I hear this so often now that I’m home all the time. “You need to get out, you’ll feel better.”  “Go for a walk, you’ll feel better.”  And so on.  My question is why will this make me feel better?  I go out and feel worse more often than not.  It’s summertime.  It’s hot out.  Everyone is wearing t-shirts and halter tops.  I can’t.  Or I should say I won’t.  I don’t want people to see that I’ve only got one boob.  So I wear loose shirts, layered, to add bulk where I need it.  No.  “Get out, you’ll feel better.” doesn’t work.  It makes me feel worse.  I  prefer to stay home.  Where I don’t feel self-conscious about what’s going on, and I don’t have to answer questions and I don’t have to talk about it.  I’m having enough of an issue with this smoking/not smoking thing to add to it with wishing I looked normal too.
