Hey there,

So, dysphoria is where the individual is dissatisfied with their biological sex and feels like their gender does not reflect this , and this can present itself as extreme dissatisfaction with the body you're in. On the other hand,  body dysmorphia is where you have a distorted perception of how your body looks versus how it actually is, so you feel like it looks very different than how it is. Does that make sense?

Yes, That makes sence thank you!^^

No worries :)

Would you like anything else explaining, or are you good?
