girl help: Why do i do this? - Help.com

Maybe you should research this disorder Paranoid Personality Disorder. Or it could be you just don’t like compliments. I guess it depends on how much you beat yourself up.

I do say thank you but when its a person i like i tend to point them out. I try to make them see what i see which is bad because if they like something i shouldnt say the opposite to make them not like it… Right? I dont like anything about me really but my nose. I want to love everything about me….

in my view there is nothing wrong with you. Yes you may have PPD or SPD but they are not really bad things, its just the way you are and if other people dont like it then thats their problem, not yours!

i’m like what you describe, i dont like people complimenting me, i feel that its restrictive and uncomfortable and difficult to reply to, i’d rather someone said that there was somthing wrong with me where i would joke about it (thats part of my sense of humour, i dont care what people think about me) or agree with cus i know what i am.

If its really bothering you just try to say thanks and say somthing similar back, i dont really know what to suggest cus i just live the way i am and i am used to it but its different for everyone who experiances this so living with it may not be an option.

Stop pointing out your flaws and start loving yourself.
It really IS that simple. If you have enough people telling you, why can’t you believe it?

Because its hard… I wish i did thought but all i see is a girl with chubby cheeks, a little overweight, and other things that i rather not say. But basically ppl tell me everyday im beautiful or pretty or whatever but i just see the flaws. I think something is really wrong with me because it affects my mood. If i think im ugly or fat i will be reserved and unenergized but if i feel good about myself im a total different person… Is that normal?

You’re punishing yourself for something you cannot control, of course that is going to effect your self esteem. But again I wonder if people keep telling you you’re beautiful then it MUST be true. (Otherwise you’re surrounded by liars and well… it’s either time for you to accept the way you are because it cannot be undone, or lose your peers.)
I know I love when people tell me I’m beautiful. Sure I have an ugly birthmark and an acne problem but they can see past that so I don’t let it bother me.
