If someone else suggested this, that's cool (I usually don't read responses on some threads before I reply, so pardon a repeat if that happens.)
Suggestion to fix it? Find and do something that makes you swell up with confidence. Something that grows cojones for you. Something that makes you feel good about that little body that seems not big enough. Confidence building. Self-accepting.
For me it was learning lampworking (using a torch to melt glass and create glass beads.) I got into it hot and heavy, and it grew my sense of accomplishment. It had nothing to do with my body, it wasn't exercise (which some do) but it was self-esteem building. it was VERY HEALING in ways I couldn't have imagined when I started it. I look back now and it was a KEY to facing just what you're facing.
You'll find your zen (pun intended) Find something you're very interested in learning, a new skill, and do it.
