i have a lot of problems with self-esteem, i always feel like a failure. i can't leave my house without my makeup on, but i always feel ugly. i do whatever i can to keep my skin beautiful. i obsess about my weight and i always feel fat. i only eat natural foods and very small portions. (even though i have a normal BMI) i'm really short and i feel like a freak. i'm also a ballet dancer, so i feel the need to be perfect whenever i dance. when i mess up (even in class) i want to melt into the floor. i'm 17 years old have been in ballet since i was 3. i know i have a talent, but i'm also afraid to admit it.
my boyfriend tells me i'm perfect and tells me i'm beautiful. i don't know how to respond. he tells me that he loves me but i can't even love myself.
i am a cancer survivor, but sometimes i feel like i didn't deserve to survive when i knew so many people who didn't. (i was diagnosed with leukemia when i was 12 and went into remission when i was 15)
i'm failing 3 of my classes right now, simply because i can't pay attention in class. i'm always distracted by thinking about what other people think of me. i can't concentrate on anything and i feel like my life is falling apart.
i LOVE my boyfriend, but i'm also afraid he's going to break up with me because i'm too ugly or too fat. (i know i'm not actually fat, but i'm a dancer so i HAVE to the thin!!!)
i need some help right now...
