[Dorothy]

It is not quite easy to help a girlfriend with body image issues but that doesn't mean it's not doable. It requires patience, empathy and emotional safety to do this. You could start by encouraging healthy self talk, self love and making sure to avoid criticism about her appearance. Trust me, these little things will make a huge difference. Also, you should also try to encourage her to focus on her inner beauty more. You should support her all through the journey to tackle body image issues.

Letting go of the societal standards will help your girlfriend a lot. Body image is bad, it may result in anxiety, depression and even eating disorders. It may as well reduce self-esteem to a minimum that it affects the career and social life of a person.
