It is me. It was taken in early 2007 though. I just want to like the way I look and the person I am. I know it's to do with my self esteem but I just can't shake off this feeling of being ugly. People in the street call me a "minger" and people at school called me a "munter". It still really hurts.

Its because you're a goth, they're just idiots who judge what you wear... Its not your face, thats obvious I think goth type clothes are gorgeous, but the idiots out there don't get it do they? its their problem, not yours but it isn't easy to ignore.

Thanks. I know that it's part of my BPD too, the low self esteem and unstable self image etc. That's how I try to rationalise it, and on good days I can at least have my hair off of my face and go out make up free but on bad days I get so low. I cover all the mirrors in my house with sheets so I don't have to see myself. I'm going to pluck up the courage to talk to my doctor about it because she said if I ever need to talk to her than I can.

I don't get how people can be so judgemental. I would never dream of abusing someone in the street for the way they were dressed (not that I would abuse anyone in the street anyway.lol.). It makes me so sad when people judge others. Maybe I just don't understand it because I don't do it. I believe it's important to get to know a person via their personality, not make judgements about them via their clothes.

I just can't understand the mentality of people who say that sort of things to others. Even if I thought something, I would never dream of saying it aloud, I hate myself if I even think it to be honest.

It's a reflection on them really.If they felt good about themselves they wouldn't need to do it:rolleyes:
