The outlook is promising for people with BDD who receive and follow treatment. Those with a strong support team tend to do better in the long run.
People with BDD are at high risk for developing major depression, and the distress associated with the disorder puts people with BDD at high risk for suicide. Treatment is advisable as soon as a person begins to have symptoms. Encouraging healthy and realistic attitudes about body image is helpful, as well as a supportive environment.
