Extremely Self-Conscious???!
Question: Extremely Self-Conscious!?!?!?
I just turned 17, and I have noticed that i am getting more and more self-conscious of my looks, my weight, even what i say!. I have really low self-esteem!. I am also trying to recover from anorexia, and have begun to realize that my weight is so low that it looks disgusting, which makes me feel even worse!. People at school make mean comments and even my mom tells me i look sick!. I also hate the way i look in general!. I am always worried what people are thinking of me!. I even analyze conversations i have with people and wonder what they were thinking about me!. It's getting to the point where i am afraid to walk my dog or go to the store for fear i might see someone i know!. How can i get over this!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

i think you should ask your mom to take you to the doctors so you can recive some help from them!.
also you need to know that no matter what other people think of you nothing they say can bring you down unless you let it!.
no let them rule your life!. and make you feel uncomfortable in your own skin!. you are young and regardless of anything anyone says or thinks im sure you are beautiful!. but you need to love yourself and give yourself some credit!. i know its hard to change from having an eating disorder i had one when i was 17 til i was 19!.!.im 23 now but it took me alot of time to realize i am a good person inside and if i take care of myself and i love the way i look and feel then theres nothing anyone could do to make me feel different!. i really hope everything turns out good!. and if u ever need to talk email me

I'm sorry to hear that you're having such a rough time, but it's fantastic you have started the path to healing!. You just have to remember that this hard time will pass, all things come to an end eventually!.
One thing which helped me from a similar fix was telling myself that I did deserve to enjoy life, and focusing on aspirations and feeling good about myself!. I recommend meditation or reading 1001 Pearls of Wisdom, if you're comfortable with that!.
I wish you the best, just focus on getting yourself into a better state before considering what others think!. Fear feeds on itself!.
Peace, love and harmony

If people are responding to you either positive or negative you have made an impact in their life!. Often times most people lend advice with good intentions but do not communicate it in an easily understood fashion!. Obviously you are important enough to have people care about your health, and I am glad to hear that you can now recognize that you have anorexia, and need to look more "wholesome"!. Some people never get over their insecurities, and most are just good at hiding theirs!. You need to quite focusing on vain issues, and try to put your time and effort into helping others, and making a difference!. Try volunteering it will make you feel even better about yourself, and few people give the time!. Although everyone admires those that do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
There can be several causes and several cures!. Try to eat a little more - if you aren't getting enough nutrition, all of these bad feelings can come from your body not working properly!. It doesn't mean you are a bad person, just someone who needs to do something different!.
If you go too long feeling like this, ask for help!. If you want to talk, I'm online for a while - sometimes its easier to share online first then move back into the real world!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's sounds like it may be social anxiety disorder, I suffer from it, you should look it up and see if you relate to it!. Try to talk to your doctor or a psychologist, or a parent!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
