Body Dysmorphia 

Guys I know we all also have body dysmorphia but him being "hot" doesn't make it less valid, dysmorphia is really more about the perception than your actual physical attributes

When I ask my sister if I look disgusting of course she says no! But I get angry and tell her to tell the truth and she's familiar with this repetitive argument and she screams "what you wanna hear? You're ugly? You're fat and disgusting? Are you relieved ؟" and that's exactly what I wanna hear

I wish I was brave enough to ask for help.

I'm 32 and I have suffered with this for 20 years. It affects me every single day, feeling ugly, fat, worthless. Some days I just want to hide away. I am a man, and believe me this affects men just as much as women, and I'm glad men are having the courage to stand up and have a voice without feeling ashamed or weak.

Aww hes so gorgeous

The fact that he is hot makes me even more insecure

I suffer from BDD as well. It’s such a pity to see, he is so attractive

I can relate. Objectively I know that I'm kinda good looking. Like I gets stared at on the street and got hit on multiple times and all that, but I'd take pictures of myself with horrible lighting or angles applied to "convince" myself that I look horrible. I'd ask my friends or family members whether my flaw affects my image a lot, but I'd never be satisfied with a simple "no", even when they're complimenting about the certain area of my face. There are multiple times after taking a "horrible" picture of mine, that I'd just suddenly have suicidal impulses. No one has actually made fun of that certain part of mine, nor anyone said that it looked horrible, but I'm just never convinced. The fear of being ugly and disgusting as a guy is torturing me.I'm not officially diagnosed yet, but I think I do have bdd, and it's affecting my life massively.

Exactly what I battle with, and if you saw what I look like, you'd know that I have no reason to be confident or happy with my appearance. Even in my 30s, it hasn't left me. I cannot beat it, doesn't matter what I try

This guys an actor

I like that this addresses males with this disorder. I've been struggling with BDD for 15 years and and I know what this kid is going through. I wanted to get tested for a genetic disorder because I felt so deformed. I was convinced I had a genetic defect. I hated my parents for choosing each other as partners to procreate with . "Had they chosen someone else I would have come out normal" is what would go through my head. BDD makes you feel so lonely because you think you are the only person on earth that is this ugly or deformed.

This has got me I'm in a psych ward to get help but it's gone the other way your great bloke bless u

Thank you!

So I'm a 36 year old male and I've suffered with this ever since the age of 16 when I had just started college and a woman walked past me and thought I was female, and since then I have never felt like a normal man, I actually get scared to go out anywhere when I'm clean shaven because I worry that my face looks too feminine and I might get misgendered again, it is a huge insecurity I have which I hope to overcome one day.

I deal with dismorphic disorder since over 40 yrs

This is EXACTLY what I'm going through as soon as I see a bigger more ripped guy who likes like they are out of a fucking Final Fantasy game. It makes you want to try even harder to get that physique and be even more shredded regardless of the fact that it clearly isnt healthy at all

I know we all have been their with the photo issues, and usually we are our own worst enemy

I have bdd too and it can easily affect anyone man women any age race nationality it is a illness that I wouldn't wish for anyone. But I'm hopeful in overcoming

ok but HOW did you film and edit yourself with those thoughts and feelings cos it stops me from creating the art I wanna create :'(

I have never been successful or attractive in any way shape or form. I have been struggling with my body for quite some time since no one finds me attractive. I Have never had any kind of attention of any kind. I was never told I was sexy or cute or attractive. I was always told to lose weight and get better clothes and be more of a financial support for them. But in this lifetime I know there is nobody out here for me. I know I'm not worth anybody's time.

My mum when my anorexia was at its worse said I looked like a prisoner from Belson.

why do people act like only ugly people have this. Literally everyone can have this

couldnt relate more

How do I know I have it, can somebody please give some tips

What is the cure for this

its like every time I look in the mirror its a different person thats looking back at me.

Nobody is ugly everyone is perfect god made us perfect our life is perfect too :)

God loves u

Im like him but i hid it i always look at the mirror and telling myself im ugly my body is so ugly my nose is so ugly my eyes is so small my hair grow slow my face is ugly my face is big and more

It's horrible when you're a female. Because women are supposed to be goddesses, flawless, beautiful soft skinned and intelligent. But I'm none of that, on top of that I've had depression since childhood too, doesn't help either. I hate it. I wish I could cut my face off and glue a new one, one that looks beautiful and flawless. And when I'm out in public I cover the sides of my face with my hands or my forehead (cover as if the sun is hitting your face) and I also feel dizzy, everything and everyone moves so fast and it seems blurry. I hate it.

*I don't use Facebook* *I don't use WhatsApp* *Now I'm feeling like I should stop using my Instagram too* *And Forget Life*

omg je veux être un homme blanc idéal et j'ai un bdd très sérieux en ce moment et maintenant je ne peux pas me concentrer sur quoi que ce soit, ma vie semble que je suis proche de la fin de la journée😭😭😭

It is related to myself lol

Are we just superficial and vain people for having this?

It's exactly me . He is facing such a same situation that I am facing . Everyone says that I'm handsome. Many girls wants to be my gfs but I hate my face . I see myself every time different .In some mirrors I look good but at the same time when I look in to another mirror I feel the ugliest man ever . Every time I focus on my eyes lips nose . Some time it's look crooked . Some times bigger and some times it look fine .

Jesus loves you!!!

He looks fine. He doesn’t look like me at least
