Everytime I’m sad or smth I get told it’s because of hormones or „period“ my parents genuinely don’t take me serious.If I tell them why I’m insecure or what makes me sad,they just say I’m too self focused eg.looks and that I’m crazy,or ask what other „uglier“ people should do(I don’t want to offend anyone)how can I break that circle? I don’t always think abt my looks or smth I also don’t want to be selfcentered,but it’s besides being good at school everything I have since I don’t rly have a big social life

to be honest they might be right. While it isn't very productive to simmer over these thought without looking for actual solutions, they are inching you towards the right direction. Try to engage in something that puts you besides yourself, art, writing, studying a subject, a work that creates worth outside yourself. This could help you not only feel more in touch / secure with yourself, but also learn more about the world around you and be in touch with others more, as well as be useful in the future if you were to go forward in life with what you were to engage in. Social life is not everything there is.

They're just crazy, your concerns are completely valid. They tell us we care too much about our looks yet they're the ones pushing the standards onto us. They tell us it's because of hormones or period, which isn't completely false, but just because a girl is sad, doesn't mean it's related to her hormones. If you parents don't take you seriously, don't take them seriously either. I very much hate those who blame everything on a girl's menstrual cycle, focus on improving yourself, who cares about being self-centered? In your life, you are your main character. You should be self-centered, just not so self-centered that you hurt others

So you would just take more hormones or what are you trying to say?

prioritize yourself girl
comiing from someone who used to be extremely insecure, time passes and eventually you start feeling better. But it usually doesnt come ijust by sitting around and waiting.

my parents dont really consider my feelings, but that shouldnt be a reason to let myself fall lower nor should it be a reason for me to stop caring

if you care about it then it doesnt matter what someone may say

look at yourself and look for flaws
as bad as it sounds
i noticed flaws and i started working on them
“enhancing them”
maybe diff haircut, diff way of soing makeup, avoiding specific habits/ foods
whatever you may believe affects your looks the most

try searching for a style rhat makes u feel like ur own individual, which makes you want to embrace yourself more.

i can only recommend you to avoid believing anything ur parents tell you when you know it only has a negative impact.

i cant help too much but it gets better as you try to reach for a certain goal

Nah as a girl i can relate 😔 i get how u feel. Whenever im in a bad mood asw it js get blamed on hormones and it feels so dismissive, doesnt it?

What i learnt is that telling parents how u feel abt ur looks isnt rly the best thing ever, often parents dont listen to how their children feel.

Wish i could help u but idk how to help myself with this situation either. Ur not alone tho
