Answer

Hi there,

You are very welcome to Ask Pat.

You are saying that you are feeling fat and ugly. It sounds like you are feeling very down at the moment and we are glad that you contacted us.

Maybe there is something going on for you that has you feeling that way,
and you would have the right to talk to a trusted adult about how you are feeling. You have the right to get help and support and it is okay to ask for help.

Childline would be concerned that you are having feelings like that and it sounds like you are being a little hard on yourself.

It might help also if you contacted us on our 24 hour listening phone service at 1800 66 66 66. We are always here to listen to you and we would never judge you. We also have a text service that is open every day at 10.00am until 4.00am, and by texting to 50101 you can have your chat by text. There is also information available on these websites that you might find useful www.yourmentalhealth.ie and www.bodywhys.ie

Take care and bye for now,
Pat
