God I hate my body. And I hear such nice things from other people, and for a second I believe it. But it’s just so hard to even look in the mirror. How can I love myself more?

      Sometime it can be hard to see your own beauty. I'm sorry you're struggling with it. Every body has a unique form of beauty and it just takes a little bit of looking to find it. Find one thing you like about your body, even if it's as small as your eyelashes or fingernails, and try to focus on that for now. Learning to be comfortable in your own body is a hard process with all the beauty standards in our society, but you can do it💕

      One time someone told me what you see in yourself is what you display outwardly. You don’t have to be “beautiful” because beautiful is subjective, you already are, you just have to see it. Beauty is in all types of things like in confidence or in kindness. You can try doing things that make you feel beautiful like putting on make up. Do things that make you feel confident so you can feel proud of your body and all that it’s done for you. Someone will love you one day for all that you are

      If they see you as beautiful, it should only be you and not only your body

      @chimp the way my body looks is important because I want to be beautiful. I want other people to be able to look at me and think “wow she’s beautiful”. I want people to like me. But mostly I just want to be beautiful for myself :(

      Remember that the issue is the fixation on your body image itself, rather than hating your body

      Why is the way your body looks important?

      What I've taught myself over yrs was that to not care ab others compliments but learn to accept them first which I see you do, but rather acknowledge instead of having others to tell you what you are when you should know you're beautiful! Hope this helps💜

      I wish that I could tell you. Try looking in the mirror.. hugging yourself and telling yourself out loud..”I love you”.
