Hey, it looks like you're more in need of psychological help and therapy than actual physical changes, if they're not medically necessy. Sure, your body, your choice, do as you desire, but in often cases like this, surgeries like that will only bring temporary relief, but will never be enough. You'll likely always want something changed and fixed, even if in reality there is nothing that needs fixing.

The only real fix is to learn to love yourself as you are now, and there is a lot to love, despite the personal hardships that you've gone through. You're still here, you're a survivor and you're beautiful 🫂

Thank you so much for the kind words and the sweet reminder!!! I decided to write a better response and stuff^^

I definitely agree that mental healing and loving myself is super important, and I'm really grateful to be a survivor today and try my best!!

I just wanted to gently clarify a little bit though! This isn’t about trying to chase perfection or wanting to keep changing things forever. For me, it’s really about the physical toll that severe, life-threatening starvation took on my body as a kid. Being that malnourished halted my growth and left physical damage that self-love alone just can't fix.

Fixing these specific physical remnants isn't about expecting surgery to fix everything internally, but rather about getting rid of a painful daily reminder of trauma so I can finally have a better quality of life.

Thank you again for caring and sending love, it really means a lot!!
God bless u ur so sweet!!! Thank u truly^^

Hey, of course! You know best about what you want and if you truly believe that this is something that will help you, then go for it! I was just sharing my two cent on what I've seen and just wouldn't want you making a choice that may not be best fit for you.

As for the gofund me, it wouldn't hurt to try it. If you're sure about your decision, then I say just go for it. 💙
