I've really been struggling the past few days. Worrying that I'm screwing it all up... Feeling like I'm just not good enough to succeed... Knowing that at the end of it all, I'm still going to be ugly, and people are going to wonder why I bothered. Ugh, I just want to crawl into bed and pull the covers over my head for the rest of the day.

Thanks, for the words of wisdom, Miss Mac. After posting this, I did end up getting back in bed and slept for a couple of hours (with a dog curled up next to me) and felt a little better when I woke up. I have a session with my regular therapist on Monday. We're going to have a lot to talk about! Luckily, the people in my life who know about my surgery are actually very supportive, I just tend to assume that everyone is as critical of me as I am.

Whats makes you think you cant succeed ? Why not ? Pro football player Russell Wilson ( Seattle Seahawks) said his dad always said "why not you ?" when talking about his interest in becoming a pro football player. So, why not you ? You have every reason to be successful, you have lots of family support, and you gave a good therapist to help you through the tough times. I think you'll do great ! You can do this, and you're NOT ugly ! And you wont be when you reach goal either ! Having a positive mindset will get you alot further than a negitive one ! Good luck !!
