"If one thinks that BDD might simply be a new age coinage for vanity,Phillips...makes a convincing case for taking a second look by drawing on yearsof clinical practice, research, and patient interviews."--Book News, "Nobody knows more about Body Dysmorphic Disorder than Dr. Phillips and her book, The Broken Mirror, will be invaluable to patients who suffer from the disorder, members of their family who do not know how to be helpful, and finally, to the clinician who wants to know the latest researchevidence regarding the effectiveness of different treatment approaches."--Dr. Robert L. Spitzer, New York State Psychiatric Institute, "One of psychiatry's special gifts is, occasionally, to give a public name to isolating forms of torment. The Broken Mirror offers that gift, as well as reason to hope, to those who worry obsessively about their appearance. Katherine Phillips provides an authoritative look at anunderrecognized and devastating disorder."--Peter D. Kramer, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Brown University, and author of Listening to Prozac, "Dr. Phillips' book is a landmark in the recognition and treatment of imagined ugliness. This book, beautifully written, provides a great deal of hope for patients with body dysmorphic disorder and their family members and should help speed recovery for countless sufferers of this common,fascinating, and disabling illness."--Eric Hollander, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, The Mount Sinai Medical Center, "Nobody knows more about Body Dysmorphic Disorder than Dr. Phillips andher book, The Broken Mirror, will be invaluable to patients who suffer from thedisorder, members of their family who do not know how to be helpful, andfinally, to the clinician who wants to know the latest research evidenceregarding the effectiveness of different treatment approaches."--Dr. Robert L.Spitzer, New York State Psychiatric Institute, "Dr. Phillips' book is a landmark in the recognition and treatment ofimagined ugliness.

Synopsis
Jane is an attractive woman in her mid-thirties, tall, thin, and stately. She believes she is breathtakingly ugly. Tormented by what she sees as her huge nose, crooked lip, big jaw, fat buttocks, and tiny breasts, she has not left her house in six years. Though she lives in the same house as her mother, she once went two years without seeing her. When relatives come over, she avoids them, staying up on the third floor of the house, even on Thanksgiving. The one time she left the house--forced to see a doctor--she covered her face with bandages. Eventually, she attempted suicide. "I can't imagine any suffering greater than this. If I had a choice, I'd rather be blind or have my arms cut off. I'd be happy to have cancer." Jane has body dysmorphic disorder, or BDD. In The Broken Mirror, Dr. Katharine Phillips draws on years of clinical practice and detailed interviews with over 200 patients to bring readers the first book on this debilitating disease, in which sufferers are obsessed by perceived flaws in their appearance. Phillips describes severe cases, such as Jane's, but also a multitude of milder cases, such as Carl, a successful lawyer who uses his work to distract him from his supposedly thinning hair, yet says that he thinks about it constantly. Many sufferers are able to function very well in society, but remain secretly obsessed by their "hideous acne" or "horrible nose," sneaking constant peeks at a pocket mirror, or spend hours at a time redoing makeup. According to Phillips' research, BDD afflicts approximately 2% of the population, or nearly 5 million people. It is not an uncommon disorder, simply a hidden one, since sufferers are often embarrassed to tell even their closest friends about their concerns: one woman, after fifty years of marriage, still felt too uncomfortable to reveal her preoccupation to her husband. Besides the fascinating story of the disease itself, The Broken Mirror is also a literally lifesaving handbook for sufferers, their families, and their doctors. Left untreated, the torment of BDD can lead to psychiatric hospitalization and sometimes suicide. With treatment, many sufferers are able to lead normal lives. Phillips provides a quick self-assessment questionnaire, helping readers distinguish between normal concern with appearance and the obsession of BDD to determine whether they or someone they know have BDD. She includes warning signs for dermatologists and plastic surgeons, since they are the medical professionals who see BDD sufferers most often as they continually seek to "fix" their looks. Other chapters outline effective treatments for BDD using drugs and cognitive-behavioral therapy, answering often-asked questions about treatments. Finally, Phillips includes a chapter aimed at the friends and families of BDD sufferers. Profoundly affected by the disease themselves, since sufferers often refuse to attend weddings and other family events, or constantly ask loved ones for reassurance about their looks, those who care about someone with BDD will find both helpful advice and reassurance in this indispensable book. The Broken Mirror--the first book on this underrecognized disorder--is essential reading for the psychiatrists, mental health professionals, and other physicians who see these often undiagnosed patients; for the friends and family concerned and upset by a loved one who won't believe their reassurances; and for the millions who suffer from BDD in silence and secrecy., Jane is an attractive woman in her mid-thirties, tall, thin, and stately.

In The Secret Obsession, Katharine Phillips describes what is known about body dysmorphic disorder--what patients experience, what she and other researchers have learned about it, and what treatments seem to be helpful. Through case studies, Phillips brings the voices of those afflicted with BDD close to home and shows us that there is hope for those of us who suffer in front of the mirror everyday.
