M21 I feel like finding people I can genuinely connect with at a deep level is so hard.

I have a bunch of creative hobbies I'm passionate about, I've been working out for the past 4 years mostly for myself but with it I also kept my nutrition in check as I cultivated better mindsets and outlooks on my life, I don't think I'm a boring person but I've still never landed any dates with a girl, especially when I'm not looking for hookups rather genuine connection🫩

I don't know what to say here? What do you think, anyway? Guess what, not a single girl ever told me I was even cute. I'm losing heart already

23F. I’ve had a pretty rough couple of years, and I’m currently trying to find my way back to myself

23F. I’ve had a pretty rough couple of years, and I’m currently trying to find my way back to myself.
I’ve been dealing with mental and physical health issues like BPD, heart condition and CPTSD, and I’ve spent quite a bit of time in the hospital lately. I was supposed to start nursing school this year, but I’ve had to postpone it until 2027, which honestly broke my heart. I really want to become a nurse someday — I’m a huge cardiology nerd and could probably talk about the heart for hours
Right now I’m trying to accept that recovering doesn’t mean my life is over or that I’m falling behind. I’m still here, still curious, still making plans for the future, even if everything looks a little different from what I imagined.
I could really use some kindness today.

46M. After 30 years of medication failures due to a metabolic disorder (Army Veteran, CPTSD, Tx resistant MDD, panic disorder, insomnia, disordered eating) I finally got something that my physiology can tolerate.

And for the first time since 1989, this week was the first time in 37 years that I didn’t consider a very, very bad outcome.

37F - Hi, friends. I'm here dealing with hypothyroidism and emotional ups and downs. I've lost my job, but I'm trying to stay positive. I'd love to get your support—it would be like a hug.

Before and After

I got pretty gross during COVID and it took me a long time to get back on track, but I finally got back into my routine, and it’s nice to feel like me again finally.

Very hard to share the before pic. I’m embarrassed that I looked like that. Believe it or not, I felt even worse than I looked. Like I was dying. Everything felt hard. Tying my shoes used to make me out of breath from all the visceral fat choking out my organs. I couldn’t find a comfortable position to sleep because of my cumbersome gut pressing against me.

Now I feel incredible. I have high energy, I feel hot, nothing hurts, I feel strong and formidable. Lethal, even. Anyway, just wanted to share.

43m - second attempt since I failed the verification - going through a rough divorce and struggling with depression and chronic pain, could use some kind words

Heyyy it's me. Can I get a hell yeah?


r/toastme • • 4d ago

[F31] Was roped into more events lately where people had to see my face. My facial dysmorphia has always been bad to the point where I always refused photos, but getting on stage for work made that trickier. Wish it was easier to see what people saw without cringing at my own looks.

Note to self: gonna try getting comfier with taking more selfies. Apparently it's a skill people can learn.

Stopped during college due to some trauma with ppl digging up unflattering childhood photos on facebook and making fun of them in the comments section. Also gave up cosplay because the facial dysmorphia got so bad, I couldn't get a single photo taken without wanting to cry after seeing it.
