Yes ~ I've always felt invisible. I always felt like if I was with a couple of other people, or even in a group - no one could see me because i don't matter. That I'm not important enough.

My therapist helped me thru that, thankfully. But it took awhile before anyone DID care or notice me. That's probably because I had to learn to care and notice MYSELF. If I didn't care about myself, how is anyone else going to care about me??

So first line of work was learning to like myself and making myself worthy of LOOKING at. Then I had to make sure that I cared for OTHERS. If I didn't care for myself how am I going to care for other people?

It's all a big circle. You have to care for yourself and others in order to be noticed and cared for.
