BDD can be about any body part, but according to research these are the most common areas of fixation. If you are struggling with obsessive thoughts about your appearance, you are not alone. Contact us on support@bddfoundation.org. #bodydysmorphicdisorder #bodydysmorphia

Think BDD is rare? Unfortunately, this is still a big misconception. BDD affects 1 in every 50 people, yet there is still so much misunderstanding. #recovery #bodydysmorphicdisorder #bodydysmorphia #BDD #mentalhealth #awareness

Self-hate is not a recovery strategy, it’s a symptom of the struggle. Healing from BDD starts with patience, compassion, and support. Be kind to yourself today. Your journey is valid, and you deserve support 💙. #BDD #bodydysmorphicdisorder #bodydysmorphia #recovery
