It's really important to have a good body image, isn't it? Because of this, many teens believe that they would be happier if they were thinner, taller or shorter, or if they had curly hair, a smaller nose, longer legs. Feeling good about yourself often affects the way you act. A person with a good self-image makes friends more easily, recognises their mistakes and learns from them, and generally enjoys their life more. Young people often compare themselves to others, like to their friends and even to celebrities on TV. Everyone is different. You can't change your height or your shoe size, for example, so there's no point worrying about things like that. Then, if there are things you want to change about yourself, like wanting to lose some weight or become healthier, you should take small steps every day to reach your goals.
Most people wish they could change something about themselves, but sometimes poor body image can become a very big problem and a teenager can become very depressed. If this happens, you must talk to a parent, a teacher or an adult you trust, or even call a teen helpline. Remember that adults were all teens once, and they probably know exactly how you feel.
