Hi everybody

Hi everybody

Hope it is OK I write in English - my Swedish is not that fluent yet.
I have been member on your a site for a while, but have not written anything yet.
I just wanted to say hello. I am 25, female, and I have suffered from BDD for the last 7 years. Before that I had a severe eating disorder. Tried antidepressive pills, which helped in regard to the eating disorder, but not in regard to my BDD. It is manly concentrated on my skin, which I hate soooo much...... there are no words for it.
I am very depressed at the moment and very self-destructive. Sometimes I feel so tired of myself, I just want to end it. I want so badly to be normal, to be able to go outside without feeling anxiety, to be able to like what I see in the mirror - but it is impossible.

Hi Hoppe and welcome!

I“m sorry to hear you“re not feeling that great....
 
Do you have a therapist? If not I urge you to seek professional help... aspecially since you are in a self-destructive mode.

I was moved to tears by your input.
Maybe (&probably) because I recognize myself in it.
I do really feel for you and must tell you that even though a quick way out seems so easy and tempting you really mustn't think that way.
What if you're just in a terrible nightmare or one strange day dream? Perhaps you'll wake up one day and see the real you in the mirror?

pleeease don't do anything that you would regret. you would be missed
