Simply Fiendish

They think that BDD is just an excuse to be an attention whore. Well, to some it may be, but I’m here to say that it actually does exist. Imagine being so preoccupied with your physical appearance that you spend hours and hours on end looking in a mirror and obsessing over what you perceive to be flaws. Imagine that no matter how many times your boyfriend/girlfriend, best friend, or family tell you that you are attractive but you won’t believe them. Imagine asking people for reassurance all the time because you feel so damn ugly. And no matter how many people and how many times they tell you that you are attractive you just won’t accept it. You can’t accept it. Imagine having to wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and just break down crying because you feel so fucking hideous. Nothing matters to you more than your physical appearance. Your mind won’t let you accept any positive attention from others because it keeps telling you that you are a disgusting monster. Just imagine having to live through that every day of your life! How would you feel? And whenever you tried explaining to somebody what Body Dysmorphic Disorder is they just give you a nasty look and tell you that you are “a self absorbed bitch” like I was called.

For so many young (and older) girls their hair is their self expression, and in several months I hope this girl will have hers back.

CHILDREN ARE NOT THEIR PARENTS’ POSSESSIONS!!!

When I initially told them I was told that I’m mentally ill and that I would be the reason our family was torn apart. It kills me to know my parents hate me so much and since then I’ve had several attempted suicides and self harm a lot. It’s my parents fault I hate myself and they can’t even see that.
