The fact that I’ve started working at a gym this summer and the amount of times I’ve been hit on by members/my coworkers boosts my confidence sm. Yet I still hate what I see in the mirror 😀 It’s slowly taking over my mind and idk what to do because-

I’m going to be honest it sounds like you have a form of body dysmorphia. I’d be honest about how you feel with your boyfriend and even try therapy if possible.

My self esteem has never been this bad before ?? I also have a bf and he treats me super well but I’m at the point where I try to question his intentions sm times as if he already hasn’t reassured me enough. Idk what’s going on with me

Not everything with a - is ai. I was clearly trying to just continue what I was writing on my post. You sound like a boomer

I completely understand this, I’ve been going through it for years. The only thing that has started to help me is asking myself if I will really choose to believe the little voice in my head over other people, especially the person I love. I know that my thoughts lie to me sometimes, so I have to make a conscious choice to believe other people when they tell me I’m attractive. It’s incredibly hard at first cause you assume everyone is lying to you, but it really can help change your mentality

Thank you sm. I definitely just think my thoughts have been super negative lately, and the smallest thing can make me feel insecure, and I find it really hard to believe others when they compliment me. I’ll definitely give that a shot

Trust me I know how hard it is. I’ve been doing this for years and there’s still a small part of me that doesn’t believe other people. I never thought it would work, but now I find myself correcting my own thoughts subconsciously. “My brain is lying to me, but other people aren’t” is my go to mantra in those times
