Body shaming jokes are often heard as something ordinary and funny. Nickname based on physical appearance seems to be a daily food in human relations. Without them knowing the significant effect behind the jokes that they consider hilarious, it turns out to reduce self-confidence and self-esteem for those who are mocked. Although not necessarily all victims can be affected by the nickname, for people who tend to be sensitive, it really will affect their psychological condition, especially if the body shaming treatment is done repeatedly and continuously.
Based on the experience of a male friend who happens to have a disproportionately less physical form for his age. His weight exceeds the reasonable limit, so it is often dubbed fat and ugly. Since childhood, he has been consuming these suggestions which have resulted in a growing sense of inferiority in adolescence and adult age at this time. When he entered the workforce, he still believed that fat and ugly labels were worthy of him. He becomes a person who does not respect himself, hates his appearance, and has a problematic partner. I accidentally knew the background of the story behind his insecure attitude through his heartache after being bullied in his work environment.
It turns out that the impact of bullying in the verbal form is so hard. Influence the mind to the mentality of someone who is NOT guilty. I was also surprised why many people still like to ridicule other people's physical forms as jokes, even though they seem trivial, they can be categorized as a form of crime.
In some countries, laws have been implemented on body shaming that occurs on social media. Everyone intentionally and without the right to distribute and/or transmit and/or make access to electronic information and/or electronic documents that have content of insult and/or defamation can be subject to criminal penalties.
Unfortunately, even though the law has been enacted in the Law, body shaming continues to occur everywhere. The best key to ward off adverse effects body shaming is in our own hands. Are we going to believe the other person's opinion of us and bring that suggestion to death? The assumption of others who are disparaging, and demeaning us is like sea water that sinks a leaky boat. When we decide to close the hole that caused the leak, we can use sea water to get to the destination.
When we choose not to allow bad suggestions to enter our minds, so long as we will be fine, it is precisely the insults and insults that will whet our enthusiasm to be more advanced.
I was once bullied with a story that was almost the same as what my friends experienced, except that I rebelled. I always give lessons to my bully by fighting, and his name is also my elementary school child. However, as I grow older, I am increasingly aware that violence does not solve problems, and I know that I cannot control other people's behavior toward me. Finally, I decided to control myself by saying simple suggestions every day before going to sleep at night. The recommendation reads:
"I am beautiful!".
I said the simple sentence until it became a habit, which I forgot how many years had passed. Do you believe what will happen after that? I feel that I am not as bad as people say to me, even I who was initially embarrassed by the appearance became more confident just like that. Also, strangely, the people around me feel things that I've never expected. Starting much say I am beautiful. Even though I only took care of myself naturally and looked better than my style during elementary school.
After I searched it, it turned out that what I had been thinking about myself had been called self-hypnosis. The effect was that I became convinced of the suggestion that I planted it. Have you ever heard of an expression that says that what we feel will come from the outside so that other people can participate in seeing and feeling it? Now that's what the Law of Attraction is called, guys! So based on my experience, this law of law can break the sense of inferiority caused by body shaming that I've experienced so far.
