"Muscle dysmorphia (also known as "megarexia", "bigorexia", or "reverse anorexia nervosa") is a disorder that is characterized by a fear of being too small, and perceiving oneself as small and weak even when one is actually large and muscular"
Anyone else struggling from this? I get compliments regulary, but still feel small and miserable. Any tips to overcome this bllshit?

Boost your ego, think that you look way better than mostly people you'll encounter as they're hamplanets or skeletons.
Think also of your progress, what you looked like when you started and now.

I have never though of myself like this, because I have no desire to be big. Athleticism and strength are more important. Being able to fit through doors and wipe your own ass without tearing muscles is also a benefit.
Seriously, stop being so insecure.
You got a pic op? i too get compliments on how how I'm looking better but don't think my body's changed since i started, Everything looks small and undefined to me.. its so depressing some times
>Tfw bad insertions
>Tfw no amount of mass will make me aesthetic
Fuck. This isn't body dysmorphia

me.
i'v been going to the gym for almost a year already. my family/co-workers tell me i look much better then before but i just dont see it. sure i see my chest,legs, shoulders look better but my stomach is the thing i see holds me back.

Newsflash: Coleman is skelly mode. Dude couldn't even deadlift 500kg for reps. So he was weak too.

Not that bad bro. It is kinda strange that your shoulders protrude so much, maybe you need to work your traps more?
But trust me, there's MUCH worse. You seem to have 6pack or zipper abs so those insertions are fine, your size is mid-tier (good), and you don't seem to have gyno or pancake nipples
Just gotta lift a bit more and then get a bit cut. Probably look good by then.
I'm LITERALLY doomed because i have a concave sternum, the middle of my chest can't grow muscle or size in any way so I'll always look like somewhat of a freak. But i can't change it so oh well, not without surgery anyways.

you need to fix your posture. My guess is that your not retracting your scapula far enough when you bench hence the weird shape of your chest, the lack of inner chest development and traps.
