How can I improve my mental perspective?
Hello, this is my first time posting on r/advice so please bare with me..
I'm 16F and I struggle with how I see my body. I am average weight for my age (according to google) but it doesn't seem that way. NOTE: I am NOT fishing for compliments, I am trying to get advice and even coping mechanisms on how I see myself so I can handle this in a healthy way and just overall improve how I see myself. All of my friends are very skinny like super models and most people at my school are too. I feel like im always subconciously comparing myself to others and everytime I look in the mirror my body just looks different. For example, I feel fine before school and sometimes even dig how I look but then I get to school and I just feel visibly more upset and uncomfortable with my body, mainly my stomach. I don't think I'm fat but sometimes I do feel like I just look gross compared to others. I just genuinley need some ways to deal with this feeling because having this voice in my head constantly pointing out that I look bigger than my friends is so mentally straining and exhausting. Again please don't think Im just tryna get compliments I dont want to seem that way. Any advice/help is welcomed and thanks for taking the time to read this, I also felt like I needed to get this off my chest since I've never had the courage to say this to anyone outloud/inperson.
Edit: If this helps, I live in the U.S.
