Tips for boosting self confidence?

Question

Alot of my friends say i have the worst self-esteem they have ever seen in a person.

and it bothers me because i always feel fat and ugly,

but yet, people see me as beautiful i suppose ( what people tell me haha)

whenever i shop for new clothes im always depressed afterwards because nothing looked good, or i looked fat in everything.

im always stressing if my hair looks good, or my makeup.

im so hard on myself, and to critical.

and i hate that because i dont want to be constantly worrying about how i look because it really tires a person.

help please?

Answer 1

Perhaps joining a Toastmasters Group might help.

With more confidence and better presentation skills you will be more successful, relaxed and happy in the world.

Answer 2

Remember, people will always see you differently than you see yourself. buy cloths you like and you look good in, don't buy cloths that are too small or too large. Makeup should look like your not wearing any at all. The biggest thing to do is not to think about others, look in the mirror and tell yourself you look good.

Answer 3

where do you think those feelings came from? if a certain person has made you feel that way avoid them!!

if the friends thing is a problem try to not complain about it as much around them because people easily get annoyed with girls who are pretty who say they are ugly or non-fat people who always say they are fat. i know i've ahd friends like that before and it seemed like the only reason they said those things was becuase they wanted to hear that they were pretty & skinny.

i dont think there is any quick fix though, just try figuring out what causes you to feel that way and stuff =]
