What happens when someone with BDD looks in the mirror?

It's when they look in the mirror what they see is usually something that they think is defective about their appearance. For some people it may be something where its look likes a distortion. Yes, people do have pores on their skin but what they're seeing they're seeing in a kind of magnifying way and really coming out of context with the rest of the face, or they may see things that other people can't see at all; like they see a bump on their nose, and other people see a straight nose when they look at them. So, they really see something as defective and they see in a way that its looks horribly ugly to them, I mean, it really looks hideous, and it's very disturbing.
