I realized I'm embarassed in public. I shuffle when I walk and kind of sway funny. My face has an almost constant dazed expression, making me look tired and away. I think I've always had an active face. You know what that is: the sort of face that can be read. Now my face is awkward and unresponsive and it scares me....makes me feel ugly. I'm pretty sure other people avoid talking to me.
As your friend, I need to tell you that I hope you get over this right away. It doesn't do you any good. You are noticing yourself more than anyone else is. The people who know you and love you don't care two pennies whether you shuffle or sway, and the people who don't know you don't matter. You just be YOU, and let the chips fall where they may. Love you!
