Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is a devastating mental health disorder said to affect up to 1 in 50 people in the UK and joining me in this podcast to share her story and experiences with BDD is Minnie Iris. Minnie is a remarkable lady who not only knows the effects BDD can have first-hand but facilitates BDD support groups to help other sufferers.
If you are affected by any of the topics discussed and or feel you need to discuss BDD please seek help from your GP if you are in the UK. If you are having suicidal thoughts, please seek urgent help either from you GP or local emergency department. Links to the Samaritan and SANE websites can be found below.
