Question

Jasmine is always complaining that she doesn't like the way she looks. She tells her friend Amber that she thinks her thighs are too big and that she feels fat. Amber assures Jasmine that she isn't fat, but Jasmine won't listen. It is likely that Jasmine may be suffering from
A) peer pressure.
B) a negative body image.
C) anxiety.
D) depression.

Answer 1

Answer:

B)A negative body image

Explanation:

She could also be suffering form body dysmorphia, a mental disease in which the patient is fixed on a supposed physical flaw that is frequently not real. (For example, a person with a medium-sized nose who believes that he or she has an extremely large nose).

In the question, Jasmine believes that she is fact while apparently she is not, going by her friend's opinion.
