Overcoming Body Dysmorphic Disorder - My Story of Living With BDD
Strong, Confident, unbreakable
Weak, broken, fragile
somewhere in between
this is the reality of living with BDD
life exists as a series of adjectives.
today I feel strong, confident, unique
tomorrow who knows
so I live for today, I give up the notion that I have to be perfect to be of value
I accept my flaws as “life marks”
today is a new day
live it
