I was supposed to be the shining one in our entire family... The one who was successful and beautiful and perfect. Even my grandparents would say stuff about any aspect of my life they didn't think I was doing well enough in... "You look a little pudgy." "Why are you having a hard time in your class"<BR/>Just... extreme pressure.<BR/><BR/>They controlled most of my life, but this is something I can control... And now that college is over and I'm NOT as successful as they and I had hoped, I feel more pressure to look better because I want to still be that shining one.Plum Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346389870327339369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3861621932117443599.post-55386905501663571642009-03-06T14:30:00.000-08:002009-03-06T14:30:00.000-08:00I think you're totally right.

And if I can't, it's a personal fail. <BR/><BR/>We're more than perfectionists, because we expect better of ourselves than we expect from everyone else. <BR/><BR/>Sorry things didn't go well for you today, but thanks for a great post!!Savory Sweethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01854692427283938498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3861621932117443599.post-59752699388979000342009-03-06T13:37:00.000-08:002009-03-06T13:37:00.000-08:00This comment resonates with me:If I suck at everyt...This comment resonates with me:<BR/><BR/>If I suck at everything else, at least i am in complete control of my body. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Being thin trumps everything, it is the. most. important. thing.Lady Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10133205645769913972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3861621932117443599.post-50361105634716156492009-03-06T01:19:00.000-08:002009-03-06T01:19:00.000-08:00Gosh, you utterly summed up my feelings.

I was given the best possible education that money could buy, and the best possibly start in life I could imagine. Which re-enforces the guilt and anxiety. I feel I have no right or reason to feel this way. It is a catch-22. <BR/><BR/>From the outside my life must look pretty perfect, and I hate that down to me, on the inside it is a long way from that. So I need to be in control of me, and be the epitome of 'me' so I feel more deserving of my life.<BR/><BR/>I really hope everything is going well for you today,<BR/><BR/>Much love,<BR/><BR/>Ella xxshimmery slippershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16614647199606355091noreply@blogger.com
