We are Raising Awareness, Research and Support for Body Dysmorphia and the BDD Foundation in memory of our sister Zena Sharifa Saher, who lost her like long struggle.
BDD is an isolating and overwhelming anxiety disorder where sufferers fixate on percieved flaws. This high risk condition affects 1% of the population (80million) but only 10% every receive a diagnosis (8million). BDD begins in adolescence and affects anyone. Unfortunately, even though it is high risk for self harm and suicide, we do not know enough about it.
Thank you all for your support so far. We started our climbing training with the UK Three Peaks (our Givestar Page for MindBLMK) and we have just completed Kilimanjaro in Africa (Givestar and Instagram Donation for BDDF). We understand not everyone can access those pages and so we have opted to use Just Giving as well . We have Everest Base Camp Trek and a 7000m mountain, then an 8000m mountain and then on to Everest Summit. You can follow our journey on instagram @namaste_nadia_uk and tiktok @oohahhmulara
