Women lads are a strange people, agreed

Do any gulls have advice on coping with a really unfortunate / ugly face? I'm saving up to get a rhinoplasty, cheek reduction, and something to fix my hairline, but it's going to be a long time til I can afford those things. In the meantime how do I cope from day to day? Any and all advice is welcome.

I've attracted the attention of many infamous lolitas/lolitas that cgl has had long lasting issues with. I can't name names but whoever you guess is probably right.

I'm friends with a few but I can't tell anybody about it because I don't want to be associated with their dramu. It's really weird and I don't know how I attracted all of these people, I'm pretty nice and normal.

>been drinking a lot lately to numb feelings, chronic pain, and get through the last of my law finals
>gain weight over holiday season
>been on fast track to fitting every dream dress ever with diet and exercise
>fit newest purchase but not exactly the way I’d like

>mfw is pic related

I’m making a resolution before Christmas to stop this functioning alcoholism gulls. I will beat this. Pls wish me luck.

Impulse bought a bunch of fancy foods, that was half my spare BlackFriday money down the drain. I can't believe i went whole ham over some goddamn takoyaki and taiyaki.

I know some people have this weird empathy problem with feeling bad for inanimate objects. I just feel stupid for feeling bad about that when I have no headwear. That should be a priority.

>haven't been able to handle any stress in past because I'm generally too anxious
>see psychologist on spring, she assures me it's possible I don't need further help with my anxiety attacks during fall when I start school
>school starts smoothly
>decide to postpone getting an appointment in school health care bc of the psychologist
>mistake
>can feel the worst possible anxiety creeping in
>major social exhaustion
>worried I will fuck up school
>even lolita purchases make me anxious and feel guilty
>cool meet ups coming up but so tired just cry of the thougth
>mfw the mental health care of my school is absolutely crammed but can't go elsewhere
No matter how hard I try I just can't be a decent part of the society. Seriously, if I fail this school I will end myself bc then I have literally nothing left besides lolita and I don't want to be just a burdain and failure. I would do it now but there is too good stuff coming in mail and coords I want to wear.

>be a total fucking doormat
>can't literally say no
>also I get really easily exhausted especially if I have to be social
>agree to do a some kind of interview about lolita (not anything big, just someone's school project)
>not photogenic, can't speak, don't want to do it at all
>have been regretting it before I said yes
>also started at university this fall
>almost dead from anxiety and social exhaustion
>trying to also loose weight and have serious dysmorphia and feel like I'm only getting fatter and uglier
>bf has been really weird lately and informed me I'm a consuming person
>probably going to dumb me eventually
I wish I'm still alive by the winter. There is so much lolita I want to wear and I seriously want to improve myself and it includes fucking learning to say no and choosing my own well being over others'. And I absolutely love my field.
