Question - (23 April 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 23 April 2008)
A male United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have some serious issues, which my parents say are in my head but I cant seem to get rid of them. I do not like the way I look anymore, it never use to bother me but for over a year now it really gets me down. Sometimes I think I look good, but mostly I think I look awful, pale, ugly and just horrible. To make it worse I realised yesterday that I have one eyelid that hangs lower then the other, and now I cant stop looking and trying to tell myself its not that bad, but its a losing battle as always.

Its controlling my entire life and has done for over a year now, I dont know how much longer I can put up with feeling sad and upset about it... cant anyone offer any advice or help please?

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (23 April 2008):

You know you are being over critical. You know it is a problem that you are creating.

If you know this then the best thing to do is just give your self a kick up the arse and tell yourself you are being stupid.

There are so many bigger problems in the world than how you look. You have to realise that it is all in your head.

When you find yourself thinking sad things about your looks then give yourself a clip round the ear, put on a happy song and have a dance.

Good Luck!! xx
