Is it normal to avoid mirrors

Simple01

My 15 year old daughter is waiting for a diagnosis of autism.

She has taken  all her mirrors out of the room, including her door of her wardrobe which had mirrors on it.

Her wardrobe  door is heavy and I can not believe she was able to pull it off. 

Is this behaviour normal.

  • I'm not thrilled about what I see in the mirror, but I don't avoid them as that just gets in the way of radical acceptance. I think at one stage I had out of control BDD, but now I'm closer to something more true - I'm no looker but not the ugliest who's ever lived.
