Eating Disorders or better know as "beautiful"

I have been through eating disorders after eating disorders for almost two years. People make a huge deal about how pretty you can make yourself. I learned this the hard way and have forever injured my life. My tummy is in pain, all day and night, well it used to be, but latly I feel "better" I go one with thinking Im ugly. Looking in a mirror makes my eyes puff up with tears. I hate it. But I go on day by day trying to think Im pretty. I am told Im gorgious but from my past years I cant let the compliments through my thick skull. I have also a awful form of depression and have problems with self worth. I get help. But its hard to be friends and talk to those who have hurt me each and every day of my life. I get over this, but it still haunts me deep inside

i'm sry u feel that way! i have a thick skull too ppl always tell me i'm so beautiful and they wouldn't change me for the world but i still think i'm not pretty, all u have to do is not care, say to urself i dont care what i look like or what ppl think if me! im a wonderful person and i'm the only one who has to know it

yes I know, but i guess i have to drill through my own skull to tell myself

I have been told by my friends that i am pretty and one of my friends says I am one of the pretties girls in her eyes not in a lez way either. I am just like umm yeah thanks and ppl say i am gettin so skinny I am thinking yeah right. I sufer with an eating disorder and many forms of self injury. I don't really no what to say but there is other peo[ple like you out there. Don't feel alone.

Well im not sure what u look like but your beautiful the way u Are

Please someone define pretty/beautiful/ attractive...?

^ agreed

OK, the media is full of false advertisment for something that they define as "pretty" my definition is "pretty" is this, that when someone believes in who they are and is comfortable with what they look like, thats "pretty" to me. I hate, down right HATE, even though hate is a strong word, I hate the way media shoves being thin like a twig in every "normal" persons life. I wish that the media wasnt so gunho about looks, yet personality. But thats my point of view

Hey baby, you are my friend, one of my best ones at that. I think you are beautiful just the way you are, and I KNOW what you look like. Your friends support your desisions and we're trying to help yu. I love you,
