How do I know what I look like?

[Cicero]

So sounds like a dumb question let me explain, so I believe without a doubt I have bodydismorphic disorder.

So when I woke up this morning it looked like I had a block looking face, my eyes and hair looked horrible. So when I took a nap after school I woke up 3 hours later, and I looked totally different. I looked good, and handsome. I usually feel like I have to gross of hair, to big of angelina jolie lips, and i look horrible. But theirs days where I feel honestly good looking, when nothing has even changed.

So I'm asking...
Do I look like I feel whenever I feel good about myself? Or do I look bad? This isn't a question about looks. I do not know how I look, like I said, this morning my perception of myself was ugly as fuck, but 10 hours later after a nap I felt like I looked good looking. Which one should I believe. When I feel good looking or when I feel ugly?

Well, think of it this way, if you wake up and tell yourself it's gonna be a great day, you feel confident etc., you'll look better to yourself. You see, how you see yourself in the mirror, isn't how other people see you. If you are feeling the least bit self concience, your brain will pick out the things on your face like for example a pimple, some dry toothpaste, and yellow teeth. However, to other people, these things might not be half as obvious. Just remember that you are you and no one can change that.

Grats. You're going through something that every teenager has, and will continue to go through. Want to look better? Change your attitude. Seriously, when you look in the mirror, whether you look nice or not, just say "I'm me and I don't give a fucking shit how I look. I feel good".
You're still young and going through crazy hormones and emotions. You're going to constantly see yourself differently than how others see you. Either take the advice mentioned before, or continue with this low self esteem you seem to have.

It's not all in your head. Confident people actually look better to other people, and I go through the same thing. I have a ton of faith in the fact that you are a stunner, so I'd say go with the good-looking one :)
