Do you think that we really see ourselves bigger than we really are? People always tell me how small I am but when I look in the mirror all I see is big. Even though common since tells me otherwise like the fact that my size 2 shorts hang off of me. I just feel fat. Why do we see ourselves bigger? How can you develop a more positive body image?

That is a really good question, Alex.


You probably know it's called body dysmorphic disorder.
