Re: body dysmorphic d/o ?
Hmmm, I was reading an article on body image this morning. I believe a lot of us have body image issues to some extent. Whether we go psychotic over it to the point where we are actually hurting ourselves is another thing.
From the article posted below:
The most hated part of the body for women was their thighs - highlighted by 87%, with the waist, disliked by 79%.
The survey also revealed 65% were unhappy with their breasts, with the same number having negative feelings about their feet and 59% unhappy with their face.
Teeth were picked out by 57% of the women surveyed, who said they were unhappy with the way they looked.
Half said they had “muffin rolls” - described as “podgy rolls sticking out over their waistband”.
The only parts of the body which were widely liked were the “slimmish ankles” owned by 54% of those surveyed.
