It’s safe to say that our society is very focused on body image. Advertisers peddle products to help you “look your best,” and the media is obsessed with people who have the “perfect body.” Sometimes all of these messages can increase worry and even obsession about how you look. Poor body image can lead to the development of poor self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and even eating disorders and body dysmorphia. Women are often the focus when it comes to body image, but men can also suffer from poor body image as well.
