I find myself butt ugly

Especially in the past few weeks I've been shocked with horror whenever I saw my reflection in the mirror. How can you love yourself, and get rid of social anxiety, when you're convinced that you're butt ugly? The funny thing is that when I feel good, I sometimes find myself good-looking :roll:

I'm not sure I'll ever find the answer to this. I've actually tried to just stop looking the mirror for my own sake.

I can totally relate. I also always feel more "good-looking" when im at home and not in public...Does anyone else feel like that?
 
Ditto. I go through times, like right now, where I hate to look in the mirror and see my face but I have to! I go through other times where I feel ok about the way I look, but I never feel satisfied about my appearance. I hate going out in public because I know other people can see my face and how ugly I am. I know they think "Christ that thing is ugly. She looks like a boy"

"How can you love yourself, and get rid of social anxiety, when you're convinced that you're butt ugly?"

Yeah I feel that. I can't ever see myself being happy with the way I look or loving myself. You totally can't be happy unless you like yourself. So its like "Whats the point?"

I just really want an invisibility cloak. That would be awesome.

It seems at times we are too hard on are selves, we are afraid of everyone else judging us, when the biggest critic is our self. The way I feel about my looks when someone gets a first impression of me my social skills are terrible so how I look can be way too important. You even say your self you find you selves good-looking, you’re probably just putting to much pressure on your looks lately.

I know I stress over how I look all the time, but if I met some one else how they look is the furthest thing from my mind. I’m sure we’ve met people who are really good looking but are real pricks, cold cruel and arrogant. Looks are over rated, we need more good, kind, reasonable and unbiased people in the world, that’s what is important.

Body dysmorphia seems to be common in social phobia sufferers. I too often see myself as repulsive but not so much physically repulsive nowdays..I just find my personality repulsive.

I don't necessarily think I'm ugly, I just consider myself to be average looking. When I'm at a bar or something I usually don't get girls that approach me ever. I think it's just more from the nervous vibe I send out than anything to do with my looks. But I'm always extremely self conscious about what I wear. I just feel like I'm constantly being judged by what I wear.

Yeah, i feel like that sometimes.

Also, when i spend time with my friends i feel ugly in comparison to them. Damn, all my friends are like freakin' supermodels - seriously, they're all tall, slim and beautiful. Then there's me: i'm short, i'm not fat but i could do with cutting down on the chocolate, and i'm plain. Why do i hang around with gorgeous people? Makes me feel bad about myself...

Funny thing is, i spend more time staring in mirrors than anyone else i know! Thinking about all the things i would change if i could...

At first I thought this thread was about you thinking that your butt was ugly. (O,o)

Sadly that's true as well, since I have hair on my butt. I don't like my hairy legs and butt. There are men who have it much worse than me, but still..

I think I have the most hair on the legs and butt in my familiy. Hair on men is nothing to worry about. ;) Unless it's on the back. Hairy backs are a bit freaky.

I feel the same. When I feel good, I think I look decent but generally, I can't stand looking at myself. I just got a new computer (mac <3) with a built in camera and I've become over obsessive with analyzing every stupid little thing taking pictures left and right >.< Again sometimes I look good when I feel good, but when I don't I look like crap.

While I'm extremely self concious I realise looks arent everything. Some of the ugliest people at work are quite fun to be around and once you get to know em, don't seem ugly or anything like that at all. They look normal.

I hate both my physical appearance and my personality though... I'm a bit immature/eccentric and can say some of the stupidest things when I'm not thinking right. Im convinced 99% of the people at work think I'm a pasty white scrawny retard with half a brain >.< Oh well.
