Nothing feels right anymore


Question Posted Wednesday March 15 2006, 10:24 pm

Everytime I look in the mirror I feel horrible I mean people tell me I'm beautiful or w/e but I just don't see it and I really swear I CANNOT SEE IT. Then, my best friends I've like blocked them from my emotions and my thoughts because I feel like their fake liars...it just feels everythings going to crumble and I wanna cry for no reason. Is this something teens go through or do I need to talk to someone?

hello! well what you are goin through does happen to alot of people. honestly...everybody has looked in the mirror at one time (including beyonce) and thought they were ugly and thought that everyone around them lied and said they were pretty...this happens! everyone becomes insecure,.,but some people take it to levels that can get out of control.most people who are feeling that insecure are people who try and be someone that they are not. like if a punk rock girl tries to be "preppy" shes going to feel very insecure because it just isnt her,,,always be yourself and remember that everyone truly is beautiful and everyone has someone else out there that thinks they are beautiful! if you have both your legs and arms and you have no disfigurement or anything...than you should be so lucky! theres people worse off than you! dont be concieted but also dont be insecure! love yourself and the way you look and i promise youll be fine! yes you should see someone...it will help and the insecurity can go deeper than we think

Basically all teenage girls go through that. But everyone handles it differently.

You sound like me. I never am able to believe my boyfriend when he tells me I look good, like I know he is not lying but I just cannot accept the fact that anyone thinks I look good. I just feel like I am the ugliest person in the world...even though I know that is not true, I still feel like it.

I think a good way to handle this is to try and just learn to accept what they are saying, I mean this is such a common thing teenagers go throught, and it is sometimes hard to believe that you actually look good. But I am sure you are really pretty, and you just cannot accept that.

One thing that I try and do, is just look at myself in the mirror and try and find my best quality. I know you probably think you do not have any, but you do. I mean I am really insecure but I can still look in the mirror and find at least one thing I like about myself. It took at while for me to find something, but I did. So try that, and slowly work your way from one thing to two things to three things etc...

Really it does work, because I can totally relate to you, and I am still going through those feelings now, but by looking in the mirror and trying to find my good qualities, it has given me a little more self esteem, and sometimes I actually feel a little good about myself.

I really hope everything works out for you..

dont call your self ugly cause your not and if youyr friend upset you then basically there no true friends no one is ugly we are all the same no matter what people think and calling your self ugly isnt gonna change anything it's not always about looks anywais people love you for who you are for the eprson that is inside you not the way you look you cant hate some one cause of thier looks so dont worry so much and if they call you ugly just tell them to stop and look at thier selves and think about what there saying and move on to new friends that will love and care and trust u for the person you are deep inside not some one your on the outside well i hopw i helped

Yes..a lot of teens go through that. You can speak to someone if it makes you feel better. Or maybe write all of your emotions/thoughts into a journal or something. Maybe write poetry? But everyone's beautiful in their own way. You just don't realize it. There's probably some person that is jealous of you because you have something that they don't.
