...See more My girlfriend left me two months ago, but it still doesn't feel real. I've known her since I was 8, and I really thought we were going to spend our lives together. I love her beyond anything. I don't know what to do now. I just think about her all the time, I can't enjoy anything. I wish she'd come back, because I really don't think I can live without her. We went through so much together, and I can't believe she's just gone. I don't know how to go on
Need some advice

...See more So I'm going to return to school for a new academic year next week. Since the first day I joined this school, I've constantly worn a mask due to anxiety about my appearance. No one at my school has ever seen my face without a mask. Right now, I'm considering whether or not I should continue this; even the thought of others seeing my face makes my heart race. Some people at my school also aren't the nicest, so there is a realistic chance someone would make a hurtful remark about my appearance since they know it's an insecurity, and that would be devastating to me. However, at some point in my life I'll have to stop wearing a mask, so is it better to just rip off the bandaid now? Always wearing a mask also affects my social life, as people find it harder to connect with me and I have to hide in the bathroom to eat during lunchtime. I also worry that I'm reinforcing my own appearance anxiety by allowing myself to hide my appearance. Thank you for any advice!
