My Glasses Issues

Can I just say: I love glasses! I absolutely like them, no doubt. They make me feel smart and intelligent and pretty and beautiful and confident and outgoing and carefree. When I wear them I feel like no one will ever judge me! When I wear them I feel like I could take on the world! But in my family, we are on the spot with money, so I can only get glasses if I really need them, but I know there's absolutely nothing wrong with my eyesight and I'm not going to lie just to get glasses. That'll actually wreck my eyes! So yesterday, I went for an eye appointment today at 3:30 that my mum booked, and it's official! I have no need for glasses and it doesn't look like I'll ever need them. On the car ride there, I was really depressed. On the car ride home, I cried, silently so my mum or brother wouldn't know that I was. And here I am writing all this down because I feel like I can't keep bottling these feelings up. I mean, I lashed out at my sister (not actually related but we just call each other sisters), Kaylynn, and she had a massive headache so I probably just made it so much more worse! I regret it so much, and I know I'm probably over-reacting over nothing or the littlest things, like "Seriously?! All that over glasses??!!!" But you guys need to understand that I have major confidence issues, and for some reason glasses make me feel like a new person! I mean look at where it got Superman and Supergirl! It DID turn them into different people! (not literally, though, that would be weird if they put on/took off a pair of glass and their entire DNA matrix changed! Score 1 for science!)
