narcissistic.?
15/f.
I'm obsessed with myself..
like...not in a healthy way.
I used to VERY self conscious. But then...after losing weight and growing and stuff...I find myself to be okay looking.
And so I started to take pictures.
And then more and more pictures. Until I had a humongous library of pictures of me alone..
I can't stop. I don't know WHAT to do..I have SO many pictures of myself, and I take more and more and more.
Gah. Mirrors as well..jeez...I'm obsessed with them.
What do I do? O_O I want this to stop.

I agree with BitsandPieces ont his one. I think you stating that you weren't so confident before and you liking how you look now is a key fact in this all. You weren't use to the beauty and attention and weren't happy with how you looked, and now since you are you are taking full advantage of it all. I take alot of pictures aswell, but i do for how i look at the moment. Like "oh my gosh my makeup looks so pretty right now, let me take a picture of it," or "wow...look how fit and lean i look today..lets take a full body shot instead of just a 'top half' shot".
You want varification that your not just dreaming or percieving youself a certain way... that you actually are gorgeous right now and are loving yourself as you should be. I think maybe you should focus your photographing into a healthier form of capturing beauty...
take a picture of the sunset, a flower, a field of daisy's, or the rain drizzling down you r window on a rainy day. You can even include yourself in them sometimes...like take a picture of you laying in a field surrounded by flowers, on a cliff with the ocean behind you, things that you can share with other people that could help them feel better after a bad day. I do this. Photography is an amazing and gratifying hobby. Sometimes someone is like wow... this picture makes me feel so good, or calm or even beautiful(if i take one of someone).
Spread the love... you know your own beauty so why not help people feel happy and bautiful too. We need more people like this in the world.

Are you afraid that you will change again? Maybe all this documentation..the proof of pictures is your way of validating that you really look this way. When are you going to accept it internally? Of course, all beauty is fleeting or at least changing...nothing stays the same. So my advice is two-part. Enjoy who you are today and enjoy who you are today. Get it? You lost weight and deserve to self-appreciate, but remember that who you are in this moment is more than what you see in the photos. You are worthy and wonderful at any weight.
