ITT: Vent about your physical attributes that you dislike.
How have they affected your life? Are you considering treatment? How do you cope with it in general?
Share with other anons and maybe feel a bit better.

What is it that makes you "ugly" though? If it is all things you can't change it is fucked.
Are you beyond caring and fine with being khv and neet or would you want to improve?>>28740433
How bad is your benis situation though anon? Do not believe all the memes you see on here

I used to have a crippling fear of balding around when I turned 18. Used minoxidil and finasteride for over a year before realizing how doing that for the rest of my life would be awful. Now I only occasionally have "episodes" where I worry about balding with a lot of stress. Eventhough my family tells me I am crazy since they don't see it, I do and the fear somewhat remains because I don't have the head to be bald. I cope by trying to stay relaxed and not think about it, but when I see men, especially old men with perfect hairlines and shit it still makes me envious.

My face and thin wrists.
>Are you beyond caring and fine with being khv and neet or would you want to improve?
I'd certainly like to improve but there isn't much that can be done in this situation.
>How bad is your benis situation though anon?
Fine down there, 8 inches erect.

>but when I see men, especially old men with perfect hairlines and shit it still makes me envious.

I think that is pretty normal desu, most people have something they hate seeing other people enjoying. For many of us on here its happy couples much younger than ourselves.

Hair receeding at the age of 19, hairline is shitty in general. It makes me bitter and lowers my self-esteem quite a lot, it just makes me feel like a lesser person. Currently trying finasteride.

Two major attributes that keep me from living a happy life.

Double Chin -- I'm not even fucking fat, yet I have a double chin. When I look in the mirror I don't ever see it, yet I have it in every picture I've taken in the last 3yrs. It's fucked.

Extra Long Foreskin -- When my dick is flaccid, my foreskin basically extends 2" past the head. If a girl ever saw it, I know they'd be grossed out. It looks halfway normal when hard I guess.

Overall, I got pretty lucky with the physical genetics. I'm pretty damn short, but I've been told plenty of times that I'm really good-looking (plus I've been working out lately), so I'm pretty sure it's balanced out.

My insecurity is about my hyperhidrosis. For those who don't know, it's a condition where your hands, feet, and/or other areas of your body sweat, often profusely, without any of the expected stimuli (heat, anxiety, etc.) I'll be going about my day, feeling fine, and then my hands start sweating, regardless of the temperature or what I've been thinking about.

Whenever someone goes to shake my hands, I either hope they don't react noticeably to the warm damp of my hand, or give silent thanks when my hand happens to be dry. My feet, ass, and crotch sweat like this, too, so no matter what the weather, I leave enormous sweat stains in my underwear -- not that anybody would see that, but it always makes me wonder if it's visible through the pants, too.

I cringe internally whenever someone wants to shake my hand or give me a high-five, and I'm humiliated by the thought of having sex and the girl asking my why I don't touch her (or of actually touching her, and her recoiling in disgust, and why wouldn't she?).

I leave sweat stains on every book or piece of paper I touch. When I hand something to someone, I just wait until they look at the thing in their hand, wondering why it's so wet. When I go for a job interview, I watch the supervisor's face tighten up when they take my hand in theirs. I take a deep breath when, on occasion, someone straight-up asks me why the hell my hands are wet. I never lie, because what else could I tell them that could be less off-putting than the truth?

TL;DR I have a condition that causes excessive sweating of my hands, feet, ass and crotch.

>>28740337
I'm really self concious about my neck. I always feel like it is really long and that I have forward head posture. I'm pretty certain I don't, and I look fine- but thrown into a social situation, I revert back to introspection which is just really not fun. It's retarded, honestly. It's funny because I've been finishing therapy which was to try and fix things with another insecurity (among other things), and I've just moved on to the next. It's sad but really quite funny I suppose. It's not about actually trying to change anything about you physically, but becoming content with what you are and not letting what you are change who you are.

I've started doing shrugs. But I'm pretty skinny anyway, so it is more of an attribute of that. Working towards change, though- and that's the main thing.
I don't have motivation, but I have self-discipline.

Really sucks anon. I'm sorry for you.

If I were you, I would go bald. Sounds stupid- but honestly, bald looks better than patchy.
And to be honest, if you bulk up and start working out- bald doesn't look bad at all. Actually looks pretty badass
>>
>>28740337
Eyebrow connects in the middle. Although I've somewhat learned how to live with it I still feel bad sometimes because I know people stare at it.
Almost no muscles because never lifted heavy things.
Very thin forearms.
I guess that's it. I'm not kissless at least, and already dated two girls although I didn't have the chance to get my dick wet. I guess being above six feet tall and kind of a cool person is enough to get around in life.

There's a lot I don't like about my appearance. Balding, dark spots under my eyes, crooked nose.

I'm broke as fuck so I plan to buy surgical equipment to correct them myself. I've watched a lot of videos of the procedures and most of them seem pretty straight forward. My biggest concern is infection and bad products, so I'm gonna do test surgeries on non-critical parts of my body beforehand to see if it will be safe.

I will post any fuckups here.
>>
It seems that shortness, acne and balding are the most common causes of insecurity for the anons here.
Acne should be the easiest to treat of those things, although if it prevails I imagine that would make the feel even worse.

Height and balding however is just a cruel and useless stroke of bad luck genetically speaking. I do wonder if balding will ever be fixed my science.

For any anons worrying about their benissize, both memes, whether it is all or totally non important are wrong.

I hate my wide hips so fucking much.
I actually like my body for the most part but those fucking hips make me look like a women.
I could seriously REEEEE when I see guys with nice slime hips and a great upper body in the gym, while I can get as big as I want and I will still look like a klinefelter retard.

>>28740337
>Attributes
Widow's peak
Thinning hair
Cheekbones and jawline not as strong as I'd like
Wouldn't mind being ~2 inches taller
Wouldn't mind some extra dick girth
Want to get ottermode, currently skinny long distance runner mode

>How have they affected your life?
Widows peak has caused some stress, but it's not super obvious with my hairstyle. It stops me from experimenting with some hairstyles because they just wouldn't work.
Thinning hair isn't super noticeable yet either.
Cheekbones and jawline are ok.
Height is still fine.
Dick girth is just my personal aesthetic preference.
I don't remember to eat so I don't get gainz.

>Treatment
Considered hair plugs but the $$$$$ are fucked. I don't want to be dependent on drugs for my hair either. Alternatives seem to be weird poultices and large amounts of scalp massaging. I'll probably try the 20 min massage a day thing at some point depending on how insecure I get.
Chewing a shit tonne of gum and doing face exercises to build facial muscles.
Short of cracking my legs open and implanting steel for extra height I guess I could see a chiro for posture every few months. Also wearing shoes with slight heels and thick socks.
Jelqing for dick girth gains with some nice results.
Setting alarms for meals so I remember to eat because years of vydia has made hunger not work properly.

>Cope
I have a bit of insecurity regarding masculinity, but I make sure it doesn't manifest in obnoxious behaviour. I'm trying to figure out how to give less of a shit about that. Googling that shit right now.
>>
>>28740545
I'm trying to explore options to prep my head for baldness. Mostly it seems to be light stubble and getting /fit/ as fuck.
>>
>nose

It's one of those odd ones where for the most part is normal and straight, but on the left side of the bridge, there is a small bump. It makes it looked hooked at certain angles and I was teased for it constantly. I now wear glasses that hide it well.
>stretch marks

I grew out of nowhere when I was 16/17 and left all these stretch marks on areas that didn't even grow that much. I think they're gross.
>dark eye circles

Just from genetics and lack of sleep, I guess. Either way, they look ugly.
>>
>>28740337

Mild phimosis (can't pull back foreskin when im erect, too tight. Can still do it while flaccid so no risk of hygiene related infection)
>How have they affected your life?
Makes sex less enjoyable, makes me insecure during sex.
>Are you considering treatment?
Yes, I can get a tool of sorts to help stretch the foreskin, or get a partial circumcision.
>How do you cope with it in general?
Pretty well. I can masturbate without any problems.
>>
>>28740810

Go bald, dude. given that you dont have a weird shaped skull, itll look good and manly.
>>
>>28740337

General issues with hair type and later on balding.
>How have they affected your life?
My appearance can range between normal and homeless kid. I've never learned how to use gel, as retarded as that sounds, so my hair tends to be wild, frizzy, and unkempt. People on the street tend to react me with fear or become unsettled. Obviously it's hurt me with women.
> Are you considering treatment?
Now that I'm balding, it's gotten worse but I still won't seek treatment. My father has suggested I go bald, but it's too much maintenance.
> How do you cope with it in general?
I just try to comb as best as possible, but windy days are hell. Haircuts also help, but I've also struggled to find a haircut I like. As superficial as it sounds, my shitty hair is probably a main cause of my low confidence.

Also, big nose, lips, weird shaped eyes, and perpetual belly fat are bothersome but that's another story.

I'm overrall okay, I don't have much insecurities about miself, but..
>Big ass
>Small hands
>Small feet

The thing is, I don't feel that bad about this because I have broad shoulders -which can compensate my big ass-, strong forearms -for small hands, and long legs -for the small feet-.

I don't know, we have to be happy with ourselves, even if we can't find good things by youself, other people will, our eyes can be deceive by our own stupidity, someone else's might not.

I've had severe acne ever since middle school and I've come to terms with having it for the rest of my life. I've tried a variety of medications, and they'll work for as long as you can afford to keep buying them. Now I just use OTC creams in moderation and keep my face as clean as possible. It's better than it was, but I'll always have a blotchy, crater face from years of cystic acne hell. I just avoid having my picture taken and dab my face with a clean towel when it gets too oily
I can't wear tanks because of backne and it's all over my chest too, but at this point, I've given up having any meaningful relationship so it doesn't really bother me so much because it's easier to hide

>>28740337

Circumcised, ballsack too long. Those are really the only ones I'm insecure about. Pretty happy with the way I look other than that.

>How have they affected your life
Less sexual pleasure, kind of uncomfortable when I sit in the wrong position for too long, silently holding a grudge against my parents for paying a kike to cut off part of my penis, hate Jews

About the ballsack thing, I have a thing for chastity play and tried it with an ex-gf, but was disappointed when I found out how easy it was to escape the device. That's about the only major impact it had on my life.

>Are you considering treatment
Stretching my foreskin back slowly. If they ever figure out that regeneration thing, I'm getting that treatment for sure.

>How do you cope with it in general
For the circumcision thing, see above. For the ballsack thing, I just thank god I was born male because if I was a girl, I'd be a roastie for sure.

I'm 5'8 manlet. I'd say I'm decent looking besides my height so it really sucks, if I was 5'10, just a few more inches taller, I'd be perfectly fine. Unfortunately there's no treatment for being a manlet, but I get solace in the fact that there are other manlets around me so it's not as if I'm the shortest person wherever I go. It hasn't affected my life directly but damn if it doesnt hurt my confidence.
