Me! I hate having my picture taken, especially now because I look hideous most of the time. I've gained a bunch of weight due to my low thyroid, and I have no energy to exercise or do anything about it. Actually, I haven't really taken good care of myself in a while now. I just don't see the point. I even stopped going to get my hair done, so now it's starting to turn white and gray on top. Getting old sucks!

 

[TrailerTrash]

YES - I HATE HAVING PICTURES TAKEN OR HANGING IN THE HOUSE ..... yes, I'm yelling this on purpose .... :-/

Well i look at it this way as you get older your life gets shorter :D

Me because I'm so fucking ugly, I'm always forced to have my photo taken and I fucking hate it.

 

[Kaczka86]

Ugh... Me! I suffer so much when I have to go and take my picture for something. Also I get really annoyed when others try to take a picture without my permission. Like I don't want it and I said it five times, what's so hard to understand?

 

[Soul]

I've always hated having my photo taken and being recorded. Leave no evidence, I say

 

[charlottewilts]

yeah ever since I was a kid. my mom loved taking photos of me though, she was obsessed with taking photos of everything. i remember this one time I was 7 where she forced me to stand still and be photographed, don't remember why exactly that moment was so important to capture, but I was crying in the picture due to how much I hated it it's funny to remember now. that's also why I skipped school every year when it was class photo day.

 

[LivingToLong]

I've managed to avoid being photographed over the years. I've never enjoyed it, I don't know why really. It feels like an unnatural freeze frame, and I don't like that photos are used to look back, to say something like 'we were having fun then' to other people. I guess I like my memories in my head and only for me.

What's more, I've recently started seeing smiling faces as unnatural (in photos, newspapers, on-line, whatever) and often frightening. Some peoples teeth especially sort of frighten me. I also find there's also something unreal and out-of-context about a photo. And I can't work out why people photograph themselves in front of famous monuments etc. Do they not trust their own memories!

Here! (raises hand)

I look like shit. Thankfully, I'm pretty good at avoiding being photographed. There are more pictures of Yeti out there than of myself.

 

[TheDevilsAngel]

I absolutely hate getting photos taken....i always look so weird in them...

 

[Worthless_nobody]

Oh my gosh yes I hate having my picture taken! Pictures make me look strange and distorted not how I look in real life. When I used to work I hated those office group pictures and I would desperately try and hide.

 

[Farmmaa]

Me !!
I've aged so much in the past five years I can't even look at myself in the mirror any more.
I used to be attractive... but working outside for 30 years, smoking, the nerve damage from my neck injury, grief and stress have all taken a terrible toll.
I look at least 10 years older than I am now.

I actually took a bunch of self portraits four years ago, did some touch ups and wrinkle smoothing and put them on social media so that my family will have a decent photo for my obit.

 

[mathieu]

I absolutely hate having my picture taken. I'm too fat but even when I was thin I always hated how I looked in photos.

 

[Soulless_Angel]

Ill shove seflies on line, but lower then my chin/neck only.... you ain't seeing this biatch!! My boobs are a good focus though

 

[TearyEyedQueen]

I don't have a single picture of myself from ages 13-19. Never took selfies or anything like that. My self esteem was very bad and I was afraid of being mocked and bullied because I used to get called ugly and disgusting in middle school.
I never liked how my face looked when I smiled so in those rare occassions when I absolutely had to take a picture for school I always look dead serious.
Eventually I threw those photos away in the trash because I'm only reminded of what a fuckup I was back then.

 

[Moonicide]

Yes, very much so. I avoid it as much as possible, especially video calls. I struggle with taking care of myself so I usually have to plan these things ahead of time so I can actually look presentable, lol.

 

[mattwitt]

I hate it so much I never got pictures taken in the 11th or 12th grades. Not even for the yearbook.

 

[GreyMagic]

I used to hate it. But now i just put up with it , as I see it as helpful for the people i leave behind to cherish the memories of us together.

 

[passenger27]

For some reason I look mentally challenged in almost every pic someone takes of me.

 

[mediocre]

I only have my picture taken every 10 years for my passport photo I cringe every time looking at it...

 

[voyager]

Yeah, I hate it now. The way I look, ofc, but also the fact that I don't feel attached to this life anymore. I want to disappear and leave as little trace as possible on this phase of my life, a photo is contradictory to this. I won't destroy anything, but the photos which do remain shall in large represent better times and not the mess I am now.

Interestingly, there's a photo of me at age 15, before the mhi, and one after at 16. Oddly, both are more or less in the same pose and situation. It's obviously the same person, but the physical appearance has changed so much. The second person is weak and skinny, slightly unkempt, and in general looks really unhealthy. The first is the complete opposite, also in posture. Mostly though it's the eyes. The first person's eyes are so full of confidence and life, they even sparkle in the photo. The second person's eyes are completely dead. My entire life in two simple photos.

this too, if you read this God like please try again with me in the next life, the life I want actually.

 

[BPD Barbie]

I'm only comfortable if it's me that's taking the picture, otherwise I absolutely hate it.

 

[StillWaiting]

I don't like to have my photo taken. It gets annoying when others ask me to take photos with them, they say I dont know how to smile.
