Sarah Michelle Geller, best known for her
role as Buffy The Vampire Slayer, has
publicly admitted to suffering from the
psychological disorder:
body dysmorphic disorder.

Sarah has reportedly said that she has
suffered from the condition for a while,
however since giving birth to baby daughter,
Charlotte Grace, Sarah has become less
self conscious-- her daughter has helped
her get through her problems.

Body dysmorphic disorder (B.D.D)
occurs when a person
becomes very self conscious of their
physical appearance- so much so that
they become obssessed at how they look
to other people! If untreated, sufferers of
the condition can get very depressed and
in worse cases avoid social interation for
fear that people are judging their appearance.

Good to see that Sarah is getting through
this disorder, her loving daughter and
her husband, Freddie Prinze Jnr
are providing her with the support
she needs!
