Does anyone have days in a row where they get depressed over their appearance ? I will just stand in the mirror and obsesses about something and it gets me so depressed.

I think it's normal with anxiety to obsess over anything and everything but especially as women we are our worst critics!! Try not to worry too much .. We are all unique and beautiful

hi there you are very beautiful Alan xx

hi Katie how can you get depressed with your gorgeous looks, if i had your good looks i'd be a very happy person, your a gorgeous looking woman, if you saw a picture of me then you would be depressed take care your friend Alan xx

I have the same problem. I get so mad at myself for letting myself go. The depression/anxiety I have has made it hard to do the things that I need to do to take care of myself properly. From looking at your profile picture I see a beautiful woman. Try looking at all of you not just a little flaw and see if that helps you. :-)

Katie, i think ppl with anxiety depression obsess over how they look. IM going through a stage where im obsessed with fabric softner lol i have 14 diff ones and i make sure my clothes have not 1 crease in them. I wear bright clothes, well bright yellow trainers, socks n tshirt so im noticed lol makes me feel good. As long as look u good and smell great. Ever been in a shop and someone smells really good? So go put a wash on with plenty softner 😋 chin up Hun, u look fine x
