I just had my rhinoplasty... I feel awful

By Jeremy78 on 06 May 2011

I believe I didn't think about it enough, and I'm feeling awfully bad. I am thirty yo male, who just had his nose done this morning... all my life I've heard all my friends and family saying people having cosmetic surgery are "wrong" ...I didn't even tell my parents I would, or my gf... now I'm in a hotel, looking like a raccoon , she's mad at me and I haven't told my parents or friends a thing... and with a whole buch of questions in my head, in pain and I think repented. Help!

many ppl have sacrificed themeselves for others, Thinking that when they sacrifice themselves they are being a good person. Wrong! To sacrifice yourslef can only come from thoughts of absolute lack, because it is saying "there is not enough for everyone, so I will go without"Those feelings do not feel good and will eventually lead to resentment. There is abundance for everybody and it is in each person's responsibility to summon their own desires. You cannot summon for another person because you cannot think and feel for another. YOUR JOB IS YOU. When you make feeling good a priority, that magnificent frequency will radiate and touch everyone close to you. To everyone wanting to get rhinoplasty do it for you! You will never be able to please everyone so don't worry about what others will think.

Same, here- how did it go with the parents for anyone who had this issue? I live with my boyfriend 4 hours away from my parents (who I see a few times a year). I didn't tell them I was having this done and am going home in a month or two.

Hey, worried2, how did it go with the parents? I will be in the same spot soon. Hope it all went well.

Deciding to have Plastic surgery is already such a hard decission to make without having to fear that people are going to judge you for it. I hope you starting to feel better now? I had rhinoplasty 8 days ago and am going through a similar thing I told no one but my husband.

Oh no! The first day is the worst and, with all that negative feedback about plastic surgery, I'm not surprised that you're feeling so guilty. Please try not to. You obviously disliked your nose enough to seek out this procedure (as did I, once upon a time), and in time you will most likely be happier with your nose.

Things can seem pretty bleak and drastic when you're bruised and bandaged, but you will heal and most people probably won't even notice that you had anything done--which can be both a blessing and a curse :)
