I notice you are a 19 year old female. At that age I would focus on things I didn't like about my appearance rather than my strengths. I think my self esteem was low sometimes. I don't know how you look but do you think some of your feelings about being ugly are overblown?

I am 55 now and do not look as good as I looked in my 20s but despite the fact that my looks are going downhill, I am more comfortable with the way I look! I look at some of my pictures in my 20s (especially the ones after I had lost some weight) and say, "I looked pretty good". I do not look that good anymore but am not as self conscious. So the good news is--with time, you can learn to accept yourself for who you are! It is one of the few benefits of aging.

Also, eating healthy, exercising and trying to find clothes that fit right (not to tight or loose) helps too. With time, I hope you learn self acceptance like I did.
