This is going in the anxiety section because this is something that in the past would have caused me no end of awful embarrassment, wanting to hide and thinking I'm stupid. But it didn't. I was standing in line at lunch today and there were about 7 or 8 people at the table, a drug rep, and a research rep were there when one lady looked me and said, "ok, is it because of the turtleneck your wearing or what?" Told her I had no idea what she was talking about and was totally confused. She said, "well it looks like it's on backwards." I reached up and nope, turtleneck not on backwards. My uniform shirt OVER my turtleneck is on backwards!! Has a v-neck and two front pockets that were now in the back. Of course everyone starting laughing and joking and I spent about 2 seconds feeling embarrassed before joking and laughing with them. I laughed about it. May not seem like a big thing, but I do not like people even noticing me, let alone when I have something wrong with me. But it didn't kill me, devastate me, hurt me or even bother me. Hmmm, never knew I could do that!!
