Selfie taking is a mental disorder - British psychiatrist
A recent study, reportedly has deemed that ‘selfies may have a mental disorder and worse comes to worst, there is currently no cure for the disorder, however, temporary treatment is available through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
The disorder is called selfitis, and is defined as the obsessive compulsive desire to take photos of one’s self and post them on social media as a way to make up for the lack of self-esteem.
Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to help a patient to recognize the reasons for his or her compulsive behavior and then to learn how to moderate it.
According to psychiatrist Dr David Veale:
Borderline selfitis : taking photos of one’s self at least three times a day but not posting them on social media
Acute selfitis: taking photos of one’s self at least three times a day and posting each of the photos on social media
Chronic selfitis: Uncontrollable urge to take photos of one’s self round the clock and posting the photos on social media more than six times a day
Some people disagree with British psychiatrist Dr David Veale.
So be careful taking those selfies folks, you may just be deemed to have a mental disorder....wink!

According to psychiatrist Dr David Veale:
And the cracking part is, there are three levels of the disorder: LOLTwo out of three of all the patients who come to see me with Body Dysmorphic Disorder since the rise of camera phones have a compulsion to repeatedly take selfies.Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), or body dysmorphia, is an anxiety disorder that causes sufferers to spend a lot of time worrying about their appearance and to have a distorted view of how they look. People that have BDD are deemed to be mentally ill.
