I have got better at accepting compliments, I no longer go bright red or stutter for the words to say thank you. It still feels weird receiving compliments as i never really had any till recently. I have come to realise that different people see me differently and that is ok, each to their own. Those that notice when i look different tend to be those i know best so as i have learnt to trust they are not going to hurt me , i have also learned to trust when they compliment me. compliments feel good.
