So, the deal is.. I've always struggled with eating. And self-esteem.. and all that stuff.

Now.. I'm 5'2/5'3 and weigh 124.. Less than I ever have.. And I when I look into the mirror.. I look worse than I looked when I weighed 138. And the worst thing.. My collarbones are nowhere to be seen. Can they just sink in, or is it just my mind playing tricks on me?

I feel so terrible. I know I'm in the perfectly healthy weight range, but I feel sick, obese, I don't feel beautiful, and I don't enjoy even trying make up on anymore, because it feels pointless.. It can't make me any more beautiful, it will only emphasize my faults.

I'm sorry to come off with this self-pity.. But I just want to know if this is common?

Thanks for reading.

Holding one's head up and standing correctly, you may or may not see your collarbones, no bones should be prominent so you "notice" them above other things. But I imagine if you're "slumped" and shoulder's rounded and forward, that would make them less prominent.

Yes, you're a wonderful weight. I wouldn't worry about your weight too much at the moment, I'd work on your self esteem and seeing if you can't get back the feeling of being beautiful if you had that before; there is no "real" beauty, it's in the eye of the beholder and if you enjoy yourself inside you're going to enjoy how you look (outsides).

but well yah. sometimes collar bones dont show, depends on the shape and your posture. hey. men dont actually find them attractive. but yah dont worry u r a fablous figure.

Thanks to both of you.

I agree Perna, my self-esteem is really not in a good condition. Well, on some days it is, and on some days it's well under. I guess it also comes with age.

It could be just in your head. Sometimes I don't think I can see mine, and on 'thin days', I can.
