What to do if you hate everything about yourself?

[Anonymous]

I hate my genetics, i hate my childish skinny face which caused too many bullying in my childhood, i hate my etnicity, i hate my First native language, i hate that i lost all my hair at the age of 30, i hate that i am a low energy introverted quiet and lonely person, i hate that my knees and foot has pain when walking and my chest pain due to heart attack risk. Fuck my genetics and all my conditions. What to do then?

1. Go to therapy
2. I used to hate everything about myself. It got better when I was eating healthy and exercising very regularly but I’ve kind of fallen off of that the past while due to other things going on in my life. I feel a bit bad about my appearance again…however! I feel a lot better about myself as a person. What I do to achieve this is just be myself, and myself is someone I feel I can be content with. I used to be so angry and upset all the time, but now that I am taking time to do things I enjoy I feel a lot better and have become myself again. I appreciate that I am a kind, caring person and do what I can to help others where possible, I take time for things I enjoy such as reading and watching documentaries which makes me feel educated and happy.


You are a human, there are so many different things in the world that you can do. So many interests to explore and skills to learn. Learning something new can help people feel a sense of achievement which then can make you feel better about yourself. You could try an instrument, some kind of art or craft, building something, exercise, reading a book, etc.

Combine turmeric with black pepper and take reishi mushrooms and omega 3 and your health will get better.

We can't really change things such as our genetics as of right now so its pointless to get hung up on them. You should focus on what you CAN change and then do something you are proud of, simple as that. Become more than what you were just born as.

Go to therapy, or find a friend that truly cares about you and can tell you the good when you see bad. Hope this helps

1. Therapy
2. Change... from appearance like clothing and style to your mindset

I personally did a list when I was 16, I wrote down who I am at that moment, everything that came to my mind and then I made another list of who I wanna become as a person and how I'm gonna archive that and today I'm that person that I wanted to be

So change the things you can.
