In this day and age it seems very common practice for people to have surgery and procedures done to their face and body. As well as Facetune and edit their photos on social media to look a certain way. And suddenly everyone on the internet is drop dead gorgeous.
And then it’s easy for a young girl like me to look in the mirror on a bad day and think I’m so ugly. My nose is big. Why do I have a spot here. I have too much fat around my hips. And so on.
Suddenly these thoughts become worse as I’m exposed to more perfectly edited photos and videos on social media. But I can’t help it they’re everywhere.
Even when I know it’s edited, it still affects me. It doesn’t help either when I’m single and there’s no man in my life who loves every inch of me (physically I guess).
Having said that, I’m not one for procedures and I don’t see myself getting anything done to my appearance. I have a lot of pride in being natural.
It’s an odd one, really. And it’s something I’ve been struggling with more recently as the weather gets nicer and we’re wearing less clothes and leaving the house more.
