I pretty much avoid all mirrors at home because if I look into them I risk to get another BDD attack and end up with a ruler in front of the mirror to measure my face and simulate surgical outcomes.
It's a very common and likely scenario that a single look into the mirror not only ruins my entire week but I might also stay up for the whole night then and stare at myself in the mirror, do selfies and morphs and pull my skin into different positions.
Contrary to that, when being outside, I always double check myself in the reflections of store windows to see if I don't walk/look autistically and evaluate if my recessed maxilla is visible from far away as well.
Am I the only one with these issues here? Feeling pretty badly disturbed by BDD lately tbh
