Bypassing the Ugly

There is no way to sugar coat how ugly I look right now. My eyes are inflamed / bulging and leaking, my face is slightly swollen, I have things in my nose and my lip gloss left glitter on parts of my face that will take time to remove.

I am overweight and not at a good BMI either. I don't think I am ugly, I truly know I am not attractive in ANY capacity right now.

My appearance is not well enough to interview for a job.

I would not feel comfortable looking this bad during video calls. I would put up a photo prior to my Thyroid Eye Disease or other thyroid issues.

There is nothing I can do either. This medical condition is uncertain and it may take up to three years to get out of this active phase. I saw numerous specialists and I got tired of paying for it.

My treatments options are limited and I don't feel encouraged to get treatment either.

Ugly is just something that I will have to daily live with.
