💔I need to stop living a lie... after recent events, (and really I have been thinking about this for a long time by now), I wanted to post this because I want to start accepting myself more. I have severe issues with self-confidence that is sadly very tied to how I look physically and me never feeling like I am good enough, pretty enough etc... so I guess editing pictures and "hiding" behind them has sort of felt easier! But I think it's time to admit that I'm really not a pretty person at all. I wish I was, but who doesn't? I have bad skin and an eye that looks a bit weird on pictures sometimes and my face is too big/wide, and my mouth is narrow and wide too...So I edit it to look a bit more decent! But this has made me realize people will not like me for who I am in real life. They will like the polished imagination I made up, and that will lead me nowhere. How will I know who actually likes me then?So, here you go: unpolished, real Josephine. Zits and all. I hope trying to accept that I will never be a beauty is achieveable sometime in the future at least... I will probably keep editing my pictures for a while, but try doing it less and less might be a reachable long-term goal I think. I will try to accept myself, I will fight to accept myself💔
