my braces are driving me UP THE WALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is weird, but my braces have probably affected me a LOT, and i'm not just taking about my teeth getting straighter. i like the way i smile better (somehow, it made my smile bigger or something) but not the way it looks (you know...these TRAIN TRACKS IN MY MOUTH!). that is, when i DO smile. i've gotten so sick of these things. i'm always cutting my lips with them, and i can't stand the thought of knowing that i'll have them for another year... when people call me braceface, metal mouth, silver sidewalk, dientes de aluminio, etc. it's not that i'm sensitive or anything, but i get pissed off easily, and the thought of having them for another year and not being able to take them off even for a minute... it took away some of my favorite food!! my teeth weren't even crooked in the first place, but my parents got me them anyway because...never mind, that'll only make this story even longer. anyway, it's not just that stuff, that i'm really HATING the way i look, but it's starting to get REALLY weird... you're probably not gonna believe this, but when i talk on the phone, i almost always hear other people's phone convos!!! once i even heard a police officertalking to another one! it's not my phone, cause it always happens to me ONLY. don't even get me starting on TV reception... this i slong, and it probably sounds like i'm crazy, but i just need a way to deal with these things... put up with them for ANOTHER YEAR.

I know exactly how you feel with the braces. I have my for another year too :(
I know they suck SO MUCH now, but if you are already liking your smile better, think how great it will be in a year when your teeth are not only better, but braceless!!! My braces cut me too, but it's always the wire getting loose at the back and not the front parts cutting me. Try talking to your ortho about that and getting some chap stick or vaseline!
Yeah, the no sugar thing sucks...at the moment I'm eating a lot of diabetic chocolate which has, if not none at all, at least reduced sugar. You can buy it from Thorntons or Boots in England or any good chocolate or health shop any where else!! You can get all sorts - toffee, fudge, wine gums, fruit drops, biscuits, belgian chocolate - anything you can think off, all with like 1% sugar! I really recommend it 'cause it tastes as good as the real stuff :)
Only one more year...think how fast the last year has flown by! Stay strong and remember that it really isn't that long, not when you think most people live for like 80.
You'll be grateful you had them when you get them off :P
Blessed Be,

I can't really help you much, I know how much it must really annoy you having braces and not being able to take them out but just think, next time someone is horrible to you they can laugh all they want but one day your teeth will be much better than there's.

I had braces for a year and a half..it's really not that bad for the end results. There are other foods, silly!!! Try something else, it's all about self control. Who cares what people say? When peope said something about my braces. I said (in my head) "at least I can afford them" I know it doesn't feel like it for all you have to give up, but your lucky your parents care so much to do this for you.
If you need anymore help, i'll be here
