My mom spent lots of time and money to make a cosplay for me to wear at a friend's party. My anxiety kicked in at the last minute so I didn't wear it. Now I feel terrible for wasting her time and money and I feel ridiculous for feeling terrible about such an irrelevant mistake and I feel terrible for not appreciating my mom. I also feel terrible because I found out my friend really wanted to see my cosplay and so I'm all like "I'm so stupid, I should have worn it." I can't sleep and I feel so sick. Every time I try to let it go, I just think of it some more. I have thought of two options: Sell the outfit or help save up $60 for Comic Con (in March) and wear it then. I just don't want to waste more of my parent's money on that. What do I do and what are some other possibilities?

Hi :3
Honestly what I would do is help save up the money for Comic Con and wear it then. Thats just me though. Don't let the guilt take over, I'm sure your parents will understand you didn't wear it because of anxiety. If the guilt comes back, teach it who's boss (You!) Dont keep nagging at yourself because of a last-minute panic you had. I get them all the time but I remember not to get at myself for it. Its OK to have those moments and I bet your parents will understand, mk?
Sorry if this didnt really help, I tried. :(
I don't think this is anxiety, I guess so, but if I was you, I would go face to face and hug her, I would say I was sorry and deal with the rest. You shouldn't sell it, If I was your mom, I would be heartbroken if someone sold something that I made for them by wasting precious time and money. I'm sorry if I offended you, hope this helps!~ - TIFFANY MAYUMI
