Sometimes I don’t feel pretty….

Every girl talks about how they both feel sometimes. What if you just don’t feel pretty ever? What if you always just feel like an ugly fat blob? Yeah that’s me. 95% of the time I feel like a complete ugly bitch. I don’t know how to change that though. I don’t ever talk bad about myself. I know I’m not the prettiest girl ever. I don’t know how to feel.

2024/6/2 Edited to

Feeling pretty is something many women grapple with, often resulting in negative self-perception. Factors such as societal standards, media portrayal of beauty, and personal experiences can contribute to these feelings. It's important to understand that everyone has their insecurities, and open discussions about them can foster a supportive community. Building self-confidence is a gradual process. Start by practicing self-compassion; treat yourself as you would a friend, and recognize that beauty is diverse and subjective. Engage in activities that boost your mood, whether it's pursuing hobbies, exercising, or spending time with supportive friends. Additionally, consider seeking help from a therapist or counselor who can provide professional guidance. They can assist in addressing deep-rooted issues and help build a healthier self-image. Remember, it's okay to feel down sometimes, but it's essential to take steps toward uplifting yourself and recognizing your worth beyond physical appearance.

growth doesn't always look pretty
