How Do I Cure the symptoms Of BDD?

Question

I'm pretty positive I have a Major case of BDD.

I have almost every symptom on the list

Lately I have been thinking of starving myself. I also thought of becoming Bulimic, But i have a Fear of throwing up.

I always constantly Look in the Mirror to fix my makeup

and If i have a even a little flaw on my face (ex a pimple) I constantly pick a it.

I have just notice now, My constant talking of plastic surgery.

this has started to destroy my life, I can't look in the mirror, without calling myself fat, or ugly.

Out of no were i start crying, and get tempted to cover my mirrors with bags, so I don't have to look at myself.

My sisters laugh at me, saying every girl has it, but when I ask my friends how they view their self it differs dramatically from mine.

I am 17, and I am diagnosed with Major Depression, and Borderline personality. I Am on the medication Celaxa (Can't spell)

Lately it doesn't seem to be working...

But Personally i refused to switch my pills

(I have been on 2 other meditation.)

I have seen the destruction of my very own mother due to pills....She barely remembers what she tells me, and repeats the same thing again, within 5 minutes

Sorry for the long info, My question is

What do I do to cure this? it truthfully destroying me, I even deleted my pictures From websites such as Nexopia,and face book

Help Me :(

Answer 1

You have been diagnosed and need to follow the advice of your physician.  Treatment for Body Dysmorphic Disoder is the SAME treatment as you have been given.  You need to be in intensive therapy as well.

Answer 2

obsessive thoughts about what you believe to be your physical flaws and feeling bad about yourself are signs of BDD. Please see a doctor.  There are medicines and therapies that can help you. Can you recognize that you do not really look the way you think you do?  Can you also recognize that your value and worth have nothing to do with your physical appearance? Please see a doctor soon. You do not deserve to feel this unhappy. Life will get better. Just get some help so you don't have to suffer.
