Try to move beyond guilt, anger, and blame: Some people are bogged down in guilt, anger, and blame. They feel guilty and blame themselves because they think they caused their appearance problem or wasted their life by being so focused on their looks. Others blame other people, such as a surgeon who operated on them or people they think made fun of how they look. For some people, the guilt, blame, and anger are so paralyzing that they don’t even try to get better.
