Body dysmorphia, though less talked about, is not really an uncommon mental disorder. \u201cIn India, there are about one million cases per year,\u201d Dr Mayurnath Reddy, consultant psychiatrist, Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad, tells indianexpress.com<\/a><\/em>. He adds that it is something that can impact a person\u2019s day-to-day life \u2014 from their social behaviour to productivity \u2014 and their overall well-being, which makes it crucial to address the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts say that the occurrence of this disorder has increased manifold in recent years. \u201cA person who has body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) perceives defect in their body which otherwise is not there. You may think that your eyes or nose may have something really wrong about them, but if you would have asked someone else then they  would have not been agreed,\u201d says Dr Samir Parikh, director, Mental Health and Behavioural Sciences, Fortis Healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People with body dysmorphia are prone to repetitive behaviours. Apart from obsessing for hours over how they look, they also tend to touch, rub or pick at the perceived flaw or even compare themselves with others, needing constant motivation and reassurances. This preoccupation is what gives them anxiety, distress, sleep problems and may also drastically impact social life, Dr Parikh states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, actor Ileana D\u2019Cruz talked about suffering from body dysmorphia<\/a>.<\/strong> \u201cNo matter what size you are, no matter what number you are on the scale, you will always find fault with yourself. And the problem is you end up asking people to validate your fears,\u201d she said in an interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As men and women trapped in the pursuit of socially approved beauty standards, this obsession with how one looks is something that most of us have experienced at some point in our lives. Not to mention the unwarranted scrutiny and bullying one is subjected to on social media<\/a>.<\/strong> This clouds self-judgement, often leading to low self-esteem and body image issues, which are also symptoms of BDD.Also Read |\u2018I\u2019m so comfortable in my bare skin\u2019: Sameera Reddy on body positivity<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact of social media<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Dr Reddy, while social media does not directly cause BDD, it can act as a \u201ctrigger in those already genetically predisposed to the disorder\u201d. It can also worsen existing symptoms. Dr Nilesh Satbhai, senior consultant, Plastic, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery at Global Hospitals, Mumbai, says, \u201cPeople\u2019s happiness and satisfaction has been hugely dependent on the \u2018likes\u2019, \u2018comments\u2019 and \u2018views\u2019 of others. Everybody is trying to follow the recent trends and make himself \/herself better. This virtual world is naturally going to have a social and psychological impact on the individual. How you accept and deal with it ultimately determines the price you are paying for being \u2018social\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the desire to look \u201cgood\u201d is natural, the problem arises when one begins to evaluate self-worth through physical appearance. \u201cWhen certain benefits, incentives, and decisions are skewed based on external appearances, they will surely disturb the social order. The obsession for better physical appearance is surely impacting the mental milieu of today\u2019s generation,\u201d Dr Satbhai expresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effects of BDD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Dr Parikh, around 0.7-2.4 per cent of the general population have body dysmorphia. While people of any age can have BDD, it is commonly seen in the younger generation. It can also impact school children. \u201cBDD can significantly affect academic performance. Time-consuming thoughts about appearance make it difficult to focus on schoolwork, and it can lead to students failing tests and having trouble concentrating. It may even prevent students from attending school, additionally, transitions like those from middle school to high school, can be particularly nerve-wracking for those with BDD,\u201d says Dr Reddy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, in adults, it can impact social interactions. \u201cMost patients also have impaired academic, occupational, or role functioning. BDD obsessions, behaviours, or self-consciousness about being seen often diminish concentration and productivity. Patients not uncommonly drop out of school or stop working,\u201d Dr Reddy adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BDD patients commonly show symptoms of comorbid major depression as well. \u201cSubstance use disorders, social phobia, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)<\/a><\/strong>, and personality disorders (most often, avoidant) also commonly co-occur with BDD. Although the level of functioning varies, BDD nearly always causes impaired functioning \u2013 often to a marked degree \u2013 as well as other complications. Social impairment is nearly universal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the treatment is limited, patients usually undergo serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Many are also prone to visiting several doctors, especially for cosmetic surgeries, Dr Parikh mentions. In some cases, it helps the individual feel more confident and happy. Dr Satbhai says, \u201cIt can improve academic and work performance. It can help in strengthening his\/her personal and physical relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, one should opt for it only after proper research and guidance. The doctor says, \u201cIt is extremely important that these patients choose and consult a board-certified and qualified plastic surgeon for appropriate advice. Cosmetic surgery, when performed after proper assessment and planning, is extremely safe and gratifying. Checking the credentials of your cosmetic surgeon is the most basic thing to do, before you opt to get treated.\u201d Dr Parikh further recommends having psychological support because that \u201cwill help them in recovery wherever it has been indicated\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, it is important to promote body positivity, as is being done by many influencers today. Media literacy and encouraging people to express their true themselves are some of the ways to boost a positive body image, Dr Parikh adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
