I think Leslie makes some good points. I think the first, and best thing you
can do is acknowledge this feeling. You have already done that instead of
denying it is there which is an important step. If you would like, I would
be willing to discuss this with you further off list. Feel free to shoot me
an email at mrallman116 at gmail.com If not that's OK too.

how to get beyond it. Why do you hate being blind do you feel like you're
not getting anywhere in life? Feel like you're not getting any
opportunities? You focus on what you are good in. You are an intelligent
young woman  and you will get through this. But only you can figure out how
And go from there being blind is not a tragedy. It just feels like that
sometimes. Just remember that you were not alone. On, you will have to
figure out a way to put your frustrations behind you so you can move
forward. Otherwise, you will be stuck.
