Hello seeker1950,

I'm very glad that medication has made you feel better when my doctor diagnosed me with depression she prescribed me with an antidepressant but it hasn't been as helpful as my emotions are still very unstable. I feel okay some days but I have a lot of slips where I feel like I can't get up and do anything.

I have an appointment with a counsellor at the end of June and im really hoping they can help me change my way of thinking. I recently went through some old messages between me and an ex boyfriend and he said how my face could be extremely attractive or "meh" and that I'd be way jotter with my hair up. Since then I've had massive insecurities. After all the bullying I endured it felt awful to have someone who liked me to say those things. Although the guy im with now is amazing and calls me beautiful all the time I still feel obsessive about my looks and it makes me feel vain after being made to feel invisible and ugly for so long I crave validation from people now.

I feel us introverts can be seen as easy targets because we are shy. I don't trust many people so I limit my friends to a few people too. I am 20 years old and at university and I now have more friends than ever but I still feel so lonely in my mind.

Kind regards,

Love ToffeeBomb
