...See more Hey guys I don't know who will read this or who replies but I honestly just need a place to speak about this, I greatly appreciate some advice A bit about me m i'm a 21 year old female 5.7 ft tall, and weigh 64kgs So here's the story I've been going to the gym for well over a year now training 5 days a week an hour and a half each session I work full time 5 days 8 hours in childcare, and basically I hate my body, I've found myself over the past few months progressively more and more hating my body, looking at myself picking apart every little insecurity I have, I have avarage bust, avarage waist but no hips, big thighs and really prominent hip dips, I absolutely despise and am disgusted by my hip dips I wish everyday I didn't have them and I had nice hips, my stomach sticks out and I try so so hard to make it not do that because I hate it, I look at Instagram models who've achieved the slim thick look in weeks and I've been trying for a year it brings me to tears everytime I see myself I try to enjoy sweet foods and treats but I cant, everytime I do I have mental breakdowns about my body and how it's gonna look after eating them, I buy so so many clothes I spendtoo much money on clothing to try to feel like I'm worth it Please help me :(

...See more My Boyfriend and I have been together for nearly 6 years, I'm 21 and he's 22 Lately we've been talking about moving out together for the first time I need some advice on this because I am in two heads about it I love my parents I'm attached to them i know how to do things on my own but I'm Afraid of loosing their company by moving out I love their company it's a sense of security for me But at the same time it's very hard to only see my partner on weekends and it's hard to be intimate due to lack of privacy and time, it's getting even harder where some weekends we can't be intimate I know at some stage I want to move out with my partner to move forward in our relationship and rekindle lost feelings due to lack of privacy but I'm really unsure of how to deal with my anxiety over missing my parents and taking that big new step Thank you to anyone for your advice

Justifying my self love

...See more I'm not sure if this is the right place to talk about this but here we go So a little context, I'm a 20 year old female I work in long day care I've been in a relationship for 5 and a half years, my work isn't treating me right and they have favouritism between staff therefore I do everything and get blamed for everything other staff in my room are very lazy but my boss favourites them so it never comes back on them. I've had some big struggles in my relationship with my partner lying to me and cheating on my heart by flirting with other woman, he has a lot of female friends (this is important) and some recent ongoing health struggles. I need help with self love, I buy so many clothes to justify my self love, I put such high standards on myself and i don't feel good enough most of the time, I do so much work at the gym and am obsessed with it, I'm obsessed with eating right and I'm obsessed with buying clothes all of this can be put down to my feelings of wanting to compete with everyone, especially wanting to compete with my boyfriends female friends, and try to feel like I am enough thanks to work always indirectly telling me I'm not, I try to practice self love to settle these behaviours down but I don't know where to start Thank you to anyone who reads and responds
