Now more than ever, many teenagers have problems with how they look. They have developed the habit of condemning the vessel that protects their being and coordinates all their doings. A home for their mind and emotional well-being. If you are not content with your physical appearance and cannot accept how you look, you may have a problem with body image.
What causes issues with body image?
The main cause for body image issues is the media, especially social media. Much of the media is designed to sell something or shape your thinking. Advertisers frequently use “beautiful people” to get you to buy products and services. Then your perfectionist human brain starts to compare yourself to what you see in the media.
Is having a problem with body image a serious problem?
Yes, believing in unhealthy thoughts that cause you to reject your body in a way that hurts you emotionally, physically, or mentally is a serious well-being issue. This can lead to #mybrainsaid:
Stress
Anxiety
Insecurities
Doubts
In addition to Depression, Loneliness, Low self-esteem, and other mental health issues.
What can I do if I have issues with my body image?
A good place to start is to realize that what is considered beautiful is different for every person. You can also do the following to start feeling #great:
Learn to be kind to yourself. It is important to have acceptance of yourself.
Spend time with people who make you feel good.
Avoid comparing yourself with others.
Seek professional help.
