How come im always being put down?

Girl, you're beautiful. It's not the outside, it's the inside. Just keep telling yourself that you're beautiful, because you are okay hun. :) Lots of love

I don't particularly remember what this quote was but it conveyed the meaning that we live not to fit in, but to be ourselves. I'm not going to lie, we are all ugly in our own ways, we are all stupid, fat, bitchy, gross, small, you name it, we all are. Don't worry about it, just be yourself. I've been called anorexic for my petite size, I've been called stupid because I'm an Asian with poor grades, heck, I've been called a bitch, slut, and much more for what I believe in. Keep your head strong, know who you truly are, and live your life without shame.

Everybody has a few things about them that they consider bad or ugly. Some days I look in the mirror and think "Hey there stud". Other days (not as much these days) I look and think... "eww gross.. who would want to talk to you." I could look exactly the same both times and yet the way I see myself changes dramatically because of how I feel that day... or more importantly.. what I am looking at. Am I looking at the eyes I get complimented on.. or the bags underneath them?When you are young (i'm guessing you are but it doesn't matter if you aren't) you are still undergoing changes and you tend to notice things more because everyone else is noticing changes too and comparing themselves with or without realizing... sometimes people try to make themselves feel better by pointing out your insecurities... because of this... you only look at the inevitable parts of your body that aren't perfect that comes with being human. You could have the most stunning eyes in the world... but have a slightly crooked nose... If someone tells you "You have an ugly nose" all it says about you is that you have flaws just like everybody else... however on the flip-side it is a huge statement about their shitty personality.But what if you yourself don't like your crooked nose... perhaps you think that no one will like you because of it. Well, sometimes I look at my Ex Girlfriends and think.. "How could I have ever loved them? They have so many annoying habits." Perhaps I notice now that their crooked nose is not endearing as I used to think... but ugly.That's because what we see in someone and how we see it depends on us... not on the person themselves.I have scars on my neck and I have been made fun of because of it. By who? By jerks... and I don't care about jerks, so why should I care what they have to say. What I care more about.. is the people who don't give a shit about my scars.. or even say "cool scars man". Just... learn to love yourself.. your opinion is the only one that matters. Nice people who have done the same thing will follow.

self confidence is loveiler than self consciousness

Start with the small things to make yourself feel better. Not the big things. Just remember pointless things like you can speak clearly or you are taller/shorter than that person or even the fact that you can type incredibly fast without mistakes. Just weird things like that is the way to get yourself from being really badly insecure because its a start at feeling good about yourself.
