Me. I hate me.

[Kitty]

I look in the mirror and just burst into tears.
Why do i cry so much when i look in the mirror. It drives me insane.
It's not even that i have extreme low self confidence i just hate my self SOO MUCH it makes me feel physically sick every time i look at my self.

I'm not really sure what to suggest but you need to start doing some positive, self affirming thing.
You could start by saying something nice to yourself every time you look in the mirror, regardless whether you believe the things you say now if you say them often enough you will.
Also possibly doing some kind of chant thing every morning with the things you like about yourself there must be something even if it's just I have nice eyes or something.
And remember you're a beautiful person no matter what you think right now!

Well you tell me. What do you see when you look in the mirror? Specifically.

It's like i see blood as tears in my face...it's weird.
And i'm sooo overweight.. :| :( but i get confused because i'm classed as underweight and i weigh 112 for 5'8.
My eyes are huge and black bags underneath and my skin is pale and not nice :( <3 xxxxxxxxx

Katie, you are beautiful. You really are, although I know me saying this is not going to change how you feel.

Are you still seeing a councillor? You should talk to them about this.

I'm always here if you want to talk :)

:hug:

I go through the same thing as you day in and day out.
I know it's difficult for yourself to believe or accept it, but you really are beautiful no matter what you may think of yourself.

I know there's not really anything anyone can do or say that's going to make things better, but having people who experience or understand exactly what you're feeling does help. Feel free to PM whenever you need anyone. :)

Darling, you're gorgeous. I know you won't believe that, but try to. Because it's true. And you're a lovely person as well. Just keep trying to love yourself. You'll get there.

[Nevermore]

I know how you feel. Looking in that mirror is hell, but it's sort of like I subconsciously want to do it, because I want to become thinner, and if looking in that mirror is going to help that, then look in the mirror I shall. My suggestion is don't look in the mirror. Easier said then done ^_^ try just focusing on your hair and make up, or make your time focusing on somethign else. One thing that helps me is the phrase God made you in His image. He made you perfect and beutiful, because everything God makes is perfect and beutiful, even though as humans we are imperfect.
To be brutally honest your gorgeous and I'm jealous. You look extremely thin. I know you won't beleive what I'm saying, but I'm brutally honest, if I didn't beleive it, I just wouldn't post it. I love your big eyes, they are gorgeous!! Personally I think pale is more attractive then an orangy tan. So it's a good thing your tan. Black bags might be due to lack of sleep, try getting more rest. If that doesn't work cover up works wonders. Your gorgeous!! You shouldn't worry. Try listening positive things people have said to you in the past when you are downing yourself in your head. Think of it this way, everyone above thinks your gorgeous, so we must be right. Majority rules xp. You must know we are not lying if we are all saying your beutiful, and goregous.

Actually, I do.
But however deep an eating disorder is, you should still like yourself.:yes:

[Kitty]

[Alaph]
