i’ve been feeling low about myself for a very long time now. i’ve been with my boyfriend for about seven months now and although things are great between us, i feel like my lack of confidence is getting in the way of it all. i tend to get very insecure and sensitive at the most randomest times and i take what other people say to heart even if it’s not meant to be an insult. my boyfriend and my friends always tell me how highly they think of me and that i’m too hard on myself and need to learn to accept myself but instead of taking it into consideration it just makes me feel even more shitty about myself. i’m not sure why i feel this way, i can’t even be alone with myself without feeling disgusting and getting mean thoughts towards the way i look, the way i am etc. i try to talk to my boyfriend about this, he’s very supportive but i feel like i’m becoming a burden on him and it makes me wanna distance myself from him and everybody. and then when i distance myself i become very quiet and i don’t believe anything they say and i just assume everybody hates me and idk it’s just a vicious cycle n i’m tired of feeling so down abt myself :(
