Couple of months after 2nd tattoo removal session

Finally I have some free time to write something about my tattoo removal journey. For the last couple of months I was really busy, I was working a lot and I even forgot that I had tattoo regret lol. I didn't have any removal sessions and I plan to have one maybe in winter, when it'll be more comfortable to cover it. So, I'll just show, how my tattoo looks now.

Nearly 1 month after 2nd treatment.

So, here is my progress after second treatment. I think that it's obvious.
Also, I decided to take longer breaks between sessions. It's summer now, so the healing process will be really uncomfortable. I plan to have next session in September.
As I wrote previously, I had a huge tattoo regret, depression and anxiety. All day long the only thing I could do is searchig tattoo removal photos and trying to convince myself that it is possible and I don't have to suffer because of regret for whole my life.
Now, I'm trying to stay positive and I don't hide my tattoo anymore.
I insistently recommend you to read a book by Dale Carnegie "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living", it helped me a lot.
Remember, that tattoos are not forever any more and f*ck the regret. This thing is ruining your life, do you want your life to be ruined by some stupid ink? I guess not.
Never forget to love yourself, you are all worth it.

Some thoughts.

Last six months were very hard for me. You know, they say you should get a tattoo, when you're happy. I wasn't happy, when I got mine. I really wanted it, I haven't got a single thought that I would regret it, but I did. I don't know why this happened, but I really hated them. I was depressed, nervous, my level of anxiety went extremely high. I barely could eat and sleep. When I woke up, I thought maybe it's a dream and I don't have any tattoos, but they still were there. In a couple of weeks after I got my tattos and was feeling upset, my grandfather suddenly past away. It was horrible, I don't know how I literally lived through this. I was eating once a day, crying a lot, I lost weight and got some health problems. After some time, I understood that I can't deal it with myself and I decided to go to the psychoterapist. I'm having therapy for a couple of months now, it's not a big term, but I definitely see some results. I'm trying to think in a positive way generally and about my tatto removal process too. It's just a tattoo, why this ink under my skin should control my life? Why should I feel upset because of it? Okay, I made a mistake and who doesn't? I know, that I will get rid of it after some time. Luckily, we are not in 18th century. So, I try to do my best to stay calm, eat regularly, take vitamins and drink water.
If you're struggling from a tattoo regret, don't be silent, speak about it. Remember, that you can get rid of it, just don't overthink too much.
