Abstract

This thesis by Sabina Brohede addresses Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), a psychological condition where individuals perceive defects in their appearance that are not noticeable to others. The research focuses on the prevalence of BDD among Swedish women and female dermatology patients. It highlights the challenges faced by BDD sufferers in accessing appropriate health care, due to lack of awareness among health professionals. The study involved translating and validating a screening questionnaire for BDD and explored the lived experiences of patients through qualitative interviews. The findings suggest a significant prevalence of BDD, particularly among dermatology patients, and underscore the importance of increasing awareness and recognition of BDD in healthcare settings to ensure adequate care.

Abstract

Lea Walker first caught the public eye when she appeared on Channel 4's Big Brother programme in 2006. Her outgoing personality, surgery enhanced figure and outspoken manner kept audiences glued to their screens but behind the smiles she was hiding a long history of eating disorders, abusive relationships and unhappiness. As well as trying to come to terms with a history of violence, a failed marriage and life as a single parent, Lea has faced a continuous battle with her distorted body image.

Abstract

La dysmorphophobie ou BDD (Body Dysmorphic Disorder) est un trouble psychologique caractérisé par une préoccupation ou une obsession excessive concernant un défaut dans l'apparence, fût-ce une imperfection légère réelle (taches de rousseur, grand nez, rides,acné, cicatrices..), voire délirante. Cette pathologie de l'image du corps est relativement fréquente puisqu'elle touche environ 1 % de la population et peut avoir de graves répercussions autant sur le psychisme (dépression) que sur les conduites (ex. addictions à la chirurgie esthétique) Cet ouvrage va permettre aux professionnels du soin psychique de mieux reconnaitre et traiter ce problème.

Abstract

Using stories and interviews to show the many different behaviors and symptoms of BDD, and providing a quick self-assessment questionnaire, Dr. Phillips helps readers distinguish between normal concern with appearance and the obsession of BDD. She then guides readers through the basics of the disorder and through the many treatment options that work and don't work. --from publisher description.

"Childhood Abuse, Body Shame, and Addictive Plastic Surgery explores the psychopathology that plastic surgeons can encounter when seemingly excellent surgical candidates develop body dysmorphic disorder postoperatively.

Written from the unique perspective of a leading plastic surgeon with extensive experience in this area and featuring many poignant clinical vignettes and groundbreaking trauma research, this heavily-referenced text offers a new explanation for body dysmorphic disorder that provides help for therapists and surgeons and hope for patients"--

Abstract

'Ik liep aan de hand van mijn oom door de stad, lang geleden. Een meneer hield ons aan en begroette mijn oom. Deze keek hem glimlachend aan; ze spraken een aantal minuten beleefd met elkaar. "Wie was dat?" vroeg ik toen we daarna verder liepen. "Ik heb geen enkel idee," zei mijn oom, "maar ik geloof niet dat hij dat gemerkt heeft."' De bovenstaande situatie is waarschijnlijk voor veel mensen herkenbaar. De hippocampus, een gedeelte van de hersenen dat de vorm heeft van een zeepaardje, laat ons hier in de steek bij het maken van de koppeling tussen gezicht, naam en omgeving. Neurobiologe Marianne Joëls verhaalt op zeer persoonlijke, originele én wetenschappelijke wijze over de werking van de hersenen in het dagelijks leven. Puttend uit haar eigen ervaringen vertelt ze onder meer over haar tantes alzheimer en de dyslexie van haar neef, en herinnert ze zich haar eigen geworstel met de vraag hoe je je kind weerbaar kunt maken door de wijze van opvoeden. In 'Een zeepaardje in je hoofd' geeft Marianne Joëls onze hersenen op haast literaire wijze een prominente plek in het leven van alledag. De auteur, hoogleraar algemene dierkunde aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam, schrijft in dit boek over de functie van de menselijke hersenen. De gebeurtenissen en de personen die beschreven worden, zijn blijkens de verantwoording aan het eind van het boek fictief, maar in hoge mate geinspireerd door de werkelijkheid. De 23 essays kan men beschouwen als casuistieke mededelingen over hersenafwijkingen en wetenswaardigheden over de functie van de hersenen en het gedrag. Tot de eerste categorie behoren onder andere het syndroom van Down, autisme, ADHD, het syndroom van Rett, dyslexie, de obsessief compulsieve stoornis en de ziekte van Huntington. Tot de tweede onder andere moederschapgedrag en de geheugenfunctie.
