What might i do to handle being in a relationship with someone who has bdd?

Good Question: Bdd often effects relationships in several ways and can be very difficult for some subtypes. Always remember the person is not the disorder. Try not to over accommodate. Be a coach or helper. Stay compassionate but don't enable.

Relationships: I think it is always important to remember that a person is much more than a diagnosis, and many people diagnosed with this personality disorder might better be seen as survivors of complex trauma. What are the actual symptoms the person has that are problematic? If your partner is in therapy the therapist needs to be experienced and should ask to meet you also if the rel. is significant.
