A 25-year-old client is brought in for treatment by the client's parents. The client has been restricting activities and avoiding social contacts because the client has become preoccupied with the client's thighs, calling them "hideous" and "disfiguring." The client believes that people can't stop staring at them because they are so "deformed." Which is the term used to describe these symptoms?
