Can someone please talk me down
Hi everyone, so I had an upper bleph a couple of days ago and I’m experiencing some anxiety.
I’ve wanted to have this done for over ten years and finally took the plunge. I already have better peripheral vision and I can’t wait not to have all that skin weighing down on my eyes! My husband and parents have been supportive but I’ve been second guessing myself. I have a 5yo daughter and I’ve been worrying I’m not a good role model and might be reinforcing unrealistic expectations or not modeling acceptance. I’ve felt like I have to justify my decision.
Some of this is stemming from comments made by other people such as ‘if you get surgery I’ll slap you’ (no contact to that person any more!) and ‘was it really that necessary?’
I still have swelling and bruising and I’m just starting to freak out.
Anything positive would be really appreciated right now!
