Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)


Question Posted Wednesday July 23 2008, 2:30 am

Hi everyone.
I just need some help because I think my friend might have this Disorder, and I don't know how to help her.
She suffers nearly all of the symptoms. Today she told me she thinks she might have it, and when I suggested she goes to the doctors she said no.
I need help on how I can help to influence her to seek help.

PS. Here is a link about it, or you could just google the disorder:

A lot of girls are obsessed about their bodies. Mine isn't perfect and I'm constantly complaining about a certain area. I'm sure she is fine and maybe she is a perfectionist like me and wants to look perfect. She may also have a little bit of OCD.

You need to get her to somehow see what this is doing to your friendship.Tell her you are very concerned,but dont push it.
I've learned that you cant make someone want to do something because then it just makes them more reluctant. But idk like the best you can do is tell her how you feel about the situation and then just leave it at that.And then hopefully, she will see that she might possibly need help.

Anyway, write back
