I would like to thank everyone for their encouragment.

I've decided to talk about my edited post so others that may feel the same, can see that they are not alone with self-indenity issues.


Regarding my edited post earlier. I deleted my post to conceal my identity (because of my worry and that I posted information regarding my fall schedule). I posted that I am concerned with my weight compared to others during rush. I struggle reguarily with such thoughts, and recently have tried becoming more healthy. I had posted that I am scared that my weight will make me stand out from other girls. I am not ashamed of myself, but I do compare myself to other girls reguarly not just with weight, but with style/brand of clothes, personality, etc. Those that have told me to be myself and not to worry, have been so welcomed and helpful. I've realized that to be happy, I need to not worry so much and show others see me but the type of personality and qualities that I possess. I am excited about next week, especially that others have shared their experiences with me.

Thank you again for those that have sent encouraging words.
