I often think I'm an ugly and disgusting person, I was wondering if you had any advice to make all of my thoughts on how I'm ugly go away? They just won't stop..... Your blog is so sweet and I was hoping maybe you could help me. Thanks for running this blog, - Another Stranger
Hey guess what? I’ve struggled with similar thoughts. And recently. I felt a lot of self loathing and lack of confidence.
The way I treat myself? I neglect myself. I don’t do nice things for myself. I don’t pay attention to my needs. I always put others before myself, to my own detriment.
What other message would my psyche receive other than “I hate myself”?!?!
So… I started taking care of myself: exercising, relaxing, eating right, sleeping. And, ya know what?
You are beautiful and so worthy of your own self adoration and attention.
