So ive discovered LM at 13, but i didnt do anything to improve my face because at the time, i didnt really care, but now i do, alot, now im 16 and i thought i improved my looks by a landslide, but i still find It hard to look myself in public mirrors or any reflective surface, and people in my class still find me ugly, which makes me wonder if i even look better at all, this is genuinely being such a major problem in my life because my self-esteem is at all time low, has anyone else experienced this? If so what do you do?
 
I felt the exact same way back then. But do you think I gave up? No, I didn't. I felt something ignite within me, anger, hate, but not toward anyone else, just toward myself. So, I hit the gym, started doing chin tucks and neck curls, ate a ton, and got palate expanders and braces (yes, all at 16).

Now that I'm 17, you wouldn't believe the difference. I actually get compliments now. People even call me "daddy" (as a joke, obviously, but nobody would have ever made those kinds of jokes before). Don't give up. We're just teenagers trying to better ourselves. You have to be patient. Trust me, I've had girls tell me that if they knew I’d end up looking like this, they would have dated me.
