This is the disease that Megan Fox suffers and that generates insecurities with her body
The Hollywood actress made several revelations to the British magazine ‘British GQ Style’.
Who would have imagined that one of the sexiest actresses in Hollywood, Megan Fox, presents episodes of anxiety because she thinks that she has many physical defects, which cause her insecurities in front of the public.
In a recent interview with the British magazine British GQ Style, Fox confessed that she suffers from a mental disorder that leads her to imagine that she has many imperfections in her body. “Yes, I have body dysmorphia. I have many deep insecurities, "confessed the actress, 35, who has been in the news several times for her aesthetic changes.
Along with her boyfriend, musician Machine Gun Kelly, the Jennifer's Body actress also spoke about "the inner self" that she has hidden during her career in Hollywood. "We can look at someone and think: 'That person is so beautiful, her life must be very easy.' Most likely, she does not feel that way, "she told the British magazine, quoted by the Argentine newspaper La Nación.
According to experts, the mental health disorder that Megan Fox suffers from makes her not stop thinking about her defects, her appearance, and those supposed imperfections cannot be perceived by others.
Precisely, on October 10, World Mental Health Day was celebrated, and testimonies such as that of the actress Megan Fox reveal that mental illnesses are a reality that thousands of people live with.
What is body dysmorphic disorder?
Specialists from the Mayo Clinic, in the United States, define in an article that body dysmorphia is a "mental health disorder in which you cannot stop thinking about one or more perceived defects or defects in appearance."
Such defects, which are not perceived by others, can make the person feel ashamed, intimidated and even anxious, even leading them to avoid many social situations. These feelings invade the person's thoughts, and even affect their social and work life.
Another surprising case with this pathology is that of the daughter of actress Demi Moore, Tallulah Belle Willis, who punished herself for not looking more like her mother. Tallulah is the youngest daughter of the failed marriage between Hollywood stars Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. The 27-year-old spoke openly about her internal struggle to overcome body dysmorphia.
Last May, the young woman decided to open up to her 350 thousand followers on Instagram, and made a confession: "I punished myself for not looking like my mother, after they told me that I was identical to my father since I was born," he wrote about her famous and attractive parents, without hesitating to go into detail about what it has been like for her to deal with this all her life.
In another of the sections of her writing, Tallulah, a fashion designer based in Los Angeles, recommended to people who like her face this type of internal conflicts about the importance of going to specialists.
"We all want to feel good and safe, but when she sneaks into a deeper and more creepy place where she begins to devour your essence little by little, she asks for help." Undoubtedly a message that due to its rawness and depth, can be more effective than any campaign or popularity bath before the cameras.
She also drew attention to the choice of photographs that she made to address the issue. She included a photo of her from a few years ago, another of her without a drop of makeup on her face, and of course a couple of her mother in her youth. "Aging occurs without your control, time passes and your face can change," she commented in her heartfelt statement, accepting that like many, her face has changed with age.
