Is it normal to have shock/denial/regret after Rhinoplasty? How long does it take for patients to adjust to their new look?

I am 18 and just had rhinoplasty done a little over a week ago. My splint was removed yesterday. It looks great especially considering how recently the procedure has been done. I do like my new nose that has a feminine curve on the bridge and is much narrower without a droopy tip as it was before, but when I look in the mirror I look so different I can't believe it's me and it make me sad as if I'm not the same person. Is it normal for people to experience this type of dysmorphia.
