Thought help: Low self-esteem issue. - Help.com

Firstly, you are beautiful. To judge yourself off of societies classification of beauty and compare yourself to someone that is not you is unfair to yourself . You are YOU , pretty in every way because the way you look on the outside is not what makes you in the first place. I as a girl also understand your feeling of insecurity about your looks. Just wear what you’re comfortable in and what you think makes you look pretty! Not what other people tell you to wear or what magazines say are the best for “everyone who’s anyone”

Ugliness means nothing. Ugliness completely disappears to others when a person is funny or kind or capable or confident. In fact, consider it a filter for shallow people which stops working as soon as they see how good you are at random stuff.
The fact that you think of yourself in this way is bad though. I think you need to set some goals for yourself and reach them. Take pride in your achievements, then you’ll start to feel better about yourself.

I’ve been told I put myself down too much so i know what it’s like hun, i’m overweight and have been called fat and ugly all my life lol the only time i feel remotely pretty or normal is when i’m drunk or when i’ve got ten layers of makeup, fake tan and false eyelashes on haha, my bf told me the other day in his car i need to stop putting myself down and my brother in laws mate told me a few weeks ago i do it out of habit sometimes i think. I’m sure you’re not ugly it might just be all in your head like it is with me, if people tell you you’re pretty and they’re not telling you in a sarcastic tone then you are.

You are beautiful, inside and out. Let no one tell you that you are not! Whether you THINK you are or not, you better BELIEVE you are. There is always going to be someone prettier, smarter, taller, shorter, uglier, faster, slower, and any other ‘ers you can think of. Just be the best you can be. Most guys do not care about looks, they care about personality, sense of humor, and inner beauty. The outer looks only draw their attention, but this can be done soo many other ways. There is someone for everyone and many fish in the sea. Never give up and keep your options open. Also, do not make this a main priority, because then you will focus too much on this instead of living life, and maybe not realizing that another person is starring at you from across the room. Live life how you would like to and enjoy every minute. There will always be someone to come along and would willingly love to join you. Being pretty on the outside is not as important as being beautiful on the inside!
