Dealing Wiith Dismorphohobia Anyway
Oh man, I'm totally exhausted, you know? It's like I can't even feel or accept my own body-it's always feeling weird and uncomfortable. Every time I look at myself, it's like seeing someone else through a window. Honestly, I've been dealing with depression for ages along with other mental stuff, and I just want to feel better about everything. I'd love to truly love myself and be okay with who I am.
I have this constant muscle tension going on too-like my whole body is tight as a drum. Even my face feels frozen, it's like all these unspoken feelings are trapped inside. It's not that I think I'm unattraactive or anything, but honestly, I just don't like myself. My appearance seems to belong to someone else, and it's hard to feel like this face is mine. That's a big part of why my mental state feels so off.
I get that dysmorphophobia is linked to deeper issues from way back when-traumas building up over the years. I really want to work through all that and moev forward, you know?
