I feel SO ugly?
Ive always felt ugly, especialy compared to my friends, but a few months ago i had jaw surgery to correct my overbite, id been waiting for years and after really thought it would change my life and make me happier as id been able to have a proper smile and better jaw line. But after months of recovering i finaly went back to college this september, and no1 even noticed!! I even asked people if theyd noticed and they just say 'yeah kinda' and ask how i am but NO1 has actualy said i look any better, im even beggining to think i may look worse, i think i ma have body dismorphic though and have now began to obbsess over my nose aswell. I jsut have really low confidence in myself now, no 1 ever ever says i look nice exept my mum and 1 close friend! All my friends are always getting compliments from people saying they like there clothes new hair cut etc, i just feel gross :( any1 else feel like this? (im 18 btw) This is me http://s190.photobucket.com/albums/z70/xindiaxx/?action=view¤t=fgf.jpg
Why do i feel so ugly?
Dear Friend, Pretty is more a state of mind. Everyone can be beautiful or ugly. It depends on what is inside, so if you feel bad about yourself, you will feel and look ugly. I am a woman and I know how the emphasis on looks can be a problem. One of the things I learned was not to be so sensitive about things. It seems like you are depressed and need to talk to your doctor about getting some help. There is no shame in that. Once a month around our periods our body produces a lot of progesterone. Progesterone is a downer and can make you cry over nothing. So it takes a while to feel better. Some women never feel better. They just stay in the dumps. But believe me, there is something you can do about it. First, start doing things that please you, and make you happy. Don't worry about what over people think. Take a warm bath, cook something nice for yourself, make your room and bed pretty and pleasing to you, etc. Be selfish for a while. Only be around people who are nice to you and help you to laugh. Second, start to explore who you are. What are your values? What kind of a person do you want to be? What are the things you do not like. Are you kind? Do you care about things? What are you good at? Build an unshakable center of thoughts and beliefs that are just yours, that you don't necessarily share with other. Laugh and get lots of exercise and drink lots of water. Third, begin to tell yourself that who you are doesn't depend of others. But say: "I am me and that is good." Fourth, the feelings of heaviness are not unusual. You really just have to accept the issues of your body, do what you can about it, and try not to be constantly aware of the negative. Bones, skin, hair, etc. it is all the baggage that we carry as individual people. You really can choose what you think about. I am old and if I paid attention to all my body issues, I would get depressed, too. I could say more, but just this...Breath and relax. You will deepen your personal skills as you go. Just do simple things and pay attention to the present. Think about managing your thoughts and accepting your life. GOOD LUCK Hecate
Why do I feel so ugly?
Hi, firstly I am so sorry you feel this way. Remember you’re just feeling this way and this by no means is the truth.The way I see it, life is short..there is no point in waking up each morning and hating yourself and your looks. Sooner or later all of that will be taken away from you. Might as well enjoy it and appreciate what you have. Because it’s not permanent—you & your looks. It’s very temporary and constantly changing with age.Beauty is subjective. What you perceive as not beautiful is beautiful to someone else. There are 7 billion people in the world, they don’t have the same beliefs. They are their own separate individual. And someone will definitely see you as the most beautiful.Physical beauty is a small part of an individual. Beauty completely vanishes often as soon as you talk to the individual whom you perceive as attractive; as soon as you see their character, all of their beauty vanishes so fast in your mind. On the other hand you fall more deeply in love with a person with a beautiful character.Life too short.. please meet new people, grow, go to new places, and be around people who appreciate you. Life is too short to waste it on hating yourself or your looks. Change your thoughts. Even hating yourself is just you hating the negative thought created by your mind. Wake up each day being enough for yourself and being your own friend because one day you won’t have yourself(your physical body will be gone). Please don’t waste this short precious life caring about people’s opinion of you who do not love you or appreciate you, instead develop yourself and surround yourself with people who love you deeply. And trust their always will be people who will love you. But the most important thing is that you love yourself. This is your life. Don’t give it to someone else.P.S you can try watching Louise HayTake care
I feel ugly all the time, what should i do?
I'm sorry, you have very low self esteem. I was that way in high school and I still suffer from it a little. It's not much help, I know, to tell you that you are probably very pretty and that you shouldn't worry about what other people think, but it's the truth! Looks and youth are fleeting things, but being a good person won't change, and that is the really important thing. The media does all kinds of terrible things to young girls and women. It puts so much pressure on us to be attractive and to feel accepted because of it. Please feel lucky that you aren't some kind of a burn victim and that you are still quite intact. I've seen people who have had their faces blown away and lived to tell about it and still kept a positive attitude because they were strong and they were good people and they know where true beauty comes from. And really, I doubt that people look at you and think terrible things about you, they are probably too busy being concerned with their own insecurities. Just keep being a good person, that really is all that matters!
I'm ugly. =( What should I do?
I know how everyone says it's the personality that counts... But let's all be honest here. Appearance definitely matters. Humans are shallow creatures. And if I want to even get the attention of a guy I have to look attractive.. but I'm not.. and I just feel so lonely and ugly and unloved... I have a decent body, but have an ugly face... I'm a 17 year old girl with butterscotch blond hair, and I have a long, thin face, and a poor complexion. I have acne, and veins under my eyes. I have ugly ears attached at the bottom. I have chicken pox scars on my forehead from when I was like.. four. I have a big mole on my neck... and have a long neck. My nose is big.My eyebrowns are wierd shaped My eyes are creepy and look tired all the time. The irises are two different colors, but they're not even pretty. They're ugly shades of hazel. Nothing looks good on me because of my ugly face.. no hair style or clothing makes it look good... I compared myself to the hot or not scale and I'm only between 1 to 4.4... My friends try to tell me I'm pretty of cute or beautiful, but I know it's not true. They know how I feel and just want to improve my self esteem.. No guys have ever liked me in person except the desperate creeper guys who thought I would be easy. If it weren't for my fugly face guys would like me because I normally have such a kind, lovable personality(I'm just feeling depresses right now).. lots of guys have fallen for me online... But guys in person won't give me a chance... People tell me I have to have confidence in myself, but that's not good advice. It's not magic. How am I supposed to feel confident in myself if I'm stupid, slow, ugly, and not very talented? How does that advice do me any good? There's nothing I can really do to change it.. but I can't help feeling down.. Every time I go shopping, and every time I look in the mirror, there is my ugly face staring back at me. Ruining my hair, making nothing look good, making it so I can't wear anything I like or be the person I want to be.. I just can't help feeling how unfair it is that I'm so ugly and no one wants to give me a chance because of it... I'm depressed and I just don't know what to do.. I want to be loved and accepted.. I want to be myself.. but my appearance holds me back.. What can I do to change my outlook on things and feel better about myself? What should I do?
I am so ugly. I should kill myself?
lol i feel like crying. call me.. pathetic. i hate taking pictures, and i hate people taking them of me. why? because i feel that i am this hideous monster. no matter what, i am ugly. I hte when people stare, why? because.. I feel that thwy are staring at my ugliness. ever since i was little, my mother always called me ugly, or hideous. she praised my twin sister, but me? i was the ugly duckling. everyone compliments my sister. but not me. :(:( i try SO hard to be optimistic, to find and feel that i am beautiful, but it's not enough. i took at least 3 pictures of myself. they were decent, but god i hate looking at myself. why do I exist?why am I alive? maybe this is why i have never had a boyfriend. because i am a monster, and monsters don't deserve love. this has made me shy from the world, unable to show the world how i truly feel and what i can offer. i am even considering getting plastic surgery. anything to make me beautiful on the outside. im not fat, or too thin as i used to be. but now i know i must watch what i eat, i feel hideous. i am hideous. my mom says so. i don't have a boyfriend. I'm not smart, I'm hideous. i have nothing going for me. I'm just 17, I know it's young. I don't look as pretty as the girls at my school. they're so beautiful.
