The article from MSN discusses the increasing prevalence of "bigorexia," or muscle dysmorphia, a condition where individuals, often young men, obsess over their perceived lack of muscularity despite being well-built. This condition, a subtype of body dysmorphic disorder, is becoming more common, particularly among teens influenced by social media and fitness culture. Symptoms include excessive exercise, strict dieting, and the use of supplements or steroids to achieve an idealized body image. The article highlights the psychological toll, including anxiety, depression, and social isolation, and emphasizes the importance of parental awareness. Parents are advised to watch for signs like extreme focus on body image, withdrawal from social activities, and changes in eating habits. It suggests fostering open communication about body image, promoting a balanced approach to fitness, and seeking professional help if signs of bigorexia are evident. The piece also notes the role of societal pressures and the need for a supportive environment to help mitigate the risks associated with this disorder.
