The capacity to feel your pain means you're blessed with the capacity to feel others' pain, and be more compassionate. Not only that, but when you come out the other side, you'll be so much stronger for it. It goes without saying that almost everyone has body issues, and Growing Up is Hard. I also know what it's like to want to show the world that Everything is Fine, even when it's not, and wishing it were.
As for the people who say you can't lift stuff when you know you can... give them a smirk and a "There's more to me than meets the eye" sort of line.
