How terrible is Phantom Ugliness?
Phantom ugliness is called "body deformation" in clinic. Body dysmorphic disorder is a disease caused by preconceived concept of appearance defect, which makes patients feel intense pain and affects their life, work and other important functions. People suffering from the mental illness of "body deformation disorder" hold imaginary or seriously exaggerated defect prejudice against some parts of their appearance, which is manifested in disgust, disgust and humiliation of these "defects", and even suffer from this concept, leading to depression, suicide and so on.
The main characteristics of phantom ugliness
1, often spend a lot of time looking in the mirror repeatedly to check the "defects" of the body, or avoid the mirror out of fear of "defects", pay too much attention to some parts of your appearance and keep complaining.
2, frequent haircut, heavy makeup. In order to prevent others from discovering their "defects", they often cover their faces with hats, scarves or veils.
They firmly believe that a certain part of their body is ugly and must change their physical defects through surgery.
4, the pursuit of perfection but never agree with the surgical effect. I found many operations in plastic surgery hospital, but I was always dissatisfied with the effect of the operations.
There are two types of phantom ugliness.
One is that the plastic surgery effect is not good or damaged by the hospital, and it is constantly being repaired. Any plastic surgery is risky, and the more plastic surgery, the higher the risk. In particular, many girls often receive irregular injection cosmetic surgery in beauty salons, and product quality problems and injection technology problems may bring adverse consequences. In order to clean up the "rotten tail", we have to do several more operations and repair it repeatedly.
The other is a perfectionist. These women are addicted to plastic surgery many times. Before their first plastic surgery, they are inevitably afraid, have low expectations and are usually satisfied with the results. However, after tasting the sweetness, it was out of control. As long as you see what you are not satisfied with, you will go for plastic surgery, hoping to make yourself more beautiful through repeated plastic surgery. Or the opposite situation, that is, suffering from "magic ugliness", feeling that they are not good-looking, not satisfied, and will not give up.
The root of illusion and ugliness
Nowadays, the popular aesthetic trend in society is to measure a person's "beauty" with mechanical and modular quantitative standards. Plastic surgery, in Zhuangzi's words, is "disability", that is, "martyrdom". Wang Bei's facial "grinding bones" for "beauty" is "martyrdom" More than a year ago, Zhang Xuan, an intern in the human resources department of a company, found that the most common primary selection method for human resources managers was to let the people who looked pleasing to the eye pass. According to the aesthetic standards of modern society, who is beautiful? In the survey, the ranking given by the public is: beautiful people (67.3%), powerful people (47.3%), rich and powerful people (46.4%) and famous people (4 1.3%). And "people with inner cultivation" (39. 1%) came last. This result is surprising. This is a true reflection of the aesthetic state of the present society. Nowadays, the media layout is full of entertainment culture, which will bring a one-dimensional' aesthetic' orientation to young people, that is, only looking at appearance, ignoring spirit, superstitious technology and ignoring nature.
How to treat phantom ugliness?
Body dysmorphic disorder needs both medication and psychotherapy. Drug therapy can have an immediate effect, mainly to relieve patients' anxiety and depression. Drugs such as benzodiazepines and antidepressants can be used.
Psychotherapy is to make the patient realize that he exaggerates the importance of physical charm to people. Its purpose is to let patients gradually understand the nature of the disease, change their wrong ideas, alleviate or alleviate the influence of mental factors, and make patients have a correct assessment of their physical condition and health status. Patients have a correct understanding of self and objectivity, enhance their ability to adapt to the environment and reduce recurrence.
At present, cognitive behavioral therapy is the most widely used in five psychiatric wards, and it is the most commonly used therapy besides drug therapy.
Correcting mentality is the key.
There is no denying that everyone loves beauty.
Maybe plastic surgery is similar to homosexuality. You can leave if you want. This is your freedom. However, face cutting is risky after all. It's always good to be cautious. Don't spend all your money on disability.
The ancients said: "Parents suffer from it and dare not harm it. Filial piety begins."
In the past, people preferred boys to girls, and after illegally identifying the sex of the fetus, the girl's baby was aborted. Now there are more girls than boys, and you have to worry about not getting a wife when you have a son.
According to the current aesthetics, if there is any instrument that can predict the future appearance of the fetus, will parents cruelly abort the ugly child? If the instrument goes wrong, the abandoned Uglydoll will break into a butterfly in the future. Will it be another family ethics drama with dog blood?
Aesthetics is different from person to person. Maintaining a good appearance is a social etiquette. If dressing up can make you happy and make others happy, it is naturally the best. If the price of beauty is to let you be swayed by considerations of gain and loss, and the psychological burden is too heavy, then beauty will not last long.
Life is actually that long. There is an ugly illusion, and there may be a beautiful illusion. Whatever you do, have fun.
