sadness
My problem is not depression. I have never been diagnosed with anything, and there is nothing "the matter" with me. My only problem is that I feel unhappy for 90% of my waking life. I am nearly 23 and I often feel ugly and unattractive, despite what boyfriends have said to the contrary. I feel that I will never have a decent partner, a loving man who i will be able to have children with. So far, all the men I have dated have just been out for what they can get. It is a side issue, but I wonder whether there are any MEN who get angry at the way a lot of men treat women. There must be some out there, I'm not saying all you guys are a**holes.
But I digress......
Basically, I just wonder if any of you out there have gone through or are going through the same thing. Share your thoughts. Thank you.

Hm, I'd call that depression, personally.
And as a guy, I'd agree that the way a lot of men treat women is pretty awful. On the other hand, there are also a lot of women who's behavior is equally awful, just in a different way.
You can either be ignorant of problems like these in society (which you clearly aren't), you can be aware of the problems, or you can be aware of the problems and sad and upset about them as well. So since you're unhappy 90% of the time, I'd definitely call that depression.

Hi
I have totally been where you are, and it's not fun!!
You say you're not depressed, but if you are unhappy 90% of the time, then what would you call it?
I hope I don't sound insenstive when I say this, because I don't mean to. I say this because this was me a few years back.
If you don't love yourself, then how do you expect anyone else to love you? If you let guys use you for whatever it is that they want, then they will continue to do so.
You need to start respecting yourself. Take a self-confidence course, see a therapist, anything that will give you a better outlook on life.
I know what it's like to hate the way you look. I was so down about myself at one point that I wouldn't leave my house...please don't get to that point.
It's ok to admit you need help...mental health is just as important as physical health, if not more.
Confidence is such a HUGE boost to ones character. People will see this within you, and you will instantly become more attractive.
As for finding a decent guy...that's up to you. Set your standards higher, and love yourself enough to want someone who will treat you with the respect that you deserve.
Good luck, and take care.
