    I usually prance around like a hot to trot little donkey and then I see a picture and realize I'm actually just the donkey. C'es la vie. *trots away wiggling my donkey tail*

    Not sure why, but this made me smile.

    Cuz who can't smile at a damn donkey.

    Meh. I feel kinda fat and old today.
    Luckily I have no one I need to impress, so there is that.

    I used to think and speak very negatively about myself. But, a friend did an intervention. She sort of gave me lessons and instructions on not doing that, taking compliments, and compiling a list of positives to counteract it. I'm lucky to have had some good friends. But, actually I realize that you have to see yourself as having value. That's what's actually most important. Though it's still good if it's possible to stop distorted thinking. I just wanted to say this last thing on this particular topic/issue. It's not advice to anyone, just myself.

    I just hang out with extremely ugly people.

    By comparison, I look like a movie star.

    Somehow it works.

    Yep. I avoid looking at photos or reflections of myself whenever i can. Getting compliments puts me on guard too. Losing weight might help but not much.

    low self esteem/self worth/self image coupled with an overactive mind means on the rare occasion i am given a compliment i always question the motivation behind it; even amidst the knowledge that doing that is a result of LSE. I'm sure many others are in the same boat.

    We all seem to want to rebel against societal norms regarding what is good/is not good and how we see ourselves, but we are just as quick to forget that when making judgement of others.

    If you get a compliment from your significant other just not and whatever you do don't suggest they need therapy, glasses, or better taste in men lol.

    I definitely have days where I just feel "blah" about everything, from the way clothing fits, to how my make-up is etc. It comes & goes for me. I try not to tear myself apart the way I used to years ago, I've certainly gotten better with it & just accepting myself how I am. But for sure, I have good & bad days.

    I think we all have those days.
    It's my job to be fit and confident - does that mean I always feel confident in how I look? No!

    I have off days the same as everyone else.

    What matters is being kind to yourself and realising that you're the most perfect version of you out there!

    In my heart, I know I am not an ugly person. However, my brain goes through many of my faults on a daily basis. It is the small things that add up like seeing my large pores in the mirror, noticing new wrinkles, catching myself in a window and seeing my stomach protrude, having to make sure I have something covering my upper arms at all times, or trying to fit into clothes from a year ago. While none of those things are a big deal in reality, they can certainly wreak havoc on my confidence.

    It depends. If I do my hair and makeup, and don't eat much (so I'm not bloated) I feel good. But most days I feel awful about myself.

    It really is a battle to combat those negative thoughts in our head. It is always easier to believe the negative than the positive about ourselves.

    I could've written this myself. I'm my absolute worst critic.
