ere is a problem with my appearance I have a body image problem
eory A is the theory that you have been acting on for the last X years, it argues that the problem you have is your appearance
What are the implications of following Theory A?
It means that you have to try very hard to hideor alter your appearance. Unfortunately, yoursolutions then become your problem and causeincreasing handicap
eory B is that you have a body image problem.is problem makes you ceively self-consciousabout your appearance. is has probablydeveloped om some your early periences being teased & bullied. Have you niced that solving it as an appearance problem makes yourpreoccupation and distre worse?
Would you be prepared to act as if it wereeory B for at least 4 months? You can alwaysgo back to theory A if its n working.
If theory B were true what would this mean in how you act?
This example is adapted from a workshop given by Veale & Neziroglu at the WCBCT conference in Boston in 2010.PSYCHOLOGYT LS.org
