Hi princess31,
Thank you for your comment and for being a part of the EmpowHER community. I'm glad you are here, this site is for you. Are you ready to take control of your weight, and self-esteem? You are your own worst critic, and if you lack self-confidence, you can take control and work to improve those things for yourself. Have you tried therapy, or support groups? We have groups for Diet and Depression here at EmpowHER. There also are great articles about everything from healthy eating and exercise, to coping with depression and stress. We also have relationship articles.
A person cannot make you feel anything, it is you who makes a decision how to take in information from other people. Project self-confidence, and you may notice a different experience in the world. Some say, "fake it 'til you make it," you can feel better about yourself, but it all comes down to you.
Ask yourself what are you doing to help yourself? I have dealt with similar issues, and have said to myself, "It's ok to feel bad today, but tomorrow, I will attack that problem with everything I've got." If you want a compliment, be with someone who loves you for you. If you want to feel good, work on yourself until you are comfortable in your own skin, and then work it, girl! Don't be a victim, be EmpowHERed. Be your own best advocate. We are here to inspire and support you. You can do it. Let us know how we can help. What speaks to you, what inspires you? Take that step, then another, and then another...keep on moving forward. I know it's not easy. Hope this helps.
Good luck and let us know how you are.
-Christine
