I suffer from BDD but want to make a change, (need some encouraging words)

Hi everyone!

I've recently been diagnosed with BDD, (body dysmorphic disorder), despite it being an 11 year struggle. In the past, I've done everything to lose weight. Crash diets, starving myself, throwing up meals.. etc; . Nothing stuck, and I gained the weight back. I was a swimmer in high school and was very athletic. I always thought I was fat and disgusting, but comparing myself from then to now is.. a harsh realization. I want to be that fit again.

Recently, life has been a little harder. I gained some weight & I'm not at an ideal weight right now. I feel extremely unhappy and discouraged. I don't look at mirrors, and doing things for myself just makes me feel guilty. However, I know I need to lose weight to be happier. I want to be healthy and implement a gym routine.

This might sound stupid, but can I get some advice? Any encouraging words? I'm scared and ready, just not sure how to take the first step to change my lifestyle. Thanks Reddit
