Not sure how this works.

I'm lonely, boring and ugly it's not a good compilation. Been like this my whole life, I was 7 when I tried to hang myself with my baby blanket.

I can keep busy enough to not be depressed, but it's the down time that kills me.

I don't have friends, legitamittly :( can't talk to my family about mental problems. Everytime I reach out for help my hand is pushed away.

Things never get better, they just get forgotten about for a while.

I have social anxiety really bad, which makes it hard to do anything. My job closed down 3 weeks ago. The one friend I had died in March. Now I have downtime to work on myself, and I honestly don't like myself.

This is hard and it's harder to find help :(

good evening. First of all, you're not ugly. Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality, even if it is your own opinion. No one is ugly because we're all created in God's image and only good things comes from God. You don't have to let society, Hollywood, the media or people in general including your own self determine what is considered ugly. That is just negative thinking and the good news is that you can change the way you think with some work. When you learn how to change your thoughts, your outlook on life and how you see yourself will change too...😊

This has been the most difficult time with this pandemic stuff but there is a good side for some. More and more people can relate to how you feel. So many have been isolated at home this year. It sucks. It's boring. My heart aches to think a child did not want to live but I am so grateful that child did and has grown to be who you are now. Do you take any medication for your anxiety? Have you considered counseling? I know I can find many not so great things about myself but I have to choose to find what is good and focus on that. I have put up notes to myself to say out loud. I am beautiful in the eyes of God. I am smart. I actually use to write these things down until they naturally came to me as thoughts or statements. Have you thought about trying it? No one is ugly. Only behavior is ugly.

Not what you're looking for?
