>question if whether or not you see the same thing as others
I don't look that great Im not terrible looking by any means but I'm still extremely unhappy with where I am at.
Do my eyes betray me? Am I seeing the same person in the mirror!? How do others see me? I want to die.

I get the same anon. normies tell me "wow you are buff" and shit but I honestly look terrible.
I guess I did make some little gains but it's nothing compared to what I want.
Probably our goals are just much higher than what normies see anon. It's easier to see what you don't have and how you want to be rather than see what you already have
welcome to nattydom
Should I just jump onto a sarms cycle? I just want to see me at my best

OP here that is it exactly, within 8 months I have made excellent results visible abs but I'm just not hard or my skin isn't as tightly wrapped around my muscles as I want it to be. I want to be completely vascular 24/7 while being buff.
I wonder if its my goals but surely they see what I see in the mirror. I must admit some people I thought that where somewhat buff seem pretty like nothing now.
Feels like I will never know if I look good esepcially when I look into the mirror and Im extremely unhappy with what I see. Will it ever be enough?
I talk to some people and they look into the mirror without a single thought of good and bad but me.. I look and can only see flaws and dissapointment.
Tonight I will lift until I die or pass out.

If you look at yourself each day in the mirror, while you are growing bigger muscles. You will slowly shift your perception of what is normal, without realizing.
So a normal person might see it as his senses are still tied to the normal. Though if we look at other men here on /fit/, we will only think that th more muscly ones are actually build. That is why we also have these weird standards on weights. Even if you lift weights, and can outdo pretty much 95% of all men in real life, people here will still call you weak.

Because you are still weak
You don't see yourself in the mirror like others see you. There's a way to see how you really look like though. The way is to have a real photographer to take a picture of you in natural lightning. That's how other people see you.
