A female reader, AuntyEm United Kingdom +, writes (11 April 2010):

AuntyEm agony auntThis is such a tricky situation to answer, but I'd like to give it a go and it's not my intention to hurt your feelings or make you feel worse because I can tell from your words that you feel wretched and upset and afraid.

To me it seems you have built a wall around yourself. Maybe to shut out all the injustice and fear that you feel about how people have treated you. You have stated that people have bullied you and rejected you and believe me thats a shitty thing to cope with...no wonder you now have huge emotional walls surrounding you. The other problem seems that from inside your walls, you have and enemy attacking you...and that person is yourself.

You relayed a staggering list of faults that you have, i.e. you think you dont look right, you think your overweight, bad hair, low self esteem. I wonder if you ever give yourself a break from feeling this way?...its little wonder you feel so depressed.

You have stacked the odds so insurmountably against your favour, its enough to send you over the edge!!

When your faced with a situation where you feel there is no hope, sometimes its the smallest thing that can turn things around and when you cannot find the help you need from people around you, then you have to help yourself.

Have you ever read the serenity prayer?; part of it says:

'God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

Courage to change the things I can,

And wisdom to know the difference'

I guess my advice would be to try to work on the things you can change in yourself. Losing weight, getting a new haircut and so forth, might not change your life immediately but they are things you can do something about and they will give you confidence...and that could lead to other things.

Finding love and acceptance from others is more tricky and yep there are some seriously nasty people out there who can make anyone feel bad about themselves. Don't set yourself up for a fall and try not to dwell on the issue of love. Unfortunately we are bombarded with the idea that we can only be happy with a significant other and YES it's great if you find someone, but it all starts with yourself.You have to be the best you can be and its isnt all about image. The world is full of all kinds of people, some quite plain and ordinary, some with disabilities and some with mental health disorders, some with terrible lives but amongst them are a substantial number that have enjoyed loving and caring relationships.

Please watch this vid by Nick Vujicic, listen to what he says 'It's a lie to think your not good enough, it's a lie to think your not worth anything'

It is our own responsibility to work on our own happiness. Not all happiness comes from relationships and not all happiness comes from looking a certain way. Focus and work with what you've got to build your confidence, positive thinking goes a very long way and can bring about small victories that can make a huge difference.

You are never alone when you have yourself and only by loving yourself can you be truly worthy of loving others.

Best of luck to you and I hope you find some peace.
