I felt ugly all last week. teh only thing I can suggest is making yourself feel pretty by doing something small, even if it's just paitnign your nails or something.

yes, i know all about the ugly days. they're often my worst enemy. and being around a lot of people doesn't make the situation any easier.

i still have trouble dealing with them, but i've found that just getting up and doing little things can seem to make them fade away. sometimes painting your nails while listening to your favorite music is good, or finding a close friend and having some random meaningless, but hilarious conversation can help a bunch. i like reading fantasy books too, so often i can just open a good one and get lost in it, forgetting about how bad i felt before.

i know this stuff doesn't work all the time, but it's a start. hope this helps.

many hugs,

Chloe
