I've noticed that there are several stories throughout this site of people that have experienced bad results from their plastic surgery. I had a rhinoplasty four years ago and since then I have not been able to cope with life the way I used to because of the outcome. I noticed that several people on the rhinoplasty forum as well as some other forums have been dealing with the same thing. I have been in therapy and on meds but I just don't feel as if anyone in the psych field understands, because it's a cosmetic procedure. I was just wondering if anyone had success with therapy from bad plastic surgery results and how it helped them. I know I have made progress in the four years because in the beginning I could not get out of bed and now I enjoy getting my day going even though I hate how the rhinoplasty made my face look. My life has changed dramatically however and it has been devastating. I have told some professionals in tears how this has affected me and they just are indifferent, without understanding or compassion. I think its because of the idea of cosmetic procedures being elective and thought of as kind of shallow in some ways...although we all want to look our best. I've been told things like "people with chronic pain can't change their life either" like as if I must live with this...I mean I understand that this is my life now. I haven't even really accepted this yet...anyway it's just been an extremely difficult four years and I don't know how much longer my life will be like this...I feel very alone and without support.
