Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) involves an excessive and distressing preoccupation with one's imagined or slight physical flaws. It is considered an OCD-related disorder because of the compulsive behaviors that often accompany it, such as mirror checking or seeking reassurance from others. Excoriation (skin-picking) and trichotillomania (hair-pulling) are also OCD-related disorders, but they do not involve preoccupation with physical appearance. Hoarding disorder is not considered an OCD-related disorder, but rather its own separate category in the DSM-5.
