Overview

Ever looked in a mirror and absolutely hated what you see? Well, you're not the only one. Find yourself checking, adjusting, fidgeting, constantly aware and trying to correct the very thing you feel is wrong about you physically? You're not the only one. Find it almost impossible to relax in social situations, because you are sure that other people are noticing your 'flaw' too, and thinking about how disgusting or ugly you are? You are not alone. Body dysmorphic disorder is a serious mental health disorder estimated to affect around 1 in 50 people (approx. 2%) and is likely a lot higher due to the stigma and shame attached to this condition, causing it to be under-reported. It is also under-diagnosed. It causes sufferers to become fixated with perceived physical 'flaws' in their appearance, affecting confidence and daily function, and often causing depression and anxiety. It has a high risk of suicide, meaning we need to understand it better and support each other. This book, I Am More Than My Reflection, explains a bit about this disorder, providing practical advice and support for both the people coping and the people who care about them. It looks at my own personal experiences of BDD, as well as other peoples' experiences. Reading about these shared experiences will enlighten non-sufferers, and help those coping to feel less alone. BDD doesn't need to define you. We are not alone. By Eva Jean - the author of 2021's paperback & Kindle release, Breaking Free: Recognising & Surviving Controlling Behaviours.
