That is my belief and what I have observed on my own. I also know that there have been times that I've felt like total depressed crap and KNEW without a doubt I looked horrible. Then had hubby compliment me and got hit on when we went out. So despite how I felt and what I knew I truly couldn't have looked the way I thought I did.

I really think that it's a way for depression to continue it's cycle. We get depressed, think we are unattractive, feel even worse about ourselves, get more depressed, feel worse ad nauseam.
