Plastic surgery

i had to redo classes around the age of 10. People soon started to call me names (for ex: the most ugliest girl in school) i never really got over it and sometimes still feel ugly. Whenever i see a bad pic of me i get instant sad and consider going under the knive.

These ideas have been in my head for five years now and started when i was 15 y/o. I often get complimented on my looks and also get enough attention from men. Still i was not able to gain my confidence back throughout the years.

I feel like the only way to feel better is making some adjustments to myself. BUT i'm afraid of operations, knives, sharp stuff,... and what if it turns out terrible? the problem is i'll forever wonder 'what if i do it and it turns out great?' am i too young for some plastic? Thoughts?

    So you're around 20 years old? Have a look around: how many people do you see who have "perfect" looks? If you see any, do you think they're happier than less than perfect looks?

    If you have surgery without working on your self esteem issues you still won't be satisfied with your appearance. Anyway, focussing on your looks to the exclusion of all your other qualities is very immature and superficial.

    If you really want to go under the knife, please take a detour, and spend some time on the therapists couch first! I think all of this is a result of the bullying. It's a good thing that you are afraid of knives and needles, dear heart!

    Most likely the problem isn't you, or anything about your appearance. The problem is that bullies are soulless little shits!

    • no, i still leave the house. The problem is i really hate my face in profil. If i see a nice guy on the bus, streets,... i will look in a certain direction so they 'can't see' the 'bad' side.
      When people look my way and i hear them laugh i immediately think they're making fun of my looks. I sometimes start to hear bad comments again, which might not even be there at all...

        It’s possible you have body dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)

    Perhaps not worth it if u get compliments from men. Botched up plastic surgery is possible and its results are horrific. For example Priscilla Presley.
