I just never feel confident, I'm so glad i have found this webstie because nobody i know truely understands what its like. Any advice on how to overcome the lack of self asteem?

Hi Amy! I know exactly how you feel. I felt the same way in high school. Kids were making fun of me since I was about 5, actually. Kids are so freakin' cruel, man. They have ruined my self-esteem Now, though, I'm starting to embrace who I am. And you also have to surround yourself with good people; people that accept you and love you for who you are. For the past couple of years I've been reevaluating things, and now I have people around me that care about me and support me. My best friends are like my brothers and sisters, I can't live without them. They've helped me get through so much, both with the PCOS and the thyroid problems, but with personal issues as well. You gotta have that good inner circle because when you have people like that, you can do anything
