Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is A. body dismorphic.

Explanation:

This disorder occurs when a person believes one or more parts of their body are flawed, and results in an obssession to change them. The flaw may be imaginary or real; when it is real, the importance is exaggerated.

People who suffer from this condition usually hide the perceived flaw, and their constant thoughts might interfere with their everyday activities.
