Most of us may look in the mirror and spot something about our appearance we don’t like, be it a crooked nose, acne, or maybe an uneven smile. However, the majority of people are still able to carry on with their day-to-day life without their physical flaws hindering them. But that’s not the case with people who suffer from Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), which affects up to 2.4% of the population and targets both men and women at roughly the same rate. Those with BDD are preoccupied with one or more flaw in their appearance. This flaw, however, may either be imagined or something very minor that others don’t notice. But in the mind of someone with BDD, their flaw(s) is grossly exaggerated and noticeable to everyone. Their obsession with their perceived defects causes them a significant amount of distress, most spending up to several hours everyday fretting over their appearance. Many sufferers of body dysmorphia may describe themselves as ‘’deformed’’ and genuinely feel that they don’t know what they look like. 

One of the telltale signs of BDD is ritualistic behaviors such as excessive grooming, constant mirror-checking (or avoiding them altogether), skin-picking, attempting to camouflage their perceived flaw (with makeup, hair, clothing, hats, etc.) and seeking reassurance from others. Sufferers of body dysmorphia may seek out cosmetic procedures to ‘’fix’’ their imperfection, but this usually provides only temporary subsequent relief. Many will be left unsatisfied with the results, or find another flaw in their appearance to obsess over. 

Body dysmorphic disorder can be very debilitating for those who have to deal with it, as it usually impacts their work/school/social life. This mental illness can be so extreme that sufferers may be ‘’house-bound’’, and some may be afflicted with suicidal thoughts as well. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is said to be the most effective treatment for BDD.
