Guys…. I feel so ugly these days

Idk who to talk to. It used to be easy to take care of myself. Do my hair do some makeup have some clean clothes that were flattering. Now I look in the mirror and it seems like I’ve aged tremendously, any clothes fit weirdly, doing my hair is so difficult because i have curly hair and it’s thinning +frizzy so anything I do doesn’t look good. Even putting on makeup doesn’t make me feel like I used to feel. I know this is superficial, but I miss “feeling beautiful”. My husband says I am beautiful but I can’t help but feel like shit when I see a younger or a more put together woman. I compare myself and the reality is like….. damn. I definitely don’t look like that. Also I’m finding it so hard to clean and keep up with laundry and keeping my home clutter free. I know this isn’t the most positive post but I’m struggling a bit. Does anyone else feel this way? What helps you?

OMG. I’m struggling with this exactly. I definitely teared up reading this. I use to feel so pretty and it use to be so simple.. I know I’ll never be the same but to feel some type of normal would definitely feel nice. I got dressed and hung out last weekend for the first time in 2 years and I still did not feel myself and definitely didn’t feel beautiful. My PP hair strands wouldn’t even lay down and it took over all my confidence the whole night. I’ve asked so many women when does this part pass.. 😮‍💨 You’re not alone.

@Ten thank you for sharing that and responding. Yea, it’s hard. I think I just have to push myself to get out more too. Maybe that will make me feel more normal. Who knows 💙

Ugh, this exactly. All I see are wrinkles and the tiny frizzy baby hairs around my forehead and ears that just stick out from PP and I hate it. You are definitely NOT ALONE. I try to surround myself with other moms and coworkers that can relate and make me feel better. I try to focus on the amazing rainbow baby I have too ❤️
