Self respect is something I lack Self love is something I wish I had Fit is something I may not be, body confidence is something I wish I could see If loving others is so easy, then why can’t I love myself? Just looking at them and seeing how happy they are is deteriorating to my mental health Toxicity is something I hate but being toxic towards myself is one of my worst traits Looking in the mirror with all the self hate, just because I gained a bit of weight Social media is sometimes terror, not being good enough for everyone else makes me feel like I’m a big error Almost like I shouldn’t be here.. Self acceptance really is a big fear, for others it’s written off as not such a big deal.. Can’t you see me try? I’m trying so hard to love myself.. and it’s a constant battle even tho I know I should just give in and let happiness win It’s easy to hate what you see.. but it’s even harder to visualize and love the person you could be, take it from me...

Hey, I totally understand what you are going through. I do get that self-love and self-care are a bit difficult. it does feel like everyone is handling everything so well, but in reality, we are all going through our own battles. I am sure you can pull through this! Message me if you would like to. Take care! ❤

And your poem is great! Good work by expressing with creativity!
