    Default self esteem/ self image

    I know a lot of women have issues with the way they look, but I think I go beyond "normal". In the past, I have always had to have a little push from alcohol to do anything intimate. Iam now with someone who I love VERY much, and is very understanding of my issues. However, I think it is going to eventually push my partner away from me. We've talked about it, and she says she loves me either way, but I guess it all has to do with my self doubt. I wish I could love myself the way I love her. It's putting stress on our relationship, because I keep thinking she's going to leave for someone prettier.
    I can't look in the mirror more than a few seconds without crying.... I get compliments, and I know people mean them.... but in the back of my head I'm thinking they feel sorry for me and are just trying to make me feel better....
    Does anyone have any ideas as to herbal remedies or exercises I could do to help?!!?

    So, If I tell you I just looked at your profile, noted your picture and think that you are attractive and that I have no reason to say so what so ever, so I am not being nice, would you consider believing me?

    Because it's true.

    I do feel that chamamile tea and even green tea calms a person and in-securities can come more so when we feel a bit over weight, or aren't happy with our hair, but at the end of the day we are human and female, so therefore, emotional creatures...

    If your girlfriend went out with you and is with you, then she found you attractive, that's a fact.

    So, take the doubts out of your mind and concentrate on smiling each time you look in the mirror re-thinking that above line.

    you must believe!
