Q: I'm So Upset... I'm Ugly!!

Hey Everyone.

Im 15 years old and suffer from Manic Depression among many other mental illnesses.


Recently I was told that many people thought i was ugly. This has really knocked my confidence so badly. I cry myself to sleep at night, wishing i was pretty. All my cousins are pretty. All of them. My sisters are pretty. My brothers aren't ugly. I seem to be the only Ugly one.
I'm also overweight. and spotty. And its really upset me so badly i wish i was dead and i keep wanting to kill myself.
No one in my family knows this. I used to be confident and up until recently thought i scrubbed up well.

I won't talk to my friends because i feel there not in the same league, i've threatened to kill myself and wont talk to them on msn. I've switched my phone off and wont go out my front door because i always think people are laughing at me and making comments on me.

there is someone out there for everyone..really, and self confidence has alot to do with attraction..a guy isn't going to want a girl that is not confident about herself...hold your head up high, do you wear make up? if not, start its fun and girly! take the time to do your hair..i'm not saying that you should attract a guy that is only interested in you physically BUT..i will say that I can hold my head up much higher if I'm all dolled up with my hair and makeup done..if i walk outta the house w/o at least mascara on I dont even want anyone to LOOK at me lol...my point is, its about how you FEEL...for me, doing my make up and hair makes me feel prettier therefore i'm more confident...so go out and get you some new clothes or get a new haircut, whatever it is that makes YOU feel better about yourself! go for a good work out it releases natural endorphines that help with depression! just try! and beauty is in the eye of the beholder..always remember that

you feel bad about yourself. please dont isolate your friends thats a sign of depression and it can control your thoughts and everything you do. theres no such thing as ugly the bible teaches that we are fearfully and wonderfully made psalms 139:14. we were made in God's image.
do something to make yourself feel good about yourself...get your hair done, toes, or nails. please dont isolate yourself and push your friends away. dont consentrate too much on thoes negative thoughts.
