Is this a sign of low self esteem or possibly depression?

Question

I Don't like to think I'm pretty cause if I do I feel like i'm being conceited... I think I'm fat even when people tell me i'm not i feel like their just saying that... I cover myself up, like i always wear jackets when ever i go out. I Look at beautiful girls who are famous and i wish i could be as beautiful as them and my eyes get watery. I want to be alone sometimes and not talk to anyone and just relax. Only one person has told me i have a low self esteem.

Answer 1

It sounds like you might be developing a low self esteem. Thinking that you're beautiful isn't be conceited. It's not your fault, it's the world we live in today. You look on TV and they have all these skinny women in their underwear. Personally it makes me sick how some of these women look. If I can see your ribs... I'm taking you out for some fried chicken! Seriously, though, being that skinny is unhealthy and a lot of men, including me, find it unattractive. First, you've got to be happy with yourself. So, just tell yourself you're beautiful and you'll start to see it!  

Answer 2

In all honesty, you sound like me! :P

Well, if it is low self asteem or depression then let it be! We'll be depressed little sad sacks together! :D

Answer 3

Aww baby girl. I hope someone has told you that those beautiful girls you see in magazines ARE NOT REAL. Now let me tell you that I have depression. And I have low self esteem. But that's something that you could fix before it gets to bad. Remember, "Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder" & baby girl, I've never seen you in my life & I beleive you are simply stunning.

Answer 4

Answer 5

You're female.

Answer 6

many teenagers and even adults go through times like this. we start getting self-conscious and doubt ourselves. we also go through "angsty times" and tend to overreact over small things. it's the hormones. the best way to deal with it is to just think of your good qualities and try not to think and stress over the little, superficial things. :)

it's definitely not depression, though.
