Is it normal to feel suicidal, because of your physical appearance?

I'm tired of trying to figure out what people are thinking about my body. How my face looks. My weight. It all seems very vital in our society to come across in a certain fashion. Fit the machine. I want to end it.

    I find it amusing how people would rather feel suicidal/kill themselves instead of working out and losing weight and inproving their own bodies.

    I don't think you should worry so much about what other people are thinking about you. I know, that is easier said than done, but in the end, you would make yourself a lot more happier if you could appreciate yourself for what you are rather than what people see you as.

    If you vote that it's normal you deserve to rot in hell. You shouldn't have suicidal thoughts over anything and voting yes it encouraging it. That won't help the poster see that every human is different and all the flaws we see in ourselves is what makes us who we are. The only people who look in the mirror and snicker at the fact that they are "beautiful" are just full of themselves, their bodies are most likely fake from surgery anyway. There is someone out there for everyone so if you're feeling suicidal think about it. Just really think about how there is someone walking around the Earth that would think of you as their true love but you just havent found them yet. You have only seen the people who dont like you for who you are, they are the ones who are wrong. So look at yourself in the mirror and see those flaws, those right there are the reason the ones who love you love you. If everyone was beautiful or exactly the same society would still find people to call ugly.

    Yeah it is normal. But you shouldn't end it because the biggest secret that's not a secret at all, is that it really doesn't matter what you look like. What matters is the kind of person you are on the inside, and if you don't like that then its kind of person you have the potential to become. The hardest thing to do is to realize that you're worth it. I tried taking my life when I was in 7th grade because I felt like nobody understood me, but all these years later, I am glad that I failed. Because now I finally understand that I have the power to feel good about who I am, and I've finally found friends that accept me as well. If you want to talk I'm here for you.

    I think food, and water are the vital needs in society. Not people's looks.
