Writing can be so cathartic. Having someone close enough to share it with is such a release to however. Like releasing a poison that is festering inside.

Such a hard thing to live with. You can't run away from yourself. I never thought of this for myself just figured I have been realistic about my appearance. Would be nice to think it was BDD instead lol. NOT convinced myself.

Fun isn't it!!! Anything specific? I know the feeling!

I'm athiest and lover of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

You can't base getting a girl on how many friends you have. Wow talking about putting all men/woman into a narrow generalization. Maybe a club is not the best place for you. If you are shy I'ld say not. What hobbies do you have? Maybe there are clubs you can get involved in with others of...

You've made it to your senior year in college so congrats on that!! You're mother sounds extremely over protective. Have you talked with her about your feelings? You don't have to bash her she surely loves you but your are 21 years old she needs to realize you are an adult. Do you work...

I completely understand where you are coming from. I feel the same way (ugliest person in the room feeling). While people think they are being nice and I believe they are truly trying to help. . . it doesn't. Looks do matter in our world. Does being good looking make someone a good person...

wow I pop in after months because I'm in the midst of a crash and get to read this on my post. Not that Luck is wrong about how I look but yikes. I'm already married so finding someone is not the issue it's my own body image and comments i get from others. I just can't accept looking so . ...

So true when you only hear the negative it's hard to feel good about yourself or exhibit solid self confidence. People can say all they want that looks don't matter yada yada but they do. That's just reality. As crazy as it sounds I've always wanted to do a anonymous survey of my looks to...

You're definately not alone in how you feel remember that!!! The feeling of worthlessness follows me too. For myself setting goals truly helps be it my education, job, working out etc. Having productive thoughts to busy my mind gives me a moment or two of calm. You're not alone...

I'm so so sorry to hear this. Words are of no use here. Time to lean on family and friends that you can trust for sure. Ugg is right keep on chugging one foot in front of the other.

I avoided meds for many years but decided to give them a try and sooo glad I did. Do I feel perfect now? NO But the has really moderated my moods. And I don't feel drugged up at all!! A bit sleepy for the first week or so but that passed as soon as my body adjusted. Be educated about...

Do you feel comfortable enough to be more specific as to some of your "ways" easier to give insight that way.

I would simply like to finally be able to accept who I am. I want the feeling of being an ugly troll and an outsider to go away!! So yes to be happy with who I am would be GREAT. Also to keep a good balance of work and free time. Variety is the spice of life I do not live to work. . ...

Man I wouldn't reccomend starting to rely on getting drunk to ease your social anxiety at ALL!! You will just be just masking an issue. I feel your pain however. I find it easier and more enjoyable to be in small group than "parties" where I'm not sure of how I fit. Maybe you're a person...

Have those feelings daily. I question myself every second. Why do I look different? Why do I feel like crying so much? Why are my interests and wants different? Why am I me? Are there others out there who will understand? Does anyone care? Why would anyone want anything to do with me...

Yes ma'am!! I hate the "crashes" of a depression thank goodness they don't last forever. Depression never leaves me but it's the "crashes" that try to break me. Have really "crashed" the last few weeks. Again glad there is a place like this to vent.

I definately feel your pain. Don't give up on school it will be the best thing you can do in the long run. I struggle with the same emotions everyday. Class is a good way to meet a nice gal with similar aspirations and goals as you too :) That's how I met my wife (she asked me out). Ok so...

would be nice to develop a small network of relatively close people with similar "issues".

Thanks for the OP clarification!!
