I look like I'm 16 but am actually in my late 30s. It's not easy. I get questioned about my age and am always told I look like a kid. It takes away my dignity and self-confidence. I want to be taken seriously but it's hard to with how I am always treated and looked at. And then today, everyone gets the size shirt they requested at church but I'm petite and I'm the only one with such a large oversized shirt. It is incredibly embarrassing. So now I will look even more young. Nothing I do makes me look older. HOW DO I ACCEPT MY APPEARANCE?!?! I bury all my sadness and now I've exploded into tears.
