I Wonder What People Really See

When I look in the mirror I don't see anything I like. When I catch a glimpse of my reflection, I can't help but wonder what other people see. I wonder if they see what I do or whether there's more ugliness my eyes refuse to see. Sometimes I can see new ugly features from different angles and try and piece myself together in my minds eye. No wonder I am alone.

I've had body dysmorphic disorder since i was a kid.
Which is lame as I'm told I look good and when I'm really having problems I starve myself and run like a maniac.
TMI?

@elVato Makes sense. Not TMI. We just have to try and cope I guess? I'm real good at locking emotions deep down... until they burst out... oops.

@PandorasBox At 44, I've learned to appreciate my demons.

Its all in your head. You are a beautiful and created in the image of God. You just need to boost your confidence. Go get your hair and make up done (that works for me), do something to make yourself feel better. But trust me its all in your head.

@flawedbeauty Feeling good about one's self doesn't change one's physical appearance though 🤔 maybe it is in my head but then why do cameras capture me all wrong too?...
