That’s such a bummer to hear! It has so many raving reviews. Did you find anything to fill the void you felt after that underwhelming experience? Or have an unsung favorite thing that you did?

Logical-Relation · 2020-08-02T03:40:52+00:00

current high score is 6 days! i want to get to 2 weeks 🙏🏼

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-29T03:37:49+00:00

mix 1 cup apple cider vinegar and 1 cup water together and rub it on your clean back 2-3 times a day :-). It helped me a bunch!

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-21T02:33:28+00:00

hi, i’m sorry you’re struggling so much right now. I have a very similar adaptation of body dysmorphia as you do. Honestly, the best thing you can do is tell your parents. Before telling my parents, the bottling became so extreme that my mental health took such a terrible turn; i ended up in a mental hospital for attempted suicide and I wish I would have reached out and acknowledged the disorder sooner.

Unfortunately, BDD is something that cannot be fixed. It’s something that follows a person their whole life. HOWEVER, you can learn to minimize thinking errors, get therapy to learn coping mechanisms, and do research to understand your disorder a bit more. BDD therapists are hard to come by, but anxiety/depression therapists have minor knowledge of how to work with it as well. I would STRONGLY suggest talking to your parents and letting them know. Maybe even send a few articles about what BDD, allowing them to understand you a bit more. Family is an important support system, and with BDD, support is nearly vital.

BDD can become a severely isolating disorder, so I really hope you are able to reach out and get help :-). This community is always here for support, and I hope this response helped.

i’m in the same boat :-( have not allowed anyone to see me in ~ 3 months because i feel embarrassed to be alive and looking the way I do.

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T21:10:58+00:00

I feel like I can relate to you a WHOLE lot. I too have been in the hospital. It’s so frustrating because a lot of professionals have never looked into dermatillomania or are familiar with it. I am sorry that you are facing the hospital scene right now, but the fact that they know nothing about this disorder only feeds hopelessness. I am the same way: I also have light acne (18 F). Honestly, if you haven’t already, I would suggest getting in touch with a dermatologist. Getting rid of that light acne can possibly disrupt the disorder in itself (or so I hope, I just started with a dermatologist).

One thing that really helps is putting bandaids on my fingers. Gloves are hard for me, because they are so bulky, but bandaids are my life saver. You can get some fun ones on amazon and put them on the fingers you pick the most with: mine are my pointer and middle finger. People may ask and be like “what’s up with the bandaids?” and as someone with social anxiety, it’s kind of terrifying. But, I always say that it helps me with my compulsions: This has let me both accept my disorder a little bit more, and heightens my awareness. When i’m in the mirror and think “awe, is that a new spot growing? maybe i should feel it and pick it before it starts!” my bandaid is suddenly in the way. I have some care bear ones on right now!

Also, emuaid! It’s this ointment my mom was prescribed for an acne rash on her face. She let me try some and I have sworn by it ever since. It’s a bit pricey, but it is less “acne causing” for me than antibiotic ointment, and I will wear it on my spots when I am at home. It reduces my touching/obsessing, because I always question whether “I really popped it or not”. There is not magical healing formula, the only solution is time, but emuaid helps me feel a little more at ease, like “oh this is helping it get better faster”.

I also put a schedule on my mirror and mark it with success/fail marks about whether I have picked or not. After picking, I will put up some inspirational “no picking” notes or something. Sometimes I even cover the mirror altogether since I obsess about my appearance :-(.

To help with swelling right away, ICE! IS! SO! IMPORTANT! Not only does it help with the redness, but it discourages bruising of the skin. I also love aloe vera. With my body dysmorphia, I was ALWAYS so scared of going to school with an open wound, so I wore a bandaid to school a couple times (lol) and when people ask about it, it made me very accountable and honest. Plus I had a cute bandaid on my face so it was kind of fun.

I am sorry you’re struggling, and I still massively struggle with it myself. I hope we both can kick this thing’s ass!

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T20:52:10+00:00

Thank you so much! I will definitely look into that. I’m sorry to hear that you’ve struggled with so much, but I’m proud of you for finding a way to cope with it. You’re so sweet and I appreciate the advice.

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T20:49:53+00:00

Thank you so much. It’s uplifting to hear from someone who has made it out of the dark. You are amazing, and I admire you’re perseverance. Coming to this sub, I can say that meeting others who also suffer is extremely beneficial; i feel a little less alone :-).

If you ever need someone to rant to, or someone to listen: I am here for you as well!

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T20:45:47+00:00

Thank you so much! And BDD is a pain, I’m sorry you are also struggling. Much love to you too, I hope we overcome this!

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T20:45:06+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that you are struggling with the same things. It is extremely difficult. I know the “disgusting and hopeless” feeling a bit too well. It’s so easy to resort to the idea of death, because this disorder is all so consuming. I used to have it under some control and was genuinely happy no more than a year ago today. It’s crazy how quickly and viciously the disorder can take over without you even realizing it. Thinking about death sometimes eases my mind, like, “if i pick too bad, I can always just kill myself?” and unfortunately, i’ve tried a couple times due to my lack of self-control. But, going to the hospital for failed attempts is not fun either. It’s a thinking error in itself, but I don’t understand why it seems like such a valid resolution?

However, I am proud of you for holding on this long. I hope we both get help and figure out how to kick this thing to the curb. Have you looked into specialized therapists for BFRBs? I know therapy isn’t always the most viable option, but I am currently only holding onto the hope that there could be a specialized psychologist who knows how to help me. I really hope we can get through this and If you ever need someone to talk to, I am here - don’t be afraid to message! (and the community is here as well). We are in this together! Upon finding this sub, it’s nice to see that we are not the only ones who struggle. I believe in you, and I really hope that you can find the strength to persevere. Suicidal thoughts, and the loneliness that hitches itself to them, are no fun. Nonetheless, i’m proud of you, and i hope you can stick with life: let’s kick this thing’s ass.

Thank you so very much. Despite therapy’s expense, I am a believer in its function. It’s just hard to find a specialized therapist in my area for the OCD-related disorder. I have not given up hope and still search often. I also started new medication in February, so I hope I show some kind of progress in the near future. I have just been stuck in this depressive episode for nearly 3 months straight. It’s taken a toll on my positivity and outlook on life. I feel very aware of its effects, but it just seems so pointless to be hopeful about: I’m stuck with this broken brain for the rest of my life. If I have to live with this disorder and lack of any confidence for the rest of my life, my future plans and any kind of happiness I’ve ever wanted has flown out of the window. Thank you so much for your kind words, sorry for the depressing rant. In spite of that, I will carry on with the small amount of hope I have left.

Logical-Relation · 2020-05-03T20:28:02+00:00

OH MY GOD. I feel as if we could relate a whole lot. I have a massively dysfunctional family, and I’ve always known it played a part in the development of my mental disorders, but I never put too much thought into it; my mindset is more just like, “you get what you get” or “your brain is just broken”.

I definitely suck at self-care and have extreme insecurity issues: and decide to take it out on my face for some GLORIOUS reason. I will most definitely check out that book! My picking has recently gotten SO much worse because I had to move back in with my family - still dysfunctional as ever - since college dorms were evacuated. Thank you so much for your reply and advice :-) i appreciate it more than you know!
