The following Video was aired on June 25, 2005 ABS-CBN. It is a feature in the Magandang Gabi Bayan – MGB special interest show. If there is ANOREXIA, then its counterpart is BIGOREXIA – Muscle Dysmorphia or Megarexia.
It is a disorder in which a person becomes obsessed with the idea that they are not muscular enough.[1] Those who suffer from muscle dysmorphia tend to hold delusions that they are “skinny” or “too small” but are often above average in musculature. Sometimes referred to as reverse anorexia nervosa, or the Adonis Complex, muscle dysmorphia is a very specific type of body dysmorphic disorder. In this disorder a person is preoccupied with thoughts concerning appearance, especially musculature. As with other forms of body dysmorphic disorder, muscle dysmorphia is strictly connected with selective attention: individuals selectively focus their attention on perceived defect (too skinny body, underweight etc.). They are hypervigilant to even small deviations from perceived ideal and they ignore information that their body image is not consistent with reality.
