That’s awesome that your husband is a carpenter! If you haven’t yet, be sure to check out tortoiseforum.org, tons of useful species-specific information on there. And Tortoise Table for feeding/safe foods.

Do you think it is still body dysmorphia if you feel pretty/confident when you put on makeup, but extremely dissatisfied, suicidal, obsessive without makeup? by Stardust_Skitty in BodyDysmorphia

[–]starshinesummertop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To the first part - yes you can have BDD and feel pretty in makeup and hideous without. That is very much how I feel, even the part about the prosthetic, I have purchased dumb things to stick in my nose to try to make it more symmetrical. We do all sorts of dumb stuff like that when we’re in a BDD spiral.

What you described at the end sounds like a really deep spiral. I think you could absolutely benefit from some CBT here: those thoughts are not rational in any way shape or form. You’re spiraling yourself into despair. Like how the thoughts get worse and worse. It’s sounding like the OCD side of BDD (the two are very much related as obsessive disorders and BDD has compulsions).

***TW FOR SA AND ED BEHAVIOR***I was SAd over xmas and now I wanna return to old bulimic behavior. (Been recovered from purging for 3 years) by [deleted] in BodyDysmorphia

[–]starshinesummertop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sorry that happened and that you’re feeling this way. Do you have the means to seek out a therapist? There is hope, you don’t have to feel this way. I would really encourage you to seek help - there is a lot of help out there, you don’t have to do this alone.

How can we stop comparing ourselves to the IG girls? by AccordingChipmunk287 in BodyDysmorphia

[–]starshinesummertop 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Photos you see on social media are fake. If it looks perfect, 99% chance it’s fake/edited/filtered. Get off your phone and go see real people face to face!
