Hi Sashy sorry to hear you’re experiencing this - I have not had corrective surgery but have had those intense feelings of regret and panic about many things including my body. I am a terrible skin picker when stressed and will often leave myself with open wounds and scars if the picking was bad enough.
I’ve also plucked my eyebrows to nothing and cut my own hair in some awful manic moments. The embarrassment of going to work with bandaids on my face and my emotional pain being so physical feels shameful and hard to deal with.
I know it’s different but those panicked feelings are anxiety and then overthinking is also the anxiety.
If you haven’t already then I would recommend talking to a GP about how you are feeling. They might refer you to a psychologist who could help talk things through and put some coping mechanisms in place.
