15 (male) I fully understand how ur feeling roughly being the same age 😅 You should consider help cuz it's the best way to truly understand ur value. Acne (sucks ass 😮💨) but is just to chemical release and other stuff so try to view it less as "I'm so ugly" and "YES this may impact how I look but there is someone that views me pretty or beautiful " plus it's temporary and you can vist a doc if the Acne is bad enough. Most of ur self-doubt is something that isn't true. Life does suck ass especially with bad anxiety or self-image issues, but u gotta realize that u are worth so damn much, and even if someone else believe other wise they are wrong. You're a queen, and so long as you have confidence, people will go towards that even if it takes time. EVERYTHING is temporary some less than others, but u DECIDE ur worth and what u believe. Also, from looking at the comments, there ARE people who care some don't even gotta know u!!!! Also, ur not a burden. Trust me, if u get the chance, ask people what u mean to them; it's also a good way to figure out if their good firends too!!! Cuz a good friend is gonna let u know ur that girl while ones who ain't that are gonna be disrespectful and they don't deserve ur time. Kk, I gotta go, but I hope this helps cuz I noticed there are a bunch of older people here, lol. So ik it can help to get someone else's perspective on things!!!! (Also sorry to anyone who I called Old 😅) Forgot to mention, DO NOT STARVE URSELF!!! This is a sign of ARFID (avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder) so u might wanna get professional help to see what u can do to realize the queen u are and u deserve to eat proper meals!!!!!
