In this solo episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, we’re exploring Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)—a mental health condition that often hides in plain sight. BDD isn’t just about disliking how you look; it’s a deeply distressing experience where perceived flaws in appearance become all-consuming. For many, it leads to rituals like mirror checking, avoiding social situations, or even seeking cosmetic procedures—none of which ease the internal pain for long.
We’ll unpack how BDD shows up, how it differs from eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, and why it’s so often misdiagnosed—especially in fat folks, neurodivergent people, and those with trauma histories. This episode offers clarity, compassion, and concrete ways to begin untangling appearance-based distress.
