Self Consciousness + Acne

I'm so self-conscious I cry myself to sleep and don't eat for days at a time. I have awful acne, and I'm 5'4 and 150 pounds! I've been anorexic, thinking of going back, and depressed. My family just calls me a drama queen and tells me to get over it!!

You are beautiful!
by: Anonymous

God doesn't make junk! You may feel like you are but that's just a lie that Saten has put in your head to try and keep you down. Think about it; take a look at some pictures of snowflakes. Each of them are beautiful and unique but only last for a short amount of time. If God puts so much effort into countless amounts of snowflakes just think about how much more effort He put into you! You were made in his image, and God said that it was good! Please hold on okay? Check out the articles on this website and find someone that you can talk to. I know how you feel, I've been through so many issues similar to your own. I'll be praying for you beautiful! <3
Precious + Self - Conscious
by: Anonymous

Hello Precious, read your post and knew that I had to also say something to you.
Firstly, is it possible for you to talk to your mom? Perhaps there's something that could be done to help with the acne. Acne is common during this time, but perhaps some dietary changes or meds could help -
But even deeper than that, you need to know - I mean really know and appreciate "Your True Beauty". Precious, there is awesome power available to the young ladies who find and appreciate their worth.
Go to a bible study that teaches you how to understand the Word of God and show you how to apply it personally.
There is even a wealth of godly wisdom at this site that you can use in addition to the Bible. Read Shelley's book, take the different tests, do the various exercises so that you can grow.
God bless you Precious, keep us posted.
