The aim of inpatient care is that you are given the opportunity to receive more focused support and in-depth treatment from experts in BDD. If you have had BDD for a long time and other treatments haven't been successful, if you are housebound, if you can't manage daily tasks, or you have strong thoughts about suicide it may be a positive consideration to spend a period in inpatient care. This would normally be approximately one or two months. It may be a more positive boost for those who are housebound or unable to live on their own and can help you to focus and absorb new tools more effectively. Inpatient treatment
may also help if you have other conditions to address along with your
BDD, for example an eating disorder, severe depression, or another mental
health condition. One Person's account of Privately Funded Treatment One Person's account of NHS Inpatient Treatment
