text: what's that disorder where you think your ugly? i think am ugly and people say am not ugly but i don't like going outside or anything.. i also lost my friends and stuff cause i had to leave school :( i used to be like that.  i thought i was the ugliest thing on this earth and had been put here as some kind of experiment.  i hated walking outside and would go into crowded rooms with my head down and blushing.  i used to think that people were staring at me because i was so ugly.  when someone stared and smiled, i thought they were laughing at me.  i eventually came to realise that i was actually very pretty and people were staring because of that.  i know where my thoughts came from ... remarks made to me as a child by my father.  can you think back to any time in your childhood when remarks were made to you that might make you think like that?  remarks made to impressionable children can unfortunately sometimes have very long-lasting effects.  you need to get to the bottom of it and you will be so relieved when you're finally convinced that you're not an ugly duckling after all .. i know i sure as hell was!  :)  start by looking in the mirror at least once a day and telling yourself 'i love you, you are a wonderful, beautfiul person'.    http://www.freewebs.com/spiritualhealing
