I Battle Depression

Yep, RIP my self-esteem.. Or what was there of it

So yesterday I posted a picture of me working out in the gym and posted here on EP and that was my exact caption "building myself from grounds up. Forever ugly tho" then 20 mins ago had this person saying that she agrees with it because im an attention-seeker!!l. When i told her that she was quick to judge me because this was the first time I even posted a gym selfie because of that very specific reason, to not be called an attention-seeker or a showoff. Then she said that im the male equivalent of a girl who is full off makeup and wearing a dress saying she is looking terribly


Well im sorry but thats not the case here miss. I actually do have major self-esteem issues and i do suffer from self-hatred, i absolutely loath how i look, i look at myself in the mirror and extremely hate what i see, simply put. You assumed that im doing it for attention and quickly judged me that im asking for attention, not someone who happens to have some self-worth issues and for the first time ever, I thought i may even look somewhere fine at least... Then you had to say that to me when i was starting to finally feel good about myself ... When i said im ugly, I very much meant it... I knew it was too much of a step to take, i know i shouldnt even let anyone see my face, thank you..

Don't worry about what others have to say. I know it's hard. I'm still working on that bit myself. Just know that once you learn to love and accept all of what and who you are, no one could ever make you feel less than. I'm sure you're a beautiful person, inside and out. People are just shallow idiots and those are the people we pay no mind (:
