Ive been struggling with body image problems all my life, and I was diagnosed with bdd almost 10 years ago. Its really such a miserable existence, I feel like Ive gone insane.
On the "normal" days that I could actually function, I spend a lot of time infront of the mirror before going outside, and spend almost the whole day everyday thinking about how I look. Its been years since I last took a picture of myself or got my picture taken. No matter how hard I try ill always feel incredibly ugly and almost non-human. Its eating up my mind day after day and its only getting worse.
I tried therapy and medications but no results. Some doctors here didnt even know what bdd is, its really frustrating. And its moreso frustrating when you tell someone about it. I just dont want to be precieved anymore.
