With all this talk of loving yourself etc, I'd like to take the opportunity to ask if anyone else has wild variance on their appearance?

I'm tricked into looking at myself every day when I brush my teeth or use the toilet. Some days I'll see a dashing handsome Disney type guy like Gaston or something, but other days its a properly ugly guy whos been homeless and unwashed for just a little too long

It'll flip back and forth too in the space of a day or two. I'm vaguely aware that itll probably be connected to self-esteem and confidence and the like, but i dont find myself actually aware of any mental changes outside of that.

Similar for weight when I catch myself in the window reflection. Sometimes I'm an opera singer and sometimes I look pretty buff. Again, no physical changes, same reflection same week.

Is this pretty normal?

Pretty normal for me. For myself in the mirror, I can see a tall strong man or a short squat chump. True for how I see other folks as well, depending on how I might feel/how they might have been behaving..

When I wake up I have really nice hair for about 30 minutes before it turns itself messy.

Same for me. It basically tracks how happy/content i am in general. I just ignore it and assume im the decent looking version.
