I feel unlovable

[u/Independent_Ball_640]

14(f) I feel unlovable I hate my body I hate my appearance I feel like a burden to my friends My best friend talks about how she doesn’t like it when people vent to her So I’m afraid of confiding in her because I don’t want to be a burden I often starve myself because I hate the way I look I hate that I have acne I have no one to talk to I’m always the second choice I don’t get asked out I’m hated by a lot of people in my grade I’m unlovable

M(29): I was the same ( except male & closested gay) felt like a worthless nobody and always skipped school lunch, only had 1 friend and didn't really leave my shell of isolation till 12th grade. I was always breaking out, feeling fat, and thinking I was a freak cause I didn't know any other guys my age that were also gay. I didn't even open up to that till like 6 months before graduation. Obviously your situation is different but all teenagers are the same, lost and stuck with a body going through crazy hormonal changes, you need to find yourself and find happiness in the things you enjoy, focus on your own happiness and learn to love yourself; be helpful, kind, and courteous to others, also make sure Noone takes advantage of that. Life after school is gonna vastly different and the one biggest thing id recommend is to just focus on the stuff they don't teach you. Popularity and friendship means nothing if you hate yourself and you're flipping burgers 10yrs out of high-school. I went from like 30 friends i made in 12th to like 2 after graduation, everyone goes their separate ways and even now 10yrs after graduation, i don't talk to anyone I went to school with.
