How long until these scars heal?



Backstory

Physical? Psychological?
I'd like to think I'd still have neither at this point, but alas, I still do.

We all do. If you don't, you haven't lived.

Scars may fade but they will always remain.

MO_Thoughts2 says,

They will always be there. Some will be less obvious. But you still deal with them. Conquer them. Embrace them.

HopeInPain says,

Normally I've learned to just live with and around them, and at times use them as a sign of strength, but in a couple of weeks I have a chance to start over with a nearly completely clean slate, and I'm worried that I'm going to feel like I still have them weighing me down.

maryjane31 says,

Learn from the past but leave it behind you. Walk forward and do the best you can. Remember "worry" is a negative emotion that serves no purpose but to make you lose your confidence. Best of Luck to you HopeinPain!
