This episode is a deep dive into body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). I discuss what it is, when it develops and possible causes. I talk about common body preoccupations and behaviours associated with BDD. I explore plastic surgery and how this can become addictive. I also talk about possible treatment and the relationship between BDD and eating disorders.   This week's sponsors: - Conquering Bulimia https://www.conqueringbulimia.com/   Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dr-marianne-land-an-eating-disorder-recovery-podcast/id1699867862?i=1000651158162 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Km8nFEjQOoV7zXzifJcAQ?si=2828ae031c0449d0   When I "visited" Dr. Marianne-Land! :) Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dr-marianne-land-an-eating-disorder-recovery-podcast/id1699867862?i=1000641810714 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4PAFcm6A7olJuODdJQKD6x?si=b8586794d4534af8   Harriet Frew's current offers: - Online 10 Steps to Intuitive Eating Course https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/online-courses.html Online Breaking Free from Bulimia – 20% off with code FREEDOM at checkout https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/online-courses.html  Eating Disorders Training for Professionals https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/eating-disorders-training-with-harriet-frew.html Body Image Training for Professionals https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/body-image-training-with-harriet-frew.html
