How can one over come BDD?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:It would be best to seek out a professional for help: “Because of these many similarities, the same Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques that are so effective in treating OCD are also employed in BDD treatment. In fact, four recent studies have found significant reductions in symptoms using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for the treatment of BDD. The primary technique used in both OCD and BDD treatment is a type of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy called “Exposure and Response Prevention” (ERP). Another CBT technique that is extremely valuable is called “Cognitive Restructuring”.” Source
