Most everyone will tell you that they think they're ugly, it's quite sad actually. There was a point when I had the lowest opinion about myself, my SA was severe and I could barely function. It started as just being merely nervous, wondering what others thought about me or how I looked, then progressed into my friends to the point where I would be sitting with them and literally being having a panic attack. In my head, I gave myself the mental image I thought I looked like...I've got a HORRIBLE opinion about myself and it showed. I had no confidence in myself, my eyes were always down, slouched, hands in lap at all time like a submissive dog. That's how I assumed I looked, like a dog.
But once I started seeing someone, feeling better about myself and talking out how I felt it got so much better. I don't think I'm a beauty in the least and I don't like complimenting myself because it seems very vain and conceited but I certainly don't think I'm ugly. Maybe bordering on pretty and that's enough for me
That's very well said.
