Apple Podcasts5MarshJivUnited States3 years ago - Comforting
Very comforting to hear stories from other people with BDD. It really puts into perspective the shared experience we all have, no matter how different our individual stories are. Really great guests, who explain their stories really well. Please keep making more episodes! Would love episodes on certain aspects of BDD like the factors that sometimes lead to developing it. And would also love a recovery tips episode.
