Recently, I've been wondering about body image concerns and the possibility of body dysmorphic disorder. Is anyone familiar with this? What are the signs, and what steps can be taken for support? @SoulTherapyWithHarleenBagga

Hey! Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is when someone obsesses over perceived flaws in their appearance. Signs can include excessive grooming, seeking reassurance, and avoiding social situations.

I know my dad's issues stemmed from his own childhood trauma. It doesn't excuse his behavior, but it helps me to understand it. I feel empathy towards him which is hampering my mental health. How do I deal with it?

I drew boundaries with him. That meant a) telling him his behaviour bothered me b) Created physical distance. c) nurtured my connection with myself. When he continued to do what he was doing, second gear of boundaries came into place that meant loving myself more and making hard choices. So not doing what I did in the past, no more excuses for his bad behaviour. Form boundaries and distance for disrespect helped me conserve my energy.

is feeling lonely a mental illness?? If yes, how can it be cured??
Loneliness is an experience, never an illness. It's important that a person be comfortable with themselves in silence when no one is around.

What is codependency in a relationship?? Does it affect the mental health of both the people involved in a relationship??
Hi Dear. I'm a Consultant Psychologist and Sexual Health Expert. Codependent relationships are one where either of your emotions and sense of self depends on the other person. This is considered unhealthy because there is lack of boundaries, healthy space and trust. It would affect both of you. If it's somethings that affects you, do come on my live and talk to me.

How can I respect other’s beliefs abt mental health without compromising my own?? Because some family members of mine do not seem to see the fact thar mental health is actually a thing and not just a ‘pagalpan ki nishani’
Anonymous18d
hi there, I'm a clinical psychologist and from experience I can tell you the navigating differences and beliefs about mental health, especially within our family, can be specially challenging. I would love to offer you a few suggestions to go about this in your own family. firstly, it is amazing that yourself informed and educated enough to know the importance of mental health, this can help you articulate your own perspective clearly. communicating with your family can be difficult, but we should always remember to show empathy and my suggestions to you would be to use " I " phrase such as " I understand where you are coming from but I feel overwhelmed when I can't express myself" this seems to take the blame away from them and puts your own needs as a priority. setting boundaries is another thing that I would love to talk to you about as it is important for any healthy relationship. please feel free to reach out to me anytime you want and I would love to help you through these times

i am a 30-year-old professional working in a high-stress job. Over the past few months, I've noticed a significant increase in intrusive, distressing thoughts. What if I'm afraid of my own thoughts? How can I manage or overcome this fear, and are there strategies or professional help available to help me cope with these intrusive thoughts?

I always try my best to help others, but sometimes there are people I can't help, and that affects my mental health. How can I manage feeling like I have two conflicting personalities?
Your willingness and empathy to help is great but you also have to shook off the pressure that will they be helped, all you can do is best efforts and then not take the guilt, you have the right intention yet its not always in your control of outcome

Do planets cause mental illness? If so, which ones and why? Can mental illness be overcome through astrology without medication?
Anonymous21d
Why planets? Your neighbour or your boss also can cause mental illness. Only medicines can cure mental illness. Astrology cannot help in this matter.
