I unfortunately look a lot older than what I am, and because of that, I’ve experienced a lot of people online making fun of any picture of me that was posted online, I’ve also had people making very derogatory comments about me and my age online too. At first these comments shattered my self esteem and gave me depression.
However now, after two years, these comments don’t bother me at all. They have no affect on me. Sometimes, I respond to the comments with my own age-related, self depreciative jokes. The comments don’t make me sad, angry or ashamed anymore.
How did my brain go from feeling depressed and ashamed reading these comments online to my current “I don’t really care lol” state of mind?

Before you just looked old, now youre actually old enough to not give a hoot what other people think.
