He lost all that in one day? :suspect:
Mobiles aren't the problem, but the vain attitude.

quite amazed how it's only been the last year selfies have been a big deal when they've been around for years and years and years

Erm..will be honest and say when I heard about this my first thoughts were along the lines of what a vain ****ing attention seeking idiot
But I realise now he must have mental issues. Should be being treated, not spread all over the papers...

The first bit was my reaction too until I read your post and now I'm feeling second bit :laugh:. Hope he's okay.

wow, he's got me beat. is that the kind of camera where you had to hold perfectly still for 10 seconds? lol
..he's a really good looking young guy but that's obviously not what he sees with his disorder...very sad but commendable that he's helping others...

He wants it in the Press
He was was on TV yesterday morning
and is better now
he is trying to help others that do the same kind of thing
it was a mental problem
now he is older and wiser.
That's the sort of behaviour a person with BDD might go through. Very few get help though because as evidenced on here, the immediate thought of people is 'oh that person is vain'.

Good on him. It affects up to 2% of the population and most suffer in silence for fear of being disregarded as vain and pathetic. I'm on one of the most incapacitated spectrums of this disorder, I sympathise with this lad greatly and I'm glad he's put his head above the parapet.

..I agree with you, it's commendable that he's trying to help others and in doing that, laying himself open to personal criticism and scrutiny which does happen..it's always sad to see people unable/incapable of seeing what others see when they look in the mirror and must be an awful disorder to function with...

it's not vain/attention seeky at all :conf2: everyone's kinda 'pressured' to take a selfie nowadays for Facebook/twitter etc, this just sounds like a person who's desperately unhappy with his appearance struggling to find a picture he can deem acceptable. Taking 200 photos isn't the same thing as uploading 200 photos, and that is definitely vain. I doubt this person shares a lot of pictures of himself online
