How I Started Accepting My Naked Body

(Guest Body Image Blog)

The Narrative Of The Semi Naked College Bash That Helped In Accepting My Naked Body:

Accepting My Nude Body - I have always been self conscious about my body. I was never able to walk around comfortably at school for anxiety about being made fun of. My body was something to be hidden, black and god forbid - shown in public.

During high school, I started working on enhancing my self esteem. I worked on my positive affirmations and I told myself everyday that I was beautiful, even if I did not believe it. As the days turned into weeks, I started to find that looking at my naked body in the mirror was becoming easier. I began to feel more and more comfortable being nude (by myself). Having said that, thinking of someone else seeing my naked body was still not an option. All this changed once I got to college.

Taking My Naked Body

When I started school, I felt overwhelmed by the number of folks I considered amazing. It seemed like everyone was lean, confident and appealing. How was https://troyxxx.com/tube/nudist/free-pics-of-young-naturist-pageant.php going to live here???

I discussed with some close friends about the problem. My friends asked me what I thought of individuals who didn't do their make up every morning or who weren't thin enough to be a model. I told them I didn't think any differently of them and that they were only people in my experience. My friends asked me why I thought that people would think otherwise of me. I didn't have an answer.

Then it came to me Most people do not care what you look like. And if they do, who cares! If they did not like my appearance, they didn't have to appear. After that, my confidence grew. It was a slow process, but it was working.

I 'd never been comfortable attending celebrations at my university. So many of them were pajama parties, panties celebrations and perhaps even naked parties. If I was just starting to feel comfortable looking at my nude body, how was I going to reveal it to anyone else?

Afterward came the day after I was invited into a faculty Halloween bash. The flyer said "less is more if you know what I am talking about." My friends had helped me so much in raising my self-esteem that I believed, "why not!" That night, I had my first experience with social nudity. I wore some risque lingerie as my Halloween costume. Nearly everything was revealing! I was afraid people were going to look at me like some sort of freak. I was scared they were going to laugh and tell me to go home. But they did not. Just about everyone else was dressed like I was. Some were even totally nude and a few were covered in nothing but body paint. They were all just having a great time - partying and laughing. It was a great evening. https://kazyz.com/tube/nudism/free-young-russian-nudists.php left the party feeling more confident than ever. My naked body, or at least most of it, was seen by strangers, yet no one laughed or ran away in horror.

I do not know if I will ever rid myself of my body image issues. Nor am I sure that I will ever have the capacity to look at my naked body with complete recognition. What I do understand is that my first experience with public nudity was a enjoyable one. One that helped me in my on-going process of raising my self esteem and self- https://nudismpictures.net/tube (if not "body love").
