Trying to deal with being able to feel comfortable when going out. Bdd makes it hard because you constantly are thinking about your image and feel inferior to everyone - comparing yourself and feeling entirely inadequate. Getting up in the morning is a big struggle - not that you don't want to- you really do but to face your image in the mirror is really frightening and for others to see you like that - esp if you live with someone of the opposite sex apart from your family.
To get dressed , to face your image and cry over and over because you look so terrible and then to see the time flies by and that you are very late to what ever you were to go to .. and just end up in a mess of desperattion on the floor feeling intense despair.. crying your eyes out until you can't no more.
To join something, o be part of society you are faced with intense negative feelings of having to be around others you feel so inferior to and having to be able to take intiative and be sociable when all you feel like and want to do is crawl up in a ball and hide yourself from the world.
