Body image counselling can be incredibly beneficial for individuals struggling with body image issues. In therapy, individuals can explore the factors that contribute to their current attitudes about their bodies. Often, people may not realize how much negative comments from others or past experiences influence their self-perception. Counselling helps individuals rebuild a healthier self-image that isn’t tainted by mistreatment or unrealistic societal ideals. Additionally, it addresses unhealthy dieting habits or disordered eating behaviours, promotes self-acceptance, and encourages setting realistic goals related to body image. Through counselling, individuals can learn to appreciate and feel content with their body size and shape. Remember: Seeking counselling is a positive step toward improving body image and overall well-being. You don’t have to face these challenges alone!
What is a Body Image Disorder?
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a mental health condition characterized by an overwhelming preoccupation with a perceived flaw in one’s physical appearance. Individuals with BDD intensely focus on their appearance and body image, often spending hours each day checking the mirror, grooming, or seeking reassurance. Despite the flaw being minor or even nonexistent to others, they experience significant distress and may avoid social situations.
How Do You Know You Have It?
The following signs and symptoms may be the clear hint you definitely shouldn’t ignore.
Preoccupation: Individuals are extremely preoccupied with a perceived flaw that others cannot see or that appears minor.
Belief in Defect: They believe they have a defect that makes them ugly or deformed.
Seeking Reassurance: Frequently seeking reassurance from others about their appearance.
Negative Attention: They think others notice their appearance negatively or mock them.
Repetitive Behaviors: Engaging in behaviors to fix or hide the perceived flaw, such as mirror-checking, grooming, or skin picking.
Comparison: Constantly comparing their appearance with others.
