What causes poor body image?

Poor body image is primarily caused by cultural exposure to narrow appearance ideals, social comparison, childhood comments about appearance (from family, peers, or media), and internalisation of the belief that body worth equals personal worth. Social media amplifies all these factors. It is a cultural condition far more than a personal one.

How do I stop hating my body?

Research supports a gradual shift from "body positivity" (feeling good about your body) to "body neutrality" (not judging your body at all — it is a vehicle, not an identity). Practical steps: curate your social media, stop appearance commentary (about yourself and others), move your body for how it feels rather than how it looks, and join communities that normalise body diversity.
