I Am My Own Worst Enemy

I Bring Myself Down.

I try to look past the imperfections, I really do try. I am so insecure, I got into a depression once because of it.

I look in the mirror once, I look pretty...Look back again, I look ugly.

It is a obsession too. I have to look in the mirror and check my hair, check my makeup, check how my stomach looks, check how many hairs are out of place, etc etc etc.

But every time I look in it, the more imperfections I find.

='(

I don't want to go back on this road.

    I feel this way too. I also ended up in depression because of it. And what I learned is despite what I think of myself, there are many people out there who sincerely care about me and noticed that I was not myself.



    I'm sure it's the same for you. People love you for your imperfections, not because they think you're perfect. Try and remember that and let yourself be loved. :)

    I don't know you. I've never met you. But right now, I love you. You're going to be great. Don't worry so much; I can guarantee you that people will agree with you when you think you look great far more often than they will when you think you look bad..
