Appearance anxiety

I compare aspects of my appearance to others

I check my appearance (e.g. in mirrors, by touching with my fingers, or by taking photos of myself)

I avoid situations or people because of my appearance

I brood about past events or reasons to explain why I look the way I do

I think about how to camouflage or alter my appearance

I am focussed on how I feel I look, rather than on my surroundings

I avoid reflective surfaces, photos, or videos of myself

I discuss my appearance with others or question them about it

I try to camouflage or alter aspects of my appearance

I try to prevent people from seeing aspects of my appearance within particular situations (e.g. by changing my posture, avoiding bright lights)
