Body Dysmorphic Disorder

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a form of mental illness. People who experience this form of illness constantly worry about their appearance and may be concerned with something that is not present, or that other people do not notice, thinking it is a serious defect. The severity of BDD a person experiences varies. While some people are aware their feelings are irrational or unjustified, others are nearly delusional in their convictions.
