    Yeah. Self image can be a challenge. Especially today with social and filters and such. Being a real human with flaws is getting harder. I’m glad you shared here. Do you talk about it with anyone close to you? Not saying you should, just curious if those around you know you are struggling.

    It sucks that self hate thoughts can come up. Yet so natural depending on how we've heard others talk about body shape, purpose, expectations. Can you find any part of your body that you appreciate? Skin that absorbs the warm sunshine, feet that carry your body to work, something simple that you like?

    I haven’t talked to anyone about it. My close circle makes many small comments that contribute to the issue all the time. Like “you need to eat more” “you’re looking extra skinny today” , etc. I don’t know what to do
