I was wondering if anyone here has body dysmorphic disorder? I'm kinda worried that maybe I do a bit. Some people think I'm fairly attractive, and I don't see it at all, sometimes I feel good about myself, but very rarely. I did a test to see if you're over / under weight on a website, just cos I was bored really, and it said I'm like a 13 pounds underweight. I've always been slender, but lately I've been thinking I look a tiny bit too big on the tummy lol. Although I would never become anorexic or bullemic. I also worry about my hair, the way I look when I smile, my skin, everything. It's ridiculous.

I'm just kinda hoping someone else can relate to what I'm saying.

I feel really vulnerable admitting this, so, be gentle Razz

I'm not sure if I have BDD, but I definately have very low self esteem at least. *sigh* I know I should try and get some counselling or something, and try and figure out what's actually wrong with me, but I just never actually get 'round to it.

Most people are insecure about something physically but if it is on your mind a lot and a cause for low self esteem then i would worry about it. You don't sound as bad as me though i am constantly thinking about the thing that upsets me. Yea the more i tell myself i'm too busy to get round to figuring it out the more i dwell on the insecure feelings. When i do get around to it i jsut over analyse it but it doesn't get rid of my feelings. I think for me the only way to overcome it is to get some sort of face lift when i save up in the future.

BTW i've seen ur pic and u've got nothing to worry about, u've got a very very good figure and pretty face. counselling i would definitely try. Even if it hasn't solved my problems, the therapists have challenged my thoughts that my 'bad' physical aspects determine my attractiveness as a person.
