Now I'm smiling, and a bit misty.

I sometimes wish I was Dinah. :) I think in person I'm anxious and stiff and tend to say all the wrong things. People tend to think I'm a snob. And of course, there's the unfortunate physical appearance. Part of which I can't help. Part of it I could help if I tried. I never try. For some reason it's even worse with mental health professionals. My therapist says they get the feeling they need to fix me, when really they don't.

I should be happy that he appreciates me now. I am in fact. And of course I'm very happy Babble is in my life. I've even found an IRL social group of very accepting people who look past the surface stuff. I even have a husband who sees the occasionally handsome girl I was overlaid on what I am now.

With any luck I'll never have to find another therapist.

Ok, I'll officially give myself a little slap right now, and end my feeling sorry for myself. I'm really the most fortunate of souls.

Thank you you guys, for reminding me of that.
