Saw a post on Reddit the other day, it was an unconventional way of dealing with dysphoria.
The post basically said to take pictures of yourself and then trace the outlines of your own body. And to be honest, this was a pretty big confidence boost ๐Ÿ˜†

I've posted these pictures before, on this account. I don't like these pictures at all tbh. I may be completely blind, but I just don't see it...
I honestly have no idea why this worked any better, but it did! A lot better!

Here are the pictures

I was NOT about to trace the exact outline of my hair in the second one (I have a life, you know), so I just used a mask ๐Ÿ˜†
GIMP FTW!

Also, that black rectangle is a mirror, if you couldn't tell ๐Ÿ˜‚

This is...actually me. This is what I look like...
And I don't mind that. I'm actually really okay with that.

Girls, this might be completely crazy, but give it a try! It may help temporarily, it might not help at all...
But I was pleasantly surprised with the results.

Until next time, cuties ๐Ÿฉท

Edit: God I suck at drawing anything tho
