I am very body-conscious, but i often strangely enough find myself very goodlooking facially . . . . yet sometimes bland, or as if lacking something exotic, i dunno.

I'm pretty sure I have BDD, I'm constantly looking in the mirror and at photos comparing my facial features to others. And even thought it sounds a bit crazy, I even measure different parts of my body, measure the proportions of my body and compare them to averages on the internet. I don't really have a problem with the way my body looks b/c it only could use a few minor improvements and must people would kill for my body, it's my face that i have a problem with. Luckly, unlike SA I deal with it real well though. I don't belive my looks will ever hold me back from anything in life so I don't really need to try to change them.

If that is your picture in your avatar, I THINK YOU ARE GORGEOUS

I think I might, but I seem to switch between the idea that I may have it or that maybe I actually am this disgustingly unattractive. It's getting a lot worse as of recently. I don't like to go anywhere and I always have my hand over my face. I miss a big portion of school just because I feel so ugly that I can't even take it. I know it's not the reason for my social phobia because I've had that before I even cared what I looked like but I think it's making it worse. I mean I sure I just look like a total idiot with my hand covering my face all the time.
