It's a shame you can't buy confidence...

Hey guys, 

I know I normally blog about make up and fashion but I've been feeling a bit crappy lately about myself so thought I'd write a blog about it incase anyone else is going through the same thing and can relate or has been through it and can help others get over it! 

So I've never been confident to be honest, I always thought my friends were prettier than me and they always got attention whereas I didn't and if I did I would shrug it off as I thought they were just taking the mick. 

The end of last year my confidence started to pick up and I felt happier in my body, I don't know whether its because of things that were happening that made me feel like it but it made me feel good and happy. However, lately I've noticed my confidence has gone back down again and I'm starting to feel like I used to which to be honest isn't great. 

It's weird how it takes such a long time to build up confidence and it takes a matter of minutes to knock it down again. 

If anyone has gone through this please message me so I can start to feel better about myself with any tips you may have, if you are going through this please message me and hopefully we can help each other! 

I saw on This Morning once that they got people to write down what they didn't like about themselves on a bit of paper and they got someone else to read it out the them, they then had to write down 3 things they liked about themselves and the guy that read out the negatives then read out the positives along with the 'negatives' however they were also turned into positives so soon enough the girls confidence went up. I don't know if this would work for anyone but you never know. 

Also another thing I've seen before is when you wake up in the morning you smile to yourself for 20 seconds, you might feel like an idiot but apparently this works too. 

Let me know if any of these work for you and also on any tips! 

Thanks for reading :)
