Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a mental health condition characterized by a preoccupation with perceived flaws or defects in one's appearance that are not noticeable to others or are only minor. Here are some common symptoms of BDD:
1. Preoccupation with one or more perceived defects or flaws in appearance that are not noticeable to others or are only minor.
2. Repetitive and time-consuming behaviors related to the perceived defects or flaws, such as excessive grooming, mirror checking, or skin picking.
3. Significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other areas of functioning due to the preoccupation with the perceived defects or flaws.
4. Avoidance or withdrawal from social situations or activities due to concerns about appearance.
5. Constantly comparing one's appearance to others or seeking validation from others about one's appearance.
6. Excessive exercise or dieting to improve appearance.
7. Seeking out cosmetic procedures or dermatological treatments to correct perceived defects or flaws.
8. Increased levels of anxiety or depression related to the preoccupation with appearance.
It's important to note that BDD can affect any part of the body, but common areas of concern include the skin, hair, nose, and body shape. If you are experiencing these symptoms and they are causing significant distress or interfering with your daily life, it may be helpful to discuss your concerns with a mental health provider, such as a therapist or psychiatrist, who can help you better understand your symptoms and develop strategies to manage them."
Bruhhh it's not a serious mental condition it's more the fact that looking like an incel will make your life hell who came up with this ridiculous cope.
