I don't know if anyone will see this, but I really need to talk. I've had anxiety forever, but about a year ago I developed BDD. When I look in the mirror my stomach is huge and the rest of me is grossly skinny. My mom says that I need to gain weight being that I weigh 114 at 5 7". Do you think that's underweight for my…
Hey everyone! Let's have a thread here where we can discuss any positive things we do to help fight our BDD, no matter how small, to help encourage ourselves and to learn new coping ideas. There are days where it's hard to feel like I accomplished a lot, but if I look closer, there's always something. For me, already today…
Hi Everyone! I was diagnosed with moderate BDD last winter and am currently in therapy. I'm happy to see a group for this disorder here! BDD definitely comes with it's own challenges regarding weight loss and fitness that other people might have a hard time understanding, so I'm glad to have a place to discuss it and…

Hey guys! I'm new to MFP and to this group. I was so excited to find out there's a group like this where people with similar issues can support each other. Feel free to friend me!
My therapist thinks I have bed and it may get worse after my lap band surgery. I am terrified.
I actually went searching for a group for BDD. It seems that everyone kicks a fuss over any eating disorder, but no one can understand how I feel. It was nice to find 14 other people in this group. I'd love to talk about how you guys cope. Please feel free to add/PM me.

If i…
