Ugh, this is so dumb considering there's so much going on in the world but I just want someone to tell me how to love myself .I mean , I don't necessarily hate myself, but I know for a fact that I'm far from loving it. I dislike everything about it. And I've been rather insecure lately about my body. I hate how my hips are wide , how my upper body is smaller, how I used to be nothing but bones. I hate that I don't feel the bones in my arms. I don't like that I have a supposedly nice rear .I hate my stomach for not being flat. I hate it all. And I don't think it's gonna get better unless I get worse if you get what I mean :/
ok so dude
1.) shut up with the negative talk
its not going to get better if you talk to yourself like that so stop
2.) get a journal or diary or whatever you can write on and write at least 5 good things you have experienced on that day even if its nothing, like come one dude t h i n k. im sure theres going to be some.
3.)Talk to someone. it doesn’t have to be someone from your family (it gets annoying when they tell like literally everyone
) but maybe your close friend/s or someone you trust.
4.) Just know that no one and I mean n o o n e is perfect. There is definitely something that makes you unique, maybe a talent, or a quirk on your body, but just know that its better to be unique than to strive to be something that is basically impossible.
5.) Yeah there might be models, celebrities and even regular people who look all slim and nice, but know that you can always make a change, like working out, having a healthy diet and getting good sleep. Those are what contributes to being fit, but its not about the looks, ok? its about you being you and how you are as a person. No one (at least someone in the right mind) likes those pretty girls with massive attitudes in cliché movies and you dont need to be them. In fact, many people would rather have a good friend and someone who is kind and loyal and im sure your friends love you for who you are and not what you are (if that makes sense)
So um I hope this helps and I know im not one to talk because ive gone through e x a c t l y what you said you’re going through, and I know I might be a hypocrite when I say these but I guess its kind of a reminder to me too
So yeah thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
