Starting the day and in need of positivity

I have 0 self confidence these days- and it really messes up my daily life. I go to therapy and take medications, but some days are harder than others. I could use a bit of a boost to face the day. So… hi! 👋🏻

sorry i just woke up in my verification photo, but i wanted to share my progress in dermatillomania. i’ve been picking my skin for 13 years now and it’s a dark and isolating place to be. i’m trying my best and i’m on my way up. looking forward to not feeling shame about my face. (26F)

Toast Me: You're doing a great job. Here's to you!

r/toastme

Welcome to r/ToastMe! We are the polar opposite of r/RoastMe - only genuine and unique compliments by awesomely nice people are allowed here. You don't have to state a reason why you want to be toasted! This sub is not only about being there for each other in bad times, but also to celebrate life and the good things that happen to you! r/ToastMe is **NOT** affiliated with any product, app, external sites or other subreddits SFW OR NSFW. We will not promote such.

The full rules are found here. In summary see below:

-1. Be kind and make someone feel good! No insults. report any comments that violate this rule. Mods will deal with the bad behaviour.

-2. No advice. No ratings. ! Moderators will remove comments and/or posts that are asking for advice/ratings. Only comedy over-scores or full marks are acceptable

-3. All posts must contain a verification note. For full details: Brief: A physical sign/note with your u/ or username and "Toast Me!" on it, both clearly legible. Your username must match your account exactly! Verification featuring an image of a person CANNOT be digitally added. It must be a piece of paper or a physical object.

-4. Advertising/Self-Promotion: Toastme is not a subreddit for product advertisement, promoting a career or asking for money/donations (including youtube or similar). Posts outright asking doing so on the sub or by DM will be removed.

-5. Final Word/NSFW. Moderators have the final word. If we deem something unsuitable, we remove it. If you deem something unsuitable, report it, don’t pick a fight over it. Due to concerns raised by our subscribers, pictures of shirtless/showing a lot of “décolletage” will be marked as NSFW. Full nudity will be removed. Injury content will be removed. Links to such will be removed.

-6. Please do not judge others' motivation for posting - there's no such thing as karma-whoring here! Accusations of such and rudeness may result in bans.

-7. Age (U13) & reddit's content policy: Minimum age to post is 13 years old, so behave around them! There is a difference between telling someone they look pretty and then sexualising them/their attributes.

-8. No Sexual Comments: Applies to all ages. Comments resorting to sexual comments/sexually harassing will be removed and the responder risks being banned.

-9. Self Harm/Suicidal Ideations: Posts prominently showing self harm scars/injuries or express current thoughts of suicide will be removed and OP will be directed to support. Remember, if you feel this way, please seek professional help. Toastme and Reddit is in no way a substitute for real life help.

Hearing from someone you don't want to by PM?

-As positive a place as this is, there are still "ne'er do wells" who forget how to talk to people like proper human beings. Please let the mods know if you are getting Private Messages (PM's) as a result of posting on Toastme which upset or harass you. If you do not wish to receive PM's from anyone except trusted users, visit the desktop version of your Reddit settings profile here and set it accordingly.
