Self Esteem

Fighting your depression doesn't mean denying that you feel that way.
Depression also is never going to go away, it doesn't magically get better one day. It does get easier, but it's not magic. Fighting depression takes work, takes want. Not just the regular want, I mean hardcore down to your very last being of wanting. You have to put every little bit of strength you have into it for a very long time to make it better, but it is worth it. I'm still not completely outta my depression, but I can feel it getting better and I've been fighting this depression for my whole life. Here are some tips for things you probably have a hard time with
Self-esteem: Well sub-category this one
Looks:
Here's one I find every human being has in one way or another. Despite what you think, you're definitely not alone on this one. Even pretty stick figures have self-esteem issues, that's why they are so skinny. I could tell you to diet to make yourself feel skinnier, I could tell you to wear make-up or do little things to change the way you look... but honestly they probably won't make you happy. Yeah it will probably raise your self-esteem, but the fact is you have to work at it. Dieting and changing the way you look takes time and is a life time commitment, the second you stop you will probably go back to the old you. What you need to do is accept that you are who you are, for good or for bad you have to be you. Eventually someone will look at you differently then you do and think you're amazingly good looking, because everyone is different. We all like different stuff, so whose to say if you're not "pretty?" What even is pretty? What society says? Who are they to decide what is the best and what everyone should like, no 2 people are the same.... so doesn't that mean everyone is technically pretty just in their own way? YES IT DOES. You are good looking and people can see that, so try to remind yourself that.
Traits:
You probably don't feel like your good at anything or good enough to do anything. Guess what? Everyone feels this way too! The worst part about this one is it takes work. Saying your not good at something just means your to lazy to try. Talent doesn't just pop outta the ground it takes work and yeah you'll mess up but ya gotta push forward. The only thing you're doing by saying you suck at everything is stopping yourself from trying cuz you're to lazy or to scared of both. Yeah you may be scared, but you gotta move through that and push forward otherwise you will be stuck where you are forever. YOU HAVE TO TRY TO SUCCEED. If you need help, again like I said in another post, I'm always here for you.
The best thing to remember every day is that you are special and that life could be worse, that you actually got better then you think you did. You have a world at your feet, use it. You have so much to give and to offer us let us see what you can really do, because I believe you can be amazing if you just put your mind to it. YOU ARE AMAZING!
