Dea Harn Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 So because of my body size and my face, I hate to look into mirrors to the point of fear I can't tell my parents... What should I do? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Hey DeaHarn, It's really common to have a fear of seeing our own reflection especially when we aren't happy with the way our body looks and feels. Self-love and self-acceptance is a really long journey and if I could wave a magic wand and make it all go away I would. But unfortunately, it's something we all have to work on day after day. Can you think of any positive things about yourself that have nothing to do with looks? I find when I am looking in the mirror and having bad intrusive thoughts, I think of something I love about myself such as "I am a good friend" "I am reliable" "I am friendly" and then that is what I focus on instead of whatever the thing I don't like is. Why don't you think you could tell your parents that you are struggling with your self esteem right now? -Remi MultiQuote Quote This Digital Mentor Account is no longer active.
