When going for a walk is actually an incredibly stressful experience… walking down the street I feel like everyone’s staring at me, thinking how hideously ugly I am, laughing at me with their friends. I especially hate walking past bars or places where cool, attractive people my age are. 2 years ago I would have been there myself, and now I have to stare at the ground with my face burning from shame as I walk past them. 




Obviously I know rationally that no one has the time to even notice me or care, but I literally feel so self-conscious of my face and/or hair and atm body as well, every step is horrible. I have to go for a long walk every day now because I got a dog. And I can confirm it DOES. NOT. HELP!!!
