Cynthia YanofHOST
It gives me...
Cynthia YanofHOST
Body, what's the word? Dysmorphia.
Cynthia YanofHOST
Yeah, or it makes me feel bad about myself because at some point I bought something that was like a XXL years ago.
Cynthia YanofHOST
I don't know what it was, probably a workout shirt or something.
Greg ShawHOST
It usually includes repetitive behaviours such as checking, comparing, grooming, hiding or asking for reassurance.
Greg ShawHOST
BDD is not another name for insecurity.
Greg ShawHOST
It is also not a label we should place on somebody because they are having a hard time after surgery or illness.
Greg ShawHOST
The most useful question is not whether you ever dislike what you see.
Greg ShawHOST
What help can look like, different problems need different kinds of support.
Greg ShawHOST
If someone is dealing with grief after illness or disability, therapy may focus on loss, identity adjustments, trauma relationships or building a meaningful life.
Greg ShawHOST
If someone has BDD, an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, or trauma, they may need specialist treatment for that condition.
Greg ShawHOST
Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, can help a person notice rigid rules and cycles of checking avoidance and reassurance.
RAYEGUEST
Titles are usually how a song will start for me.
RAYEGUEST
So I had title Mary Jane, environment and anxiety, escapism, body dysmorphia.
RAYEGUEST
So those are my four titles.
RAYEGUEST
There was one or two more that we wrote, but that didn't make it.
7 MINS LATER
RAYEGUEST
Once you open Pandora's box, you know what they say, it's hard to close it.
RAYEGUEST
Yeah.
Justin RichmondHOST
Were you ever wary of, I mean, Mary Jane, escapism, body dysmorphia.
Justin RichmondHOST
Was there ever a part of you that felt like, maybe I don't want this on the, cause then of course, just from the bit of press that I've picked up about you over
Chris WilliamsonHOST
And, You know, it's the same thing here.
Chris WilliamsonHOST
It's like, well, we have to absolutely worry about body dysmorphia in men.
Chris WilliamsonHOST
Because the moment that men begin to think that their bodies aren't as acceptable as they could or should be, they can develop problems that, you know, they usher out into real life.
Chris WilliamsonHOST
And we've seen this in bodybuilding, in my world, in fitness.
MarkGUEST
god it was show day for me as well it was the first show it did and it was the morning of the show because you know that day you always look different obviously the night before but that very day because the tan's on everything's on you wake up the next day you've got the base coat on and that's the moment you go fucking hell is that me that was it I remembered it clearly it's
Jack RichardsonHOST
an interesting one Is it body dysmorphia or is it having a standard? Now, to give more context to this question, when I first competed, I looked at my physique.
Jack RichardsonHOST
I did well when I first competed, you know.
Jack RichardsonHOST
I won some shows, and I still look to myself, I'm like, I'm not impressed.
Jack RichardsonHOST
You know, and I was like, maybe I've just got some sort of fucking body dysmorphia.
Jack RichardsonHOST
I don't know, right? Because if me going and doing a bodybuilding show and doing well in one doesn't make me feel impressed about my physique, then what? But then again...
Jack RichardsonHOST
after a season comes and I've improved my physique, I'm like, that's a little bit better.
Jack RichardsonHOST
And then I realised, I'm like, I just had a fucking standard in my head.
Carolyn CostinHOST
I'm just going to sort of list for the listeners the main topics we're going to cover, but we'll go where we go.
Carolyn CostinHOST
Males and eating disorders in general, both myths and realities, body image and body dysmorphia, and the similarities and differences for genders and sexual orientations.
Carolyn CostinHOST
And of course what it takes to become recovered body and soul.
Carolyn CostinHOST
And then we're going to end up talking about your advocacy work and your social media presence.
24 MINS LATER
William HornbyGUEST
Everything is so underreported regarding eating disorders.
William HornbyGUEST
So when you hear those numbers, just know that the reality is they're much larger.
Carolyn CostinHOST
I want to talk about body dysfunction and body dysmorphia.
Carolyn CostinHOST
Bullying is a known risk factor.
Gina CaracciHOST
And when I think about the fact that I could help somebody else, that always solidifies the decision for me.
Gina CaracciHOST
So today we're going to talk about body dysmorphia.
Gina CaracciHOST
We're going to talk about my chronic illness and what it's actually doing to my body no matter how hard I work in the gym.
Gina CaracciHOST
We're also going to talk about disordered eating and what that actually looks like and not in the sense of the dramatic version I feel like most people assume.
Gina CaracciHOST
And the truth is a lot was happening in my body that was really out of my control.
Gina CaracciHOST
So if you've been working your ass off and your body's not responding the way you expected, or if you're like me, the way you're used to, then this episode is specifically for you, so stay with me.
Gina CaracciHOST
Let's talk about body dysmorphia and why we need to define it properly.
Gina CaracciHOST
I want to start here because I think this is the most misunderstood part of all of this, because there's a very specific thing that happens when somebody who looks fit or is athletic or even just put together... says something negative about their body.
Sam JejurikarHOST
evolution of body image and facial images is really kind of interesting.
Sam JejurikarHOST
For years, plastic surgeons have talked about body dysmorphia, and that was thought to be a very small subset of the population that we would see, which was thought to be psychologically driven, where patients would just never be happy with the appearance of their body or their noses in the case of men.
Sam JejurikarHOST
Marcus Stanchion talked a lot about that.
Sam JejurikarHOST
But wouldn't be happy, and that was a psychological, psychiatric trait that we were supposed to watch out for.
Brandy WyantGUEST
But I think
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
you're kind of marrying what you said is we're marrying exposure and response prevention with some CBT skills, some restructuring, seeing it like we do this with BDD too.
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
When you're looking at the mirror and all you think is, I hate what I look and my face is ugly.
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
We're learning to look at the mirror and be able to see the whole picture and see them for the wholeness of that they're more than just their looks or their nose or so forth.
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
So I think that is very similar to those ERP and CBT models we've used in BDD and in some OCD cases as well.
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
So that's actually really, it's number one reassuring for me, like, yes, we're on the right track, but it is so important.
Kimberley QuinlanHOST
I think it's good for us to also know this is where nuance has to be a part of practicing ERP and every case is going to be different.
John DelonyHOST
Tell me, tell me what you mean by he doesn't seem happy anymore.
speaker_0AUDIENCE
Um, he, one of the main, um, contributors I think is body dysmorphia.
speaker_0AUDIENCE
He, he has this image in his mind of the younger him where he grew up, he was pretty morbidly obese and he was able to, you know, fight that demon and, and he's in wonderful, wonderful shape.
speaker_0AUDIENCE
Um, but for whatever reason, he still finds himself looking at himself in the mirror, thinking that he's too large or he's just simply uncomfortable in his skin.
speaker_0AUDIENCE
Seven and nine.
John DelonyHOST
Okay.
John DelonyHOST
As a guy who has also struggled with body dysmorphia, I was never morbidly obese, but in fact, I was the opposite.
John DelonyHOST
I was just so skinny.
