the serenity prayer

FYI, I tried turning it over to God, but couldn't get over my nerves, so i have made an appointment for laser removal. My hubby is not happy, but I'm killing myself so this is my only option.

I'm so sorry that this is bothering you enough that you feel that you have to have it removed. I would have thought that where you put it and how often it would have been covered up that it wouldn't have bothered you very much but I do know that it's hard sometimes to get things out of your head. Sometimes it's like we nag ourselves! {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}

thank you ladies & you are right it's all in my head & i've tried to be rational about it but that's not working. I'm not sleeping, I don't have an appetite & when I do force myself to eat I throw up.....like i just did. I am visible thinner since sunday & i don't have that much to lose. I have to do this or I'll waste away. I'm trying to get over it now, because i am solving the problem. with anyluck it will be gone or signicantly faded by summer & be a non issue. I'll know more once i talk to the plastic surgen. Hopefully, taking these steps will be enough to get me over the hump. Please keep me in your prayers. I wish i woulda never gotten the dumb thing, but now that it's there this seems to be my only option. Please pray that i can keep food down.

Do what your instincts tell you! Only you know what goes on inside of yourself.

Keep us posted, and good luck with the laser.

Maybe you should talk to your doctor about some medicine for anxiety just to help you for a few days.

Pony I am so sorry that you are so stressed over your tattoo. Like Janet and the rest had mentioned it wasn't such a big deal considering the location you have it. But like Judy said you know your instincts better than we do. If you are truly unhappy and making yourself sick and you can remediate the problem then do so.

Thank you for sharing the prayer that is one of my favorites and at the moment I have a full plate and this prayer always makes me feel so much better.. Glad to hear that Logan is back to normal.
