 Hi,
Honestly I think everyone goes through a phase like this, I know I did, but somehow I always found a way to pick myself back up.
Very recently I have been very negative and down on myself, feeling like the whole world was pressing down on my shoulders. An illness had affected one of my family memebers and nothing seemed to be going right anymore, I lost contact with all my friends etc...
But I have passions and career ambitions that really pick me up and help me focus on whats important. Life is actually beautiful and so is everything in it.
You can not call yourself ugly! Who, exactly who, can decide whether you look ugly? Nobody! Take life a day at a time, enjoy life, it has so much to give.
There must be something you are interested in? Clothes, animals, sport? Anything that you can become involved in and feel happy within yourself again. It's not about being perfect, life is about change, so you can look back and be like that was how I was then and look how much I have blossomed now. It happens to everyone, chin up!

first of all let me tell you when i was younger someone told me i was ugly. i´m a lady by the way and i thouht all those words were true and people would look at me and maybe i´d think they don´t see me pretty so i´m not pretty. then one day i grew up and as i grew i becamee very pretty i´m latin and i´m some asian so my hair grew into these little waves and my figure thinned and my skin tanned and shinned and people started to notiice a different me.so people started to tell me i was beautiful and men would come to my parents home and make fake promises all the time and lose hope and faith and just wouldn´t try without really knowing me i would pick losers all the time because i didn´t think i was good enough and they all took advantage of me. So just tell me one thing are u gonna let that happen to you. Are you gonnna make a loser a star. when you figure that out let me know because sometimes you gotta just not look in the mirror but look around you and then compare yourself to them. think about how different you are and what you do and what the rest of the world does. What sets me apart is that i´m not a drunk i don´t smoke and i´m not afraid to tell a complete stranger my story not because i´feel unnoticed but because i want someone to remmber me for my inner beauty not just for what they see physically but me and when maybe one day they´ll remember once meeting this amazing person so think about that and then tell me what you see beauty as because it´s not all about confidence
