look i know some of you are annoyed and are saying I am an attention seeker ,...please try to understand I am grateful for the help, but its difficult to explain how I feel, thats why i am saying I have this problem...I do I do I do...if you call it attention seeking then thats what some of you may call it, I have no arguments, my point is how can i get rid of it. I cannot explain to you how miserable I feel about this, thats why I posted here in the first place...
:frown: I need help...i need to get rid of this self esteem problem,...and I need to know how....so telling me i have so problem Ik now i have it , i just want the right help....

I don't think you have a self esteem problem, I think the issue is more that it upsets you when other people don't seem to think you're as top notch as you appear to yourself, and I'm not saying that to be spiteful it just genuinely seems to be the case.

You know, I'm ever so slightly annoyed with you now. You seem to have attention-seeking issues as opposed to aesthetic ones. I can pity the latter, not the former You know deep down you're fine, but just want people to go on about you all the times, it seems. Some of us literally never get compliments and we're still living.

Living depressed? Oh no, wait, that's the OP. Gosh, she really is lucky. :rolleyes: Here's a thought: next time you see someone claim they have a problem, and you don't think it's a problem, hold your tongue for just one second and realise that if it wasn't a problem to them, they wouldn't mention it? This isn't your problem, you're "still living", so why the hell are you annoyed that someone else finds it a problem?

Why are half the people in here (and I don't mean you, minimo, I mean the ones who replying to would be a waste of my energy) being *****?

Look, I dunno if it's a thing girls notice (seeing as we've all done it - to a lesser extent - at some point!) or something, but I can sense she's doing that 'deep down i know i'm fine (see her boobs and bum comment) but I need to be told I'm fine - all the time' thing.

To be honest, I think people are often far to willing to assume that others have serious problems rather than the fact they're suffering from teenage angst. I had a lot of sympathy for the OP in her first post, but a few of her comments in the second made me :rolleyes:

If anything I'd like to know how tall the OP is - I reckon that unless you're quite short 7.5 stones is an unhealthy weight. That might be something she should be worrying about more.

generalebriety - If someone started a thread saying 'I'm so depressed, my parents bought me this this and this for my birthday but they didn't buy me this', and people responded negatively, you wouldn't tell them off for that, even though to the OP it was a serious problem causing them distress. Sometimes people are upset over stupid things that can't be helped by anyone else. The OP has said she knows she's not ugly, she even felt confident enough to describe her slimness and good boobs and bum, she's also said that she's complimented all the time - how then, can anyone be hugely sympathetic? All she can do is try to remember that most people don't go up to a random person and say you're crazy hot baby, even if they're thinking it, and that she should view things with a little more maturity.

very well said.

Note she hasn't given a list of any 'deformities' e.g. braces/weight/acne/glasses. She's been quite happy to list her strengths and tbh seems quite confident with her body.
