thanks ...

I was actually really ugly as a teenager. I had bad skin and was fat. and I got bullied a lot. was a horrible time and I got anxiety since. but I lost all the weight before I was 16 and I thought I look good now. I am 29 now. and I have been thinking my appearance was okay ever since. but still touchy with that issue. and my mother of course knows. right now in moderate-severe depression. so not a good time to discuss my misconceptions about that.
people just tell me these kind of things and insist they were doing me a favor because I had to face reality. why do they do that?- it's so sadistic.
