Looksmaxing ruined my life. I found out about looksmaxing in 2023 whilst on tiktok. I am not a very pretty girl, i'd say average at best, and i'd already spiralled down a bit of a rabbit hole for beauty standards prior to my discovery. I have tried everything to become more beautiful: subliminals, manifesting, working out, makeup, gua sha, etc. but I still can't shake that dread that creeps within me when I look in the mirror. I look fine in photos and in the mirror, but the second someone takes a photo of me I look vile. looksmaxing helped me realise that a lot of my features aren't biologically optimised, but at my age I think the only fix to my disgusting face is surgery that i'm way too broke for. I see beautiful girls everywhere why the fuck do I have to be an anomaly. I want to be complimented and loved for who I am too. why do I need to ascend in order to be even looked at as human?
