i often feel im very different and a misfit ,in a friends words. im often told im pretty and in great shape, however, i feel like the same insecure person ive always been! im approached by men for my looks, but i cant see why. i see things and myself as such an oddball. i chose to use a username someone special in my lfe gave me, and im trying very hard to believe the first part of that name...I know the pain part fits me perfectly!!!!

    The mental side is just as big as the physical. We all struggle with it at some point. You might talk to someone.. they may be able to help you look at yourself in a different light.

    Hey girl, as you know I feel the same way as you do and I pray that someday we can get over these feelings about ourself I too have people tell me that I am beautiful and look great but I also have a very hard time believing what they say! Glad you are on here and hope that we can help to support each other and start feeling better about ourselves!!
