what mental disorders drive BB

[ESFitness]

I dunno about "mental disorder", but I'd say we all have an underlying desire to "show them".

just like any other successful businessman or athlete, we tend to think "i'll show them".

we tend to have a chip on our shoulder... something to prove, not only to others, but to ourselves.

when I was a kid, I was skinny. my family (uncles/cousins, ect..) were all BIG farm boys. I remember getting ready for church, or a funeral or something at my grandpas house when I was like 7 or something, and my pants were too big and I needed a belt, and my girl-cousin makes a snide comment like "well, if you weren't so skinny..." .... that comment, and the way she said it really pissed me off, and I remember it to this day. but there were many comments like that that stick with me. even back then I knew I wanted to be a bodybuilder (I'd known since I was about 4-5yrs old, watching bodybuilding on ESPN and seeing Lee haney on tv.. I have memory like Rainman. lol)... so i'd always had in the back of my mind "i'll show them... one day they'll see me and i'll say 'who's skinny now?' "

same as in school... I got bad grades, and some friends parents would tell their kids that I would be a bum and be homeless, and teachers would say/think I was gonna be a dropout and never amount to anything... I wouldn't do homework, but come time for a test or quiz, i'd get 90-95% and they'd think I cheated... one teacher says to me "**** you're 'special', aren't you?" making fun of me in front of the class, thinking I was too dumb to catch on to her sarcasim... I replied, "you're fucking right I'm special", it was right before we had finals, and we graded on a curve. well, I  finished at least a half-hour before anybody else. and I got to sit there and look at the teacher staring at me with her smug little look. coming to collect the papers, she says "you really should take this more serious" thinking I just filled in answers.. then she passes out the papers randomly for us to grade, and I get a 98%. everybody was pissed at me for throwing off the curve. i remember raising my hand and telling her, "Mrs. Whatever, your little joke isn't so funny now, huh? told you I'm 'special'."... the look on her face was priceless. i can remember it to this day.

the women want to be men.very fucked up indeed

I don`t think thats the case.  I think the women who do it, want to feel superior or dominant over other females.

What mental disorders drive BB's to live the lifestyle and take on all sorts of chemicals and ridiculous training and eating regimens
I am not judging  Simply asking for fellow lifters insights to a lifestyle understood by few.   

u should ask your mom this question.she has lots of experience taking  chemically enhanced dicks working in porn movies.

I agree.

My view: everybody has an eating disorder. Nobody who is into confining their body to fit some sort of look will ever be able to look at food without doing some sort of calculation or contemplation before eating it.

The Adonis syndrome , is the disorder that was pretty much coined for physique type athlete

[Primemuscle]

Body dysmorphia and narcissism.

Ha, ha! These conditions probably exist to some degree in most people, not just bodybuilders. It is a rare person who sees themselves as others do when they look in the mirror. Without a doubt, being somewhat narcissistic in terms of how you look can be a benefit in bodybuilding. If posing one's muscular development on the competition stage, artificially tanned and while wearing almost nothing isn't a bit narcissistic, well then, I don't know what is. Guess there is nothing wrong with a little narcissism as long as it doesn't get out of hand it could also be called having an ego or being confident.

[Primemuscle]

Tell me what is not a "mental disorder"... ?

Sure seems like everything is labeled as such these days. People forget that it is also about degrees. When someone is extremely one way or another, they are more likely to have some mental issues, IMO.

[Primemuscle]

Low-intelligence?

Some bodybuilders are very intelligent.

everything is strategy of survival. If your SOS fails it is seen as an abnomrlaity, "mental illness", if it succeeds or if noone notices what you ve done, everyone will applaud you or ignore what you ve done.

[Primemuscle]

I agree.

My view: everybody has an eating disorder. Nobody who is into confining their body to fit some sort of look will ever be able to look at food without doing some sort of calculation or contemplation before eating it.

I don't calculate or contemplate what or how much I eat. If I am hungry, I eat. If not, I don't. If I have a craving for ice-cream, I have some. If I am craving sushi, I have that too. Not everyone is obsessed with what they eat.

LOL.  Talk about defensive.  Why don't you just come out and admit you have a mental disorder instead of deflecting and pointing the finger at others.  We all know it isn't normal to quaff copious amounts of drugs to exaggerate normal levels of muscularity and then to shave all your body hair, paint yourself with fake tan and parade around onstage in tiny briefs.  It's the physical manifestation of some pretty serious psychological insecurities, you don't need to be Freud to work that out. 

Not everybody who lifts weights does so for the above reasons.

[Marty Champions]

We are all taught to kill instead of being killed by those who "raise us" whoever they are. So whatever the strategy of survival one has been conditioned to use, in the end we re all doing the same, killing or getting killed. Those who cant kill anymore or kill "too obviously" too many people are labeled as mentally ill, as simple as that. Just because they are the extremes. But fact is in the middle, the "common, normal" people all spend their existences killing instead of being killed too. We re all schizoid animals who pretend they arent animals and they arent killing to insure they re survival. This is a vast joke.

not vegans
