I was just wondering if anyone related...The happy face and type thread got me thinking...
From my earliest memory, right up untilI was about...13...14, I didn't associate with my face, hardly at all, I'd try to remember it and would only vaguely recollect having brown hair and glasses. I'd have to look in a mirror, and be surprised at the person I saw, that it was 'me'. The big mind f*ck was when I realised I had mannerisms, THAT was ODD. I don't reall know how to put it into words...
I guess that this was my face, and I somehow had control over it, but had been completly unaware of this 'control' for years and years...like this way of people seeing into my brain I was completely oblivious to.
FWIW, I also had a very skewed body image until even after then, but I can't work out the deal with my face, or how the two are linked really...Yet they both kind of started becoming more realistic for the same reason (looking in a mirror and registering how I looked, for real, not what I thought I saw)...
