Body image
Between the ages of 16 and 25 our bodies go through a number of physical changes and this can make us more conscious of our appearance.
The media typically present men as being tall, handsome, slim, muscled and, apart from the occasional love bite, having no skin blemishes at all.
Not measuring up to this image can get us down – but of course in reality very few people actually look like Brad Pitt.
Instead of getting hung up about what we think we should look like it’s probably best to concentrate on appreciating ourselves for what we are.
