Honestly, I just hate myself

[mariraven]

I look in the mirror, i hate my image. I hate my hair, my weight, my acne, etc. I look at my life, and i just hate it here. I don’t have any friends anymore, my parents don’t allow me to enjoy life as a teen. I’m not allowed to go out and have fun. I can’t do anything, and all my teenage years have gone to waste. There’s nothing here to be happy about. And i hate everything that comes with being who i am. What’s even the point of living. This isn’t worth it.

Please don't hate yourself. Life sometimes feels like it is harder than it should be. Look online for hair styles you may like, play with your hair and try new things. If your parents are not allowing you to go out, find something that YOU enjoy to do by yourself. I recently started jump roping and lost 15 lbs just learning tricks. It kept me focused on the rope and not all the other things around me. You have so much to offer yourself and others

Life gives you an opportunity to find your purpose. There’s a reason you are alive. You have a beautiful soul and that will be w you throughout your journey. Our physical appearance changes over time but not your soul. Pls give yourself a chance to shine and you will cherish life itself.

Having a daily routine and infusing some outdoor time without electronics, appreciating nature, some quiet time is good for the mind, body, and soul.

I’ve been in this place before. I’h hear the messages ‘love yourself’ and be ‘body positive’ but really the first step is neutrality. I had major body image problems and found that looking at myself in the mirror and saying ‘I have [insert image concern here] and that’s ok’ was the baby steps I needed to get out of that dark place. It is possible, and it takes time, but you can get to a place where the intense hatred goes away. I promise.
