Hi Forum for I struggle with mental illness and now I am getting feelings I am ugly and unattractive. It makes me feel low and hurt. Depression may cause these negative feelings. Maybe it is oppression and strongholds. I just want to be seen as a handsome guy and not receive negative looks and think of myself as someone that no women like. Thank You for prayer - Iggy
 
I am sorry you struggle with mental I.. Ness and depression.
Do you have medication and are you taking it.
If you Don please seek medical help.

You are fortunate, women are not fixated on looks, yes they like a handsome guy, but they also want an able, intelligent, emotional guy who can do things, talk and understand there feelings.
Do follow the bibles advice and concentrate on the positive things in your life, rather than imaginary flaws, praise God for the many blessings you have.
 
Hey All,
SupporterOfCristo, God don't make ugly. Nowhere in Genesis 1 does it say, "God
created . . . and it was ugly." Don't believe the lies of the enemy.

Are you a member of a church? If so, I would recommend you call the elders and have them anoint you with oil and pray with you per James 5:13-16. I believe I have talked to you about this in another thread. Please ask your pastor for help with this.
Keep walking everybody. May God bless,
Taz

Go after ugly women.
 
Hey All,
Go after ugly women.

Not nice either. Do you know how many people are dealing with self- esteem issues? Look at the cosmetics section of the store. Everyone is beautiful in their own way. (That's an old B.J.Thomas song.)
That post didn't come from prayerful consideration. I love a good joke as much as anyone. That was neither good nor a joke.
Keep walking everybody. May God bless,

there many things you can do to look better there are finding them some are in books finding what looks good on you not fads but this is only good when your feeling good in side you could find a great outfit but if you not happy inside by having jesus in side of you than all the rest is nothing. some one can say somthing crual to you even if you look like million dollars or you yourself can look at yourself looking that good and feel cheap or or if your feeling low can be discussed with yourself you can't go by feelings your they come and go one minute were happy one min sad finding jesus by reading the bible and find someone who can help you. what i know this I've looked real good and know one seemes to care or it doesn't even bring attention. there are scriptures on helping other people its more like if you help a situation and after if you can see that by helping in the situation that it would of not happened without your help like if a friend needed to make dinner for 6 and if you hadn't help it wouldn't have happened its not so you can feel good oh i helped! it knowing that you helped made it happen and people were happy because of it or if someone has a lot of bags to bring up to flights of stars and you helpped them bags didn't fall milk didn't break and they got up stairs safely
 
Hi 👋

I was in fact ugly. Ugh 😑 God has seen fit to make me not ugly. True story…

Make sure to get sufficient nutrients and take care of skin and hair. I take loads of vitamins and extra antioxidants. Skin care is basic in my world 🌎…decent face wash moisturizer when needed and occasional exfoliation. Sounds girly but the exfoliation really really helps especially after 35ish. It’s more about skin health and such than anything else.

Hair…ugh lol 😆 mine grew back from very thinning to very thick. Honestly?!?! I think 🤔 using salicylic acid shampoo 🧴 is part of the reason my hair is thick now. It basically exfoliates the scalp and gets rid of junk.

I have some distant relatives who have gone under the knife. I dunno 🤷‍♂️ not bad results. I think a few of them reached the point of diminishing returns. They don’t look bad but doing more didn’t yield much in the way of returns after awhile.

Ok ✅ I just put this here because it’s not fun to think and feel that way and everyone tries to boost your ego or sell you stuff or tell you to toughen up when you probably need a mix of prayer 🙏 and action.

You are beautiful, my darling, beautiful beyond words. Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair falls in waves, like a flock of goats winding down the slopes of Gilead.
Song of Songs 4:1 NLT. Hey Sam here. I've felt the same way and it really sucks. Sometimes we tend to focus on our outward appearance and forget about our inwards condition. Now when I say this plz don't take it the wrong way ,but just focus on GOD. There will always be attractive people that come by and feelings will come and go. But just know that you have to change yourself to appeal to them ,cause if you do after a while you'll come to find you've lost yourself. When you just focus on how GOD sees you (as I can say from experience) life get a lot brighter. Certain spirits come because satan knows that if we were to reach even half the potential GOD has for us then they have a more powerful enemy. So please whenever you feel "ugly" or "unattractive" remember these 3 things. #1 The Bible says you are beautiful/handsome (Song of Songs 4:1). #2 GOD doesn't create "ugly" people. And #3 GOD has given us courage, fearlessness, and power (2 Timothy 1:7). So that means satan wants to give us the opposite of these things. Overall if you don't feel loved or attractive know this you got GOD,me,my friends, and the entire body of Christ that does so walk with confidence. Stay blessed 🙌🏿.
 
Every culture and age in time has their own perseception on beauty. Everyone is beautiful and handsome. You can't love your neighbor if you can't love your self and respect yourself. Don't cut yourself short. Not self absorbing, but being confident is attractive. Don't you worry about it. Practice good hygiene and be yourself. I can't tell you how many times people have crushes on people who would have never guessed it. It's true. Sometimes people are just intimated or shy. It doesn't matter what you think you look like, somewhere out there when you least expect it. She'll come along just don't isolate or hate yourself. Good grief She'll come along. I've seen it happen plenty of times to men. Just pursue your interests and you'll find common interests with others and be yourself. Don't try to fit or fix people. She's out there. I promise. Just keep pursuing your dreams.
 
For ex
My friend married a guy with weird ears in my thought, but she thinks it's hot. I'm happy she found him, the love of her life. So don't be so hard on yourself.
