How should I deal with low self esteem?

Lately my self esteem has gone down so much. It’s mostly just in looks. Sometimes I’ll have those days where I just feel so ugly and not pretty enough. I have this problem where I compare myself to other girls too much. To me, my face is really big and looks round at times and then I’ll look at other girls who I think have the right looking face shape and wish I had that. I’ll try a different hairstyle and think my face looks too big and fat for it. And I feel that my smile is ugly too. I’ll look at all these other girls who look pretty no matter what they do and think they look perfect and wished I looked like that. I have a suckish life right now too on top of that so that makes things even more worse for me. I usually don’t feel this bad about myself. Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with low self confidence? Anything would help

I have that too, but not as bad as I used to. I try to surround myself with positive people and it helps a lot. You have to remember that a lot of the population doesn’t look like the actors and super models you see. If you go to a store and look around most of the women don’t look anything like what the media and everyone thinks is beautiful. The sad thing is you don’t pay attention to that, you pay attention to the handful of women who do fit that profile. And you think OMG I wish I looked like that, she doesn’t know how lucky she is. Go ahead and take a paper and a pen to the store, walk around and everytime you see a woman mark whether she is just average or what you see as really hot. I bet that you will find there is a big number difference and the average woman is going to win! Another thing to remember is unless the attractive ones are really stuck on themselves and think they are all that, most women especially see their flaws and nothing else. So even they don’t like the way they look. A word of advice Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and personality really shines though. A beautiful girl can turn ugly with an ugly personality, and an average woman can become the most attractive one with a great personality. I think from looking at your photo you are beautiful and don’t ever forget that!

Answer #2

people say that everyone focusses on their looks and every little detail is noticed but the truth is is that other people don’t notice a lot, or even at all. don’t be let down by yourself, I feel the same way, but recently my acne has been decreasing and it feels great. but since that has happened, my gpa ended up in the hospital, pretty bad shape, and my dog has had some shoulder or hip problems and that made me realize what I should care about the most. don’t get me wrong, I would love to look better and have a happy and healthy family for them and myself and every but if I HAD to choose, I would choose to have acne big nose, no tan, no white teeth, annoying hair, etc and have a happy and healthy family
