[@simbameanslion4346]

I'm not gonna lie, that irritated me. They're pretty much telling you to have no self worth. Don't give to other people, they don't need it. Don't love yourself, because there's always someone better than you. Be ashamed of your image, because you're lazy. There's no point in being a good person, because your boss only sees you for your work, and doesn't appreciate you as a person. Don't set up goals, don't have dreams. (reasons unclear) And lastly, once you get a certain age, it's time to give up your confidence completely because you're wrinkly and not worthy of love. It's totally toxic advice. It's kinda telling you to have a negative outlook on life. Lets hope that someone with depression or anxiety doesn't come across it. You are a great person, no matter your age, or your body type. Don't compare yourself to others, love yourself and love your life! EDIT: I just watched this video again cuz, I actually don't know why. I just wanted to. And WOW. Why. Bright Side. Why. You are making life seem so negative. Any kids that may have read that probably DREAD adulthood now. I don't know if that was your intention but GEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZ

A counter to "there is someone out there who is better than you" is a Hemingway quote I keep in mind when I start feeling insecure about my art, or come down with a bad case of the "betterthans." "There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man. True nobility is being superior to your former self."

[@annikan42]

Oh I love this. Thank you for sharing!

[@paranoiarpincess]

@@annikan42 I am so glad. This quote literally changed my life. I used to be so self conscious about my art and I never thought my writing was good enough to ever go anywhere with it. Then I heard the quote, and gained the confidence to just write. At the time, it was NaNoWriMo, a writing event where the community gets together in November to write an entire novel over the month of November, every year. By the end of November, I had hit the event's word goal, and had three days left over, so I got in a huge chunk more. I did complete my first ever novel that year. I kept writing too, and the next year, not only did I go on to write a good 12+ short stories, but I went on to get EIGHT OF THEM PUBLISHED! I now have a shelf in my bookcase dedicated to short story anthologies I am actually in! And they're not self published either. I kept pushing myself to be better than no one but yesterday's me, and I succeeded! I even have some reviews of a few of the books, picking my story out specifically, to highlight as one of the reader's favourites! And I don't mean that as I'm happy I am coming out on top, I mean that as I was able to rise above my weaknesses and made work that actually stood out. I'm sorry I'm babbling your ear off, but I tell a lot of people this quote, really hoping it will inspire them as much as it had me, and you're one of the first people to react in a way I feel aligns with how I felt, more than anyone to date. Thank you for that, it really makes me feel as though I've made some kind of difference ♡. I hope you use this quote to go on and do something amazing, something you didn't have the faith in yourself to do before! Fly friend! Use every plateau you hit as a launching point instead of a limitation!

As someone who has been a size small model, even then I had "body rolls". We are people, not dolls, a lot of the time I see people hating on their rolls, or double chin, etc. It's just because your skin needs to be big enough to stretch to the full extent of your muscles and bones, so when it isn't stretched out, and makes squishy parts. It's like fabric bunching up.

Jokes aside, this article is a pure garbage. They made up a whole ass definition for bodypositivity themselves which is completely effing wrong

[@snakewithapen5489]

Ikr? It's complete pessimistic clickbait trash. I've always thought that body positivity wasn't about saying that every body type is healthy, but saying that all humans deserve to be treated with respect and not shamed regardless of what body type they have. Being severely overweight or underweight is objectively not healthy, but that shouldn't diminish your value as a person or your ability to be loved. And you can't really tell someone's health status or if they're trying to be healthier just by looking at them anyway (and being visibly very skinny isn't objectively healthy either! As a clinically underweight person, it freaks me out a bit that society seems to have this awfully harmful image of a tiny perfect body), if you're not their doctor, so that's not an excuse to fatshame.

@Aberdeen Harder Unfortunately i have seen plenty of exactly that. You try to help someone, but they get annoyed.

Either way that just reinforces the feeling of "i don't want to help anyone ever again" and makes you look like a jerk to people who _want_ your help. In the end the anxiety is still there.

Even if you dont always succeed, that fact of you trying is already self care. Oh a side note, the current body positively movement isnt really something most people should follow are its is today. It's extremely toxic and echo chambery, and will actually get you way more into self hate than if you just followed the concept of it (which is to love yourself for who you are), and also hate other people in it for certain.... like losing weight or being on the low end of being plus size.
