Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) and Quarantine
Quarantine-related anxiety in individuals with BDD may lead to an increase of depression, OCD, substance abuse, eating disorders, and suicidal ideation. Symptoms of BDD may also increase due to the increased time people have in their homes, which in turn allows them to access the mirror and engage with safety behaviors more. Telehealth may be a viable treatment for BDD during quarantine.
