I dont think i have bdd but i do have a huge insecurity with my hair.......any mirror, reflective surface.....puddle lol will look and judge my hair, it never looks right, i guess i should just accept it. 20 mins of trying to get it to look right in the mirror and no joy, end up losing my temper! suprised i havent broken the mirror.....Ha. Its worst at work (have to wear a stupid hat, which messes up my hair even more) at lunch or end of the day i have to pretend to go to the toilet and check in the mirror to make sure it doesnt look extra retarded lol pretty funny really.

Anyways i think its just an insucurity of mine and is probably common, although i do hate it when people notice i stare in each mirror and think its due to vanity, i will promptly explain my hair looks shit lol. Being a red head probably doesnt help either.......but i see other red heads with decent looking hair so i dunno

We should have a section for this topic.

god is very cruel.
"ah ha, I made you a hideous mess that will be shunned by all! and if you try and escape, into the eternal fire you go."

I've suffered more than jesus has. At least he knew where he was going when he died.

I know of an active forum, but it's mostly for good looking girls that pretend to have BDD so people can tell them how pretty they are.

I also wanted to mention something about pictures. For some reason, when I take pictures up close, my face looks distorted and nothing like it looks in the mirror. I can't tell if my face is really that ugly or if it's just the camera cause I look normal from 4-5 feet or more.

Yeah, we need a section for this.

My parents just tell me I'm crazy when I insist that I look different. Thanks mom and dad, that's a huge help.

I never look the same from day to day. I swear my face changes, but no one else sees it. It's horrible because I don't know what I truly look like.
It makes it worse when I see different reactions in people too, depending on how I think I look. One day I'll have a lot of people telling me how pretty I am, and then the next I feel invisible, and no one even looks at me.

I used to think that I had BDD. Then I realized was ugly and just using BDD as an excuse.
