I was insecure about my looks for most of my teen years (I'm 17 now) and honestly these were some of my most miserable years. I was uncomfortable in most social events and can't remember how many times I cried myself to sleep because of how ugly I felt. When I was 15 I began to dig into the lookism hole and realised something had to change. I began working out (was a weak scrawny kid), got twin block braces because my lower jaw was severely recessed, and tried to deal with my acne among other things asw. I honestly went from being sub5 to being called lmtn on average in most forums. Since then I've noticed people treat me much differently and have even noticed the way girls my age treat me now. I honestly never wanted to look like a Greek God but I just wanted to feel comfortable going outside and finally receive attention from women. I'm much more confident now, but inside I'm still that same insecure kid.
I've began to accept that I'll likely never ascend past mmtn, but I find peace in knowing that my life will be better moving forwards and I won't have to endure the same amount of suffering as I did when I was younger. I wish I my teen years went better but there's nothing I can do about it. I hope we can all eventually move on from this phase and just accept who we are
