Hi Lynda, having been blind from birth, and having attended a
School for the Blind, I can tell you where a lot of that
perfectionist thinking comes from. First of all, from the time
was I little I was told that I would have to work harder than
sighted people because I would have to be as good or better than
sighted folks. We were taught that it is a sighted world and
that we would have to be better than other folks in everything we
do. For years I have struggled with my self-worth because guess
what! I am not "super-blind". I get lost, spill things, (not a
lot but sometimes), get lost, and have been known to need to ask
for help on occasion. Well, all those things were things that I
got in trouble for growing up. It's very hard to get rid of
stuff that was taught to you as a small child. Debby
