I hate myself why am i so ugly all i can do is just isolate myself in my room and drink my water.and think about how old I’m getting but everything is still the same i wish i had friends or just someone to talk to that could understand me
I am so sorry you feel this way about yourself. I am glad you reached out to 2ndfloor though. I can suggest a few things to try. It sounds like your self esteem could use a boost. I would suggest trying some positive affirmations. If you say them when you wake up and throughout the day, they could make you feel more positive. Here are a list of some: https://www.yourlifeyourvoice.org//pages/tip-101-positive-things-to-say-to-myself.aspx?
I would also suggest speaking to the counselor at school. Sometimes just getting it out helps and maybe she/he could suggest some ways of making friends too.

It’s hard to be happy all the time and hard to not be frustrated at life. But better times are always around the corner. Be gentle with yourself and try to do little things that you can enjoy like writing or listening to music. Sometime just doing something to help someone else can make you feel a little better.
I hope you're feeling a bit better today. I read that watching the same show regularly, like The Simpsons, can actually help with emotional regulation and provide comfort. It’s interesting how familiar stories and characters can offer us a sense of stability and reassurance. Maybe try it
