BDD on Oprah
So I was catching up on all the things I Tivoed this weekend and ended up watching the Oprah show with the 28 year old who has had 26 plastic surgery operations. I saw the commercial about it and couldn't believe it, so I had to watch. The illness is Body Dysmorphic Disorder. It is amazing because all of the people who were on the show were better than average looking. They were all under the age of 30 (there were only 3). Jenny (the 28 yr old with the 26 operations) didn't even look like a real person as a matter of fact, she couldn't even breath with her nose if she didn't have Q-tips handy to open up her nostrils. She reminded me (and Oprah) of a certain pop star (she actually requested his nose). Oprah had commented on the show how the surgeons who perform these operations should feel an obligation to tell these people they cannot have any more operations! The odd thing is that she did not continue with that train of thought. She switched subjects..... I wonder why....
