I Thought I Was Ugly

What’s funny is I don’t worry about this anymore. I still get insecure about my body or want to change it but it’s not in this weird disordered way. In other words I KNOW I AM LOVABLE and valuable and worthy of connection regardless. Funnily enough this insecurity just moved to other things like my grades and my self care practice. It’s much healthier but I do notice that it’s more of an overall OCD tendency and to conflate safety and lovability with some type of preformance. It’s nice to look back on this when I feel stressed and overwhelmed to see how far I’ve come! I couldn’t even get out of the mirror then I wouldn’t have dreamed I’d have such good body awareness and dreams of owning my own mental health practice and going to grad school having friends etc. Yes it’s hard but WOW some of these issues I just don’t struggle with anymore and that’s encouraging 🤩

Very interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing this. :)
