I would have to say it depends on the amount of care. I have very little concern with what others think of me from appearance (actual actions and virtues are different).
Otherwise I really would be driving myself batshit nuts. Come on I am in a chair, I am anemic with dry skin (which looks like the effects of say meth usage but isnt), I do not like to shave much, I have a fear of barbers so my hair remains fairly long, my feet swell so shoes do not work (socks only). Hell I am constantly asked for help with everything, and well it could go on and on.
People think what they want to regardless. I could be in a 4k suit, perfectly groomed, proper amount of accessories that imply cash and still people would first see and judge chair. Hell if I really worried I am sure I would of snapped in the past few years anyways when some stranger comes up and aggressively shakes my hand or squeezes my shoulders and (sometimes with tears) thanks me. Come on! Do you know how hard it is to explain yourself out of that situation when some poor lady is on verge of a complete emotional breakdown and you have to say sorry lady, I didnt get hurt in the middle east.
