Re: BBD disease

As you asking I am telling Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a mental illness characterized by a preoccupation with minor or imaginary physical flaws, usually of the skin, hair, and nose.

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) sufferers may perform some type of compulsive or repetitive behavior to try to hide or improve their flaws although these behaviors usually give only temporary relief. Examples are listed below:

Camouflaging (with body position, clothing, makeup, hair, hats, etc.)

Comparing body part to others' appearance

Seeking surgery

Checking in a mirror

Avoiding mirrors

Skin picking

Excessive grooming

Excessive exercise

Changing clothes excessively

Treatment
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) delusional variant does not respond to treatment with antipsychotic drugs, but instead with some antidepressant drugs, the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).

Believed to be more effective,

the primary intervention for BDD is cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).

CBT for BDD mainly involves exposure (entering a distressful situation) and response prevention (avoiding the dysfunctional reaction).
