Blog Subject:  Dealing with insults whilst suffering with BDD

Today my BDD is extra bad, if someone has bdd and gets an insult or a negative comment on their looks (it does not even have to be that offensive) it hits badddddd like ten times worse than if someone else heard it. It’s like a cycle I build my own confidence up life goes ok then i hear a bad thing about me and great back to square one feeling awful about myself, my self esteem and confidence gets easilyy knocked down. I’ll overthink this harsh thing that was said and replay old harsh memories I guess to torture myself. Need a way out.

It takes a long time, to not care anymore, about body image, when you are convinced that you are ugly, or flawed. Even when you're past all that, when someone compliments you, especially says something nice about you from the past, when you felt the worst about yourself, it just feels weird, and wrong, and hard to accept that others don't view us, the way we view ourselves- it's self evident to us, what's wrong with them?? Is my thinking pattern, anyway.
