Is it normal to dislike yourself so much?

I try and I try to hype up my self-esteem, and I do want to hate self-pitying myself. But no matter what, whenever I get happy about some aspect of myself, something happens to make me feel depressed.

I always thought I had the worst features possible; I thought I was smart, but then I see others do way better than me in school, and I thought I had great friends, but it seems like people don't like talking to me. Is this normal?

  • I feel like this every day. I try to better myself, and do things that proactive and things I feel would make me feel better about myself but something always happens to ruin my happiness.
    I feel you. I know it's been over a year since you posted this and I hope things have changed for you.

  • Don't compare yourself to anyone else, you are perfect as you are. I'm healthy and things could be much worse. This is what I tell myself when all else fails. I have absolutely nothing to look forward to in the next few months but life's good ^_^

  • I’ve felt the same way for years. I don’t know when I’ll get rid of this feeling but I wanna feel special sometimes, feel pretty but still nothing. I don’t have real friends and my life is boring, I hate my job, I hate my house..well there’s no end..Just pretty up when you feel ugly!! that helps..
