How To Encourage Someone To Get Help For Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)

How can I encourage someone to get help for BDD?

Well sometimes, especially if somebody has BDD, he or she may think "this is because I'm ugly." They could be agreeable to get a treatment if it is about dealing with some of the other symptoms that they have. You can say "well listen, I know we disagree about what you think about your appearance, but we both know that you are depressed, we both know that you dropped out of school, and I think you need some help with that, so why don't you at least get that addressed?"
