Many people feel this way, sometimes it is a cause of depression or chemical imbalances in the brain!.
But it is sometimes caused by many other things!.
There are many women, even those known for their beauty and famous women that do not feel pretty!. You are not alone, this is why some are anorexia or have bulimia, they have one view of themselves that is often not real!.
In psychology, I remember this chapter where they had people draw a picture of how they think they look, and then showed a picture of how they really looked, I will never forget how different it was!. This happens to many women, we are taught to be perfect, skinny etc!. Just know that if you find you can not cope with these feelings get some counseling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know I feel that way to!. That's why my mom does my hair!. I have this birth mark on my neck and everybody thinks its a mole and they always make fun of me!. My Friend is 90-100 pounds and she is in 10 grade and I am 90-100 pounds and she says that's freaky and I just tell her she is anorexic!.

I learned that is it really hard to love someone unless you can love yourself; and the best way to love yourself is to get in touch with God and feel his Grace!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I've been working on this for years myself!. What I have found is that I'm too self-absorbed, and the solution for getting out of this bondage of self is to get out and do stuff!. Work,play, but especially to try and help others!. Just little things like opening doors for people, giving people the right of way in traffic or with a grocery cart in the store, complimenting someone on how nice their yard looks!. Do you know anyone else who might be a little down on themselves!? Give them a call!. Talk to them!. You will both feel better!. These are things which help me to get out of my head!. I'm still incredibly selfish because I'm doing these things primarily so I will feel better about myself!. They did a study years ago where they had people spend a minute or two standing in front of the mirror just smiling at themselves and found that those that did it were happier than those that didn't!. You might feel kind of silly at first, but it works!. I do it even when I'm not feeling down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
