Asking for a recommendation letter

I'm writing this because I'm feeling anxious about asking my professors to write a letter of recommendation for me to send to the BON. In 2016, I made a mistake when I decided to drive after drinking. I was arrested and charged with a DUI. I fully own my thoughtless actions and I understand I put many lives at risk, including my own. I had to reevaluate my coping mechanisms of stress. Now I am faced with another test of character-being vulnerable and honest about my mistakes. I'm so very afraid my of judgement and rejection. I know that my professor thinks highly of me yet my fears of inadequacy and shame are overwhelming. I am taking a lot of deep breaths and practicing meditation with lovingkindness mantras directed toward myself. Still, I am so anxious! Has anyone had to do this before? if so, what advice can you lend as to what I should say as i speak with my professor, and share the reason for the letter?

    Copy and paste your post onto a letter and hand it to your professor. Full disclosure honesty. Good Luck.
