So I had another makeover last weekend...first time Cyndi came out in 11 months! And while I had a lot of fun and all, as I was driving back I had this feeling of rejuvenation. Like all the stress that's been building over the last couple of months has just went away and now I'm ready to face the world with a very positive attitude.
Now I've been told by friends that maybe I do dress to blow off some steam. That it gives me a chance to step away for a while and focus on something else aka being Cyndi.
What's more I told this story to my counselor on Monday and she basically agreed that maybe I dressing does allow me to rid myself of stress when it builds up too much and ther was nothing wrong with that. Kinda through me for a loop!
But as I analyzed it myself, during the summer when I wasn't stressed, I didn't have much desire or urge to dress again, which lead me to think that maybe me exploring this new side of myself was over. But as school started again and I got stressed with everything going on, I started to feel that urge coming back. And now that I've done it again, it feels like my stress is gone. So I'm wondering now if this is going to be a pattern.
So my question to you is am I not alone? When you dress do you also get a feeling like all your troubles have just gone away and you can focus a little better on life?
