I dont know what to do, i just have no self confidence. I always fear the worst and am paranoid that people think bad of me. I'm not crazy or anything i just struggle to feel comfortable with what i look like and who i am. I really want to be someone who can jujst say to herself "your so preatty" but i cant. This is the reason i can never publically speak to people adn dont like taking photos. And when i do take one i just am so horified of how i look and delete it straight away. What should i do?
The thing is, if you don't love yourself how can you expect others to like you?
Try and complete something challenging once a day. For example, if you're shy about speaking to your neighbours, casually say hi when in passing.
Also, getting facebook helps. If you already have facebook, then maybe join groups where you can interact more.
Complimenting people is a big must. If you compliment them on something, they'll appriciate it and wont forget it. If you do it enough, they'll see you as a friend, and start complimenting/talking to you, and you'll feel confident.
Face it, theres always someone worse off than you. improve on anythign you like about yourself. One day, challenge yourself to walk down the street wearing something different-like a bright pair of trousers. People will accept you for who you are, and you'll have confidence.

I know when i was in highschool,. (3 years ago) I was always self contious about what people would say if i wore this or that,. To this day i still think that. All you have to do is start beleiving that you are a purely beautiful person,. I will admit it's not easy it is a big struggle,. and some days will be HELL and you will feel like a big fat fugly,. But Everyone has those days even me,. Once you start becoming comfortable with who you are and what you have to offer,.. ( Which is a lot!! Don't even give me that but i have nothing girllie:P Because even though i don't know you,. And i've never seen you,. I Believe you have soooo muuchh to give) after that you will start growing as a person as well as an individual and you will start to accept your self,. and with that comes self confidence.
