It falls in classification of DSM5, under BDD similar to anorexia, but it is specifically with the appearance preoccupation that one's own body is too small, too skinny, insufficiently muscular, or insufficiently lean. Muscle dysmorphia primarily affects males. Usually, the individual's build is normal, or sometimes even exceptionally large and muscular already, but the sufferer holds delusions of being \"too small\" or \"too skinny\" compared to other men. Muscle dysmorphia involves disordered fixation on exercising and nutrition, as by devoting inordinate amounts of time and attention on exercise routines, dietary regiments, and nutritional supplements. Use of anabolic steroids is especially high.Sufferers of muscle dysmorphia are typically very distracted from school or work, and may avoid romantic relationships in belief that their own bodies are severely undesirable. When compared to non-muscle versions of body dysmorphic disorder, rates of suicide attempts are especially high. Associated problems have been discussed as the \"Adonis Complex\", an issue more general than muscle dysmorphia, and largely attributed to society's unrealistic standards of ideal bodies for men. Muscle dysmorphia among males might be the similar to anorexia nervosa among females. Yet the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Foundation estimates that one in 10 gym-going men suffers from the disorder."@en }
