I loathe myself, every tiny detail about myself. I hate my appearance...My
hair, my face, my teeth, my hands, my eyebrows, chest, stomach, back, arms, etc...I
hate every characteristic of my personality, every last one. I think of my self
as stupid, incompetent and worthless. Everything that goes wrong is my fault. I
suck at every thing I do. Seeking professional help is not an option for me, and
neither is getting help from a trusted adult. Even if either were an option, I’m
much, much, much to timid to ask for help...I don't think I even deserve to have
people waste there time on me to help me anyway.

TheTeenGirl answered Tuesday February 15 2005, 5:06 am: Go look in your mirror and list one thing you hate about yourself, say it out loud why you hate it, say it aloud to yourself. Then, think of if you had a best friend that looked like you, and look at yourself, and try to pretend going up to your identical best friend and complimenting them. "I love your hair, the best thing about it is its color, its length, and how beautiful it is dry." "I love your teeth, its like no matter when you don't brush them, they always are white, and they may be a little crooked and out of shape, but they would still look great with braces." Then, about your personality, if you had a best friend just like you, would you appreciate the way she treats you? Would she be there for you? Is she rude, is she judgemntal? You just need to get to the bottom of why you dislike yourself so much. Every morning, try complimenting yourself, even when you just wake up. Heck even if you don't mean it, just say "you look sexy." And when you walk away and think "yeah right" just say, "Oh thank you mind! I just love those thoughts, but I am sexy, and you can't do anything about it" just try it. (The key to being comfortable through life, and not being afraid, and not being ashamed of things is if you are full of confidence in yourself.)

No one should feel that way about themselves. You really need help, Talk to someone. There are people who have it worse then you, just always think of that. Keep Your Chin Up!

XlovelyladyO25 answered Monday January 31 2005, 5:10 pm: you shouldnt hate yourself, a lot of people feel down on themselves, i feel the same way you feel about yourself sometimes, but then i think about my friends and what they would say to me, and all the nice things people say. try to think of the good things, not the bad things.

l0stiNth0uGht020 answered Monday January 31 2005, 4:46 pm: With that attitude, theres not much anyone can do for you anyway. First, figure out if you're just doing this for attention, or if you really do have a problem. If you really do have a problem, I would say either get help, or if you are "much too timid to ask for help," then I would say just suck it up and move on with your life. Sorry if that was a bit harsh.. [ l0stiNth0uGht020's advice column | Ask l0stiNth0uGht020 A Question ]
c_assi_e_x_12 answered Monday January 31 2005, 3:32 pm: I know that deep down you want help. Your just way too afraid to ask. What you need is to let all your emotions out because if you keep all of this in you won't have good mental health. Maybe you can tell one of your close friends all of your troubles and maybe she/he can help you talk to an adult. It's always good to have a friend by your side. Don't ever think that those out there who are meant to help you are wasting their time on you. That's what they'e there for. Please talk to someone because if you don't sooner or later you will regret it. Things aren't as bad as they seem!!!
MissEmmyBoo answered Monday January 31 2005, 12:45 am: If you really don't want any damn help, then why on Earth did you come to Advicenators? I think that when people say things like this about themselves that they just want some attention, not to be mean, but from my own experience I believe it's true. And looks aren't everything, don't be soo materialistic...and I bet you do have an awesome personality, you just need to learn how to share it! Live life to the fullest!
*Cheer up my friend, it isn't as bad as it may seem!* :)

wantinganswers112 answered Sunday January 30 2005, 10:15 pm: You might not think that you deserve people's help, but you want it, because you are asking. Change yourself to fit your standards. Stand in front of a mirror and look at the things you say you hate. Don't like your hair? Change the color, style texture, look, go to a salon or something. Make it something you like. Do new things if you think that you suck at everything that you do now, (which I'm sure you don't) Find something simple, a sport or music that you can dedicate your time to.

Solaris answered Sunday January 30 2005, 7:51 pm: Change yourself to something you like. Why do you hate yourself? Why waste your time hating yourself, when you can use that time to improve yourself. Complaining wont make you happy. Stop whining and do something about it. Fix what is wrong. Dont say you cant because its hard. Thats bullshit. Step up and take charge. No one is going to fix your problems except you. [ Solaris's advice column | Ask Solaris A Question ]
Drama_Secretary answered Sunday January 30 2005, 7:44 pm: I am sure there is one thing about you that you like. You can't hate everything. Try sitting down with a piece of paper and think of things people have told you that they like about you. And you are worth something. By the way, you are making great progress by at least asking on here. As you can see, people do care about your story. [ Drama_Secretary's advice column | Ask Drama_Secretary A Question ]

Teza answered Sunday January 30 2005, 7:09 pm: Why do you hate everything about yourself? God put you on earth for a reason just like everyone else. Don't always think that everything is your fault because it's not and just try to go out with ur friends like the mall or something .. if you don't want to talk to anybody then maybe you culd start a journal or a diary and write your feelings down.

icey0990 answered Sunday January 30 2005, 7:04 pm: Aw, thats not true! Everyone is beautiful in their own way ..and everyone has a purpose! You cant get down on yourself like that! Try doing something to keep your mind occupied..maybe you'll feel good about yourself if you join a sport,club,gym, etc. I think thats the next best thing if your not willing to reach out for help from a professional or doctor.Take a short trip to someone to get away! Learn to like what God gave you..nobody is perfect!
