Tanorexic 

Tanorexia nervosa is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a tanning disorder characterized by a distorted tone perception and the persistent thought that no matter how dark a person gets, he or she still believes they are not tan enough.
The social repercussions usually lead to disillusionment and depression on the part of the friendless, Tanorexic individual and more seriously, severe health problems.
