Fighting my insecurities is an everyday struggle

Fighting my insecurities is an everyday struggle. I am constantly doubting myself and my appearance, but I’m not really sure what would satisfy me in the end. I mean even if my appearance met my criteria of perfect, would I really be happy or more confident then? I’m not quite sure that’d be a yes. It’s something I’m really trying to work on. I guess having an idea ingrained in your head growing up really sticks with you.

I agree, I feel you, and I understand. I struggle with these things too...

I love myself, I know that is true. And yet for some reason I feel a need sometimes for positive feedback about my appearance/ abilties/ intelligence etc, from other people... As if their opinions are more valuable than my own feelings and instincts? Or because they witness these things in me, it proves some consensual reality?

Well, I think that you are beautiful, and thoughtful, and brave for sharing your feelings here! Thank you for being real!
