Advice Wanted I don’t want to feel stuck on my body anymore. I am exhausted.

I suspect some of my perspective has been amplified by certain life factors (severe abandonment issues, diagnosed OCD).. however, in general I have tried to come to terms with the fact that I don’t have that attractive of a body type, by both societal and “biological” standards. Unfortunately, my disdain for myself has often left me bedridden and fearful to leave the house. I have been in therapy, tried different meds, try to eat more satiating meals, see an herbalist and go to the gym. But every day is still so frightening to me, and I think “I would hate for anyone to see me!” I would like any advice, especially anything “unorthodox” or unique that has helped you personally. I know I’ll never love everything about my body, but I’d like to be able to at least tolerate it so I can go back to living in my purpose..

Thanks!
