i went to my cousin's bday party 2 days ago. i didn't wanna take any pics due to being ugly and having bdd.
well, my mom (who KNOWS i struggle with bdd) asked my cousin's daughter to take a pic of us. i was drunk so i obliged.

my mom showed me the pic yesterday and i fought back tears as i looked at it. my jaw/chin is HUGE due to my underbite. i look AWFUL. i'm genuinely the ugliest person i've ever seen.


there's no point in living if you're ugly.

i feel your pain. it's so hard looking at myself in pictures. i feel literal pain. life would be so much easier as someone who's attractive, shit i would've took just being average. i fucking hate how ugly i am. i hate myself.

I've been there. Now I look normal but in my head I'm still ugly
Sending you all my love and best wishes

Do not let society dictate how you view beauty.
Everyone is unattractive to someone and likewise everyone is attractive to someone.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is true.
People have vastly different tastes. Something you might not like could be someone else's favorite part.

Looks are important to an extent when it comes to sex/attraction but the most important thing is the chemistry and love itself. Good chemistry/true love can make up for almost anything.

Your body isn't even who you are. It's simply a vessel. A vehicle.
Your actions and thoughts and choices make up who you are.

My guru teaches that there is no such thing as ugly. Only beauty. There is so much detail, complexity, and beauty in an ant because our human minds are just as detailed, complex, and beautiful. When you go through life believing in things that are ugly this will be true, but if don't believe in ugly, then the world becomes a beautiful paradise.

I'm sorry you're in so much pain. We wish you peace. Big hugs. Be well on your journey.

i agree with you to a certain extent. i'm not religious, but i do believe we are something more, whatever that may be. however, this cursed vessel is how i am portrayed to the world, to people, to society. no one has ever given me a compliment in my life. not once. it is excruciating being this alone. i guess it is what it is.
