Yay new couch! Morning, couchies! So I don't know how to respond to a friend on facebook. She'd changed her profile pic to be a pic of some beautiful (on the outside) model or something, saying bad things about herself how she is ugly or something. Several of her friends me included commented that we see HER as beautiful, her smile lights up her face, she's warm and caring and seriously all I see when I look at her is a beautiful woman. She responded to us that she found it funny that only people who are married said those things (she is single/divorced) that it is about looks only. I feel so sad for her and I want to say something but I don't know what to say... especially since I too struggle with self-esteem issues and call myself fat and stupid all the time. Not as much as I used to before therapy, but I still do it too much. This self esteem thing, getting it back when it's been lost, is really hard huh...
