concerned about my face at all I hate my body, I wouldn't mind showing my face on national tv eventhough i have seriously attempted to commit suicide. Its very complicated you guys, please dont judge unless you've been through it yourself
@TheSnuffy1994 Sadly you can't explain such a trivial sad condition as BDD to many people.They simply don't get the horrendous pain such a condition does cause you.People who have such negative views on the condition understand jack shit how much pain this causes the sufferer.It is real sufferers of BDD constantly attempt suicide and many succeed as well such is the pain of living with such a condition.
@rebel779: This condition that your trying to gain sympathy for is such BULLSHIT! I blame this on BAD parenting and people who are so self absorbed that they think appearances are all that matters! Looks (attractive or unattractive) fade at some point anyway. Isn't there more to someone than just the outer appearance?I mean this disorder revolves around VANITY and ppl are supposed to feel sorry these girls who think their not pretty enough? Go out and contribute something of value to society!
@LOLOSSKY You're full of shit mate this condition exists you ignorant fool.I have this condition and you have no idea the impact it causes ok.If it was so easy to get over why would people duffer so much because they like it.You're uneducated and clueless period.Vanity are you serious?you're full of shit idiot it has nothing to do with vanmity go through the condition and then tell me it's vanity you fuckin goose!
@rebel779: You can call me any name in the book and question my education (2 Master Degree's BTW) all you want but I'm still not convinced. Don't tell me this has nothing to do with narcissism when this whole disorder revolves around LOOKS! When ppl with REAL disfigurements watch this, it's like a slap in the face to them when normal looking ppl are afraid to come out of the house because they think their too ugly. If thats not being self absorbed I don't know what is!
@LOLOSSKY So what because you have 2 masters degrees means jack shit it doesn't mean you're so in tune with other things because clearly you aren't.You are clearly uneducated,cluless and ignoarnt enough said.You may think you're top shit but you clearly have proven you know jack shit about many things mate.You idiot you think a person like to go through hell because they enjoy it,seriously grow a brain or shutup because you clearly are a fuckin cluless dick!
I use to do that. I know this sounds cheesy to you, maybe; but Christ does want you. Look what happened to his body. I use to be like you; low confidence in relation to school-like scenarios because of low confidence. What is it that makes people go to far in shaping themselves? To me, its themselves, like it was with me; and I want to be like Christ. Because it's all about the heart instead of the earth suit. God Bless.
@sirbenzo9 Yeah, im sorry I dont want to offend you but i dont believe in god or anything like that. And even if I did, Christ may want me but that doesn't really help me here on earth. I want other people to want me. And im scared to death they dont...
@Necr0funn although many people are sincerely ill with BDD but sometimes i wonder whether they do it just for the sake of attention. but people only pick on those who let them pick on them. i mean does this woman think people have all the time in the world to think about her? people have lives.
@CherryGirl805 i know! thank-you for saying that. sometimes i wanna take these people and show them people who were the survivors of accidents. just type the name “Jaqciline Sabarido” and you will see what i mean.
See how she almost never looks up the whole time? It's because she doesn't want to see people looking at her face. I do the same things. It's terrifying.
I find some of these comments very ignorant. BDD isn't a vanity issue or not thinking you're pretty enough it's a disorder, hence why it has the word disorder in it. I have BDD. It's not to this level but it still plays a very damaging role in my life and has destroyed many of my relationships.
I cant belive humans have gone to the extent of doing this to their selfs because they dont feel "pretty". jesus fucking christ. We all need to grow up.
I think the only way to change this world of beauty is how you see others.....would you think negatively about a woman who has been shot in the face and now is disfigured? or a child who was set on fire because of an accident?
Smetimes...we cling to "disorders" out of selfishness...or simply fear/ having the sad thoughts or disorders is normal and hard..but to
It's a tough lesson to learn in life, but it's one of the most important ones. We really need to learn to just love and accept ourselves, no matter what we look like. In fact, we should do that, no matter what, period. And every episode of Dr. Phil, and every problem I see in the world, could all be solved with the simple ideal of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.
I think BDD stems from OCD about physical beauty, which is caused by narcissism. If Diana feels ugly, how are the rest of us supposed to feel? We must be not even fit to walk on this earth.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with that woman's face. She's actually pretty. So sad to have such a disorder. I wish that she could see what others do.
I quit school because of this disorder, I was a High school drop out for 6 months before I took my G.E.D. Exam. I am in Cosmetology School right now because I want to make people Beautiful in ways I cannot be.
No person suffering from body dysmorphia would just agree to appear on national TV like this after supposedly being too embarrassed to leave the house. This is just more attention whoring.
he just said "she didn't leave the house for two years" not "she hasn't left for 2 years...UNTIL NOW" heavily implying she's slowly improved since those two years
@INatalkaI Do you speak from experience or just making an ignorant tosh of an opinion? Even I don't understand what these people are go through and I don't make generalization about someone suffering in a category like other sufferers. Should I put you in a category for bully? or trying to be clever by commenting for attention whoring?
@Mr5a5uk You can put my comment in the section of common sense. But I suppose you thrive on this sort of show-off nonsense. Just because someone can see through this doesn't make one a bully. Nice try though.
@INatalkaI usually the people who goes on here want to receive help. Her body gesture the entire time shows her discomfort. Anyway, if this was just for attention; it sure as hell is expensive...all of that damn money she wasted to fix her "flaws".
It's always the prettiest looking people who think their terrible ugly.

Once I told my mom we had little "theropy sessions together" and its easier going through it when someones there helping you.

If anything, I have the opposite problem. I`m very confident - most of the time - about the way I look. I have no idea why this young lady should be so self-depricating. She is a very attractive lass.

I have got told before that I look like certain celebrities and sportsmen. Not in a nasty. abusive or insulting way, just in a general comment kind of way. When I looked up these celebrities, I wasn't pleased by what I saw. When I looked further on google search results, I found out that 2 of the sportsmen that I was told I looked like, had actually being voted into the top 20 ugliest sportsmen in europe.
How can one honestly justify me as having B.D.D. and not just being genuinely ugly?

I feel bad for these people. It is all having confidence and being ok with who you are and how you look. We all need to remember that God created everyone different and we all have our unique characteristics. I have struggled with weight and over the year I have realised that we need to fix both inside and outside. And for so long I have focused on outisde and once I lost a good amount of weight I realised that inside needed change as well.

I have a skin condition called keratosis pilaris, it is VERY common and 40% of people have it, except I just have a bad case of it.. (look it up) on my arms. Simply tiny little bumps.. I have developed BDD because of this. Just speaking about it even online, freaks me out. 80% of the time in public I am in long sleeves, and if not, I'm having a constant anxiety attack over it. It's on my mind at least 70% of the day, every day. It's tough, and life is miserable when you're body dysmorphic.

@sushiyama1 hey, i'm in the same boat as you, i'm 21 and i've only started to wear short sleeves like a couple summers ago and when I do I'm constantly paranoid about people seeing it. but the thing is, you just have to wear the shortest sleeve you can find, take a deep breathe and yell fuck it. Don't let it control your life, I don't want to be lying in my deathbed wishing I didn't let something so irrelevant take so much control over my life, hope this helps!

I honestly have to say that I don't buy this disorder @ all. I think it's just a guise for people who are so self absorbed and narcissistic that they are more concerned with vanity than anything of real substance. People can disagree and hate on what I say all they want but this to me is RIDICULOUS. Go visit a burn unit, go visit those who have been living with real disfigurements due to REAL tragedies that have happened in their lives. Enabling this selfish, narcissistic BS disorder is wrong!

Seems like she has had major rejection at some point and believes it. Beautiful people dont think they are ugly for no reason. Something hurt their self esteem in relation to appearance. People tell me I'm pretty now, but when I was in elementary school people thought I was gross bc I was poor and they made fun of my nose bc it is shaped a little differently than whatever is ideal. Still gets to me sometimes until I realize kids were just mean to me bc I couldn't afford nice clothes.

Looks (attractive or unattractive) fade at some point anyway.

I find some of these comments very ignorant. BDD isn't a vanity issue or not thinking you're pretty enough it's a disorder, hence why it has the word disorder in it. I have BDD. It's not to this level but it still plays a very damaging role in my life and has destroyed many of my relationships.

It's a tough lesson to learn in life, but it's one of the most important ones. We really need to learn to just love and accept ourselves, no matter what we look like. In fact, we should do that, no matter what, period. And every episode of Dr. Phil, and every problem I see in the world, could all be solved with the simple ideal of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.
