What does it feel like to have body dysmorphic disorder? what's in their minds?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Feel flawed: In many cases of bdd, patients believe that a physical feature of their body is flawed. They are preoccupied with this perceived problem and may take drastic steps to deal with it, by either isolating because they are monsters or finding ways to 'cure' the problem. Cosmetic surgery is sought. Meanwhile most others do not find the problem disturbing or at least not to the extent felt by the person.
