Abstract |
The article deals with the analysis of body dysmorphic disorder and its aspects in different scientific fields. A person with this disorder is preoccupied with one or more perceived defects or flaws in physical appearance that are not observable or appear slight to others, which can in extreme case lead to suicide. Disciplines studying this illness are phenomenology, aesthetics, medicine, psychology, and psychiatry. The author also introduces his ideas, which could widen the spectrum of constructive criticism that deals with body dysmorphic disorder. Today's era is in need of a greater consideration of philosophical critical reflection, as well as phenomenological and aesthetical interpretation. By taking into account philosophical discoveries, other sciences can become more knowledgeable, which can lead to their self-reflection. Thus, these disciplines are able to better understand psychotic disorders, which can contribute to the well-being of the ill individual and of the existing world. © 2020, Zalozba Nova Revija.
