This book has a lot of information and helf for anyone dealing with body image issues

A Workbook That Actually Works!

I was diagnosed a little over a year ago with BDD. It is still highly unrecognized, even in the mental health field. I was misdiagnosed for years; thus, I received improper treatment. This workbook really delves into the thought processes of a person who suffers from this exhausting illness. The worksheets and exercises really cause you to challenge the beliefs which have been engrained in your memory for decades. I would highly recommend this workbook for anyone who is looking to become stronger without the use of narcotics.

At last...

As a parent of a BDD sufferer, I was pleased to read through the workbook before presenting it to our family member. If read and followed, it should help with any one in BDD's grip.

A good start when not ready to seek help

I've already read this book twice, it's a very good support when I feel overwhelmed by my body obsessions, its best point is that it made me feel that I'm strong enough to gradually change. Everytime I doubt I read some specific passages to put be back on the track.

INFORMATIVE

Although I have just started reading the workbook and starting the exercises, it seems like it could help with BDD. I think this would be helpful to those with BDD or a similar condition.
