Body dysmorphic disorder is a type of chronic mental illness in which you can't stop thinking about a flaw in your appearance — a flaw that is either minor or imagined. But to you, your appearance seems so shameful that you don't want to be seen by anyone.

Thank heavens my nieces and nephews seem to have healthy perceptions of their bodies and, so far as I can tell, do not suffer from body dysmorphic disorder.
