I would like you to read and then share your thoughts..
Any explaining on my question is, facially, i've been recessed due to environmental and unfortunate circumstances I was unaware of. And also I believe my orthodontist was unaware of when I was 16. I am now 20. I had known about facial development in a puberty sense before coming to this site, but it has made me very aware of my case. Quite frankly, I do need surgery if I want to realise my dreams.
Like I said I am recessed, my maxilla is recessed and my mandible is only slightly recessed. I have a higher than average gonial angle, and slight downward growth. It is more than likely due to improper breathing and tounge posture, but that is only minimal because I don't really carry any of the "mouth breather" traits. I've had TMJ since a kid, and my orthodontist (in my opinion) restricted further facial growth by not widening my palate. But, it isn't "over". I would say I am still an attractive guy, I have a handful of good physical traits that recieves compliments and I know what I am but I know what I'm not. I know what I could have been, if my face developed "normally" I am a reasonable man and understand how much your appearance has on your interactions with life. That is what strips me of my confience, self esteem, and sometimes perception. Recently I have been dealing with facial body dismorphia. The quote from Ultron in "Avengers: Age of Ultron" can often send me into a depressed mood, "I was meant to be new, I was meant to be beautiful" because I know my ideas aren't being listened to the best they could because of the way I look, I have the product but I can't communicate the product. I want to help the world and change it for the better.
My question being would it be acceptable to work hard, save money on the side for surgeries aswell as for important things and just completely not "go out" or partake in any socialising. I still play sports (basketball, football, touch rugby) but am considering this lifestyle.
This is my first original thread, I've lurked really on this site for sometime before recently making an account. I can share a laugh and take a joke on here but I would like someone else's thoughts. Any thoughts please!
