Do people really understand how hard it is to face the world and social situations with severe acne scars.?





Becasue people think it's so easy for ne.All they keep asking is


Why don;t i ever go out


Why don't i have a girlfriend.


So many why's and no Well maybe it's because....?





My reason.I am saving money to fix my ance acars tot he best of my ability.DO you think that is understandable. I mean give me a break people.It is f**king hard to face the world when the acne scars are so apparent.Do people really understand how hard it is to face the world and social situations with severe acne scars.?
I think alot of people are going to tell you that everyone has flaws, and that you should just forget about them and put your best foot forward.





I had flaws. and what I did instead, was change myself to fit the image i wanted. It took time. But it was worth it. Confidence enriches your life.





Do what it takes to make yourself confident. Dont worry about what others are saying. Be open with them. Admit your flaws, and tell them that your going to change yourself before you persue a girlfriend. Being open can be hard, but it shoots you with confidence.Do people really understand how hard it is to face the world and social situations with severe acne scars.?
It sounds like you are very self-conscious, but you probably notice them more than anybody else. I've known plenty of people that have had severe acne and have really bad scars, yet they are still social and have friends or a significant other. The fact that you let something so petty and vain bother you so much is a little ridiculous. You need to live your life, flaws and all. People will still be attracted to your personality. Everybody is not quite as superficial as you are. Therefore, stop worrying so much about it and don't let something so trivial hold you back. Anybody that treats you differently just because of acne scars is not worth it anyway.
Everyone has insecurities, please understand this. The people that ask you why you aren't going out and don't have a girlfriend are only saying that because they know what a wonderful person you are and how you could have so much more. It is so easy to see a world full of judgemental creeps, but I hope you get to see the multitudes of people who aren't.
Everyone has their insecurities, if you focus on one particular one it will gain power over you. Do not feel sorry for yourself, it will only make you ask questions like this.





I used to have my own (flushed face) that I was obsessed with for two years. Do not let it ruin your life and choose to have fun and live.





Gain some self respect and say that if people do not treat you like a normal person (when you act normally) because of your scars then they do not deserve to be friends with you.
do you really truly think that having your scars treated will magically fix your insecurity?





I understand how you feel. I've been battling acne my entire adult life.


I still get massive breakouts to this day and I'm well, I'm old.





I decide long ago that it wasn't going to define who I am, and a tremendous weight slowly lifted. It is what it is my friend. get the scars treated if you think it will make you feel better, but it won't change how people feel about you, unless you deal with the real issue of your insecurities.
have you ever heard of the term, fulfilling your own prophecy? everyone has their own insecurities and you defenitely are better off then alot of people if all you have to worry about is scars from acne. not to put you in your place or it into real perspective, but sleep on it.





btw, if you get your scars treated you're just going to find something else you hate about yourself. learn to let it slide.
no people dont understand but why would you care every person looks different acne is natural if you have severe acne scars its not something new if you have a good sense of humor and you respect yourself then it shouldnt matter man...live life and have fun doing it...but i do understand you...keep your head up
hey it's not the acne....some don't have legs and arms and make it through so one yhing I suggest iss. every morning when you wake up wash your face with spring water and avoid any sources of acidityy such as ketchup, mustardr and all
We all have flaws. For me it's my teeth and nose. Both I'm told are really cute, but to ME....huh uh not so much! I guess you just learn to deal...you can only do so much!


Hope this helps!
The world is shallow we are not of this world we are just in it

I know an absolute knockout of a girl who had both her legs amputated after a car wreck. Do you suppose she had some trouble in social settings at first?
acnes are there but there are also remedies. save money and go. goodluck. life is too short to waste.
Dude, love yourself :P


It's who you are


and chicks dig scars lol
NO, they really have no clue. My husband and his sister both had terrible acne when they were teens. Their Mother, supposedly a nurse, would insist on breaking the sores, which left deep ugly scars on their faces and backs. Not having much exposure to seeing those type of scars, I think most people think the scars are from something much worse than acne.





I admit when I first saw my sister in laws scars on her back, it actually made ME hurt. Hers are MUCH worse than my husbands. When I started dating my husband he explained what his scars were and how they got there, and they do not bother me at all.





I do understand your apprehension. In today's world it is hard to be accepted for who and what you are. People are very judgmental and thoughtless. Sometimes I want nothing to do with people at all. But in my case, it is not because of ME, it is because I am growing to just not like people. I hope in your case, once you get your scars fixed you will find people less judgmental than they are now.
Here's a more technical solution: try Mederma. My leg got cut (twice) on the stationary bike machine at an athletic club. I had these bizarre parallel line scars right below my knee. I have been putting Mederma on them for the past few months and they are MUCH less noticeable. The coloring is closer to my normal skin color and they are much shorter too.





If people ask, ';Why don't you go out?';, then your acne scars are obviously much less noticeable than you think, otherwise when people started to wonder to themselves, ';Why doesn't he go out? Why doesn't he have a girlfriend?'; they would quickly come to the conclusion ';Oh, right! He has disfiguring acne scars!';. So, by asking you about the reasoning behind your anti-social behavior, they are actually paying you a compliment!
Look, I was in the same position u were and I've learn to deal with it. I see that most people don't really care how u look like, they really only care how they personally look like. I've suffered from acne since i was 12 and I'm 18 now and I hate it so much because they just wont go away and I have scars too. But you know that doesn't make stop doing what I do because actually I'm happier now because I could careless what other people besides the ones who love me think about me. I think being more positive makes u heal more too, and believe me I know what it is to hide and not do what u want to do for fear of people looking at me and stuff. I've been burned had surgeries, suffering from acne and have been gaining weight, none of that has stopped me from doing what I want. Because I learned to not care for what I want he people to think of me but I want to do what I want to do and so I live my life the way I want too. I hope u get a little more confidence becasue that will help u for sure. I wish u all the luck because beauty is only skinn deep not the appearance. Don't worry about others worry about all those memories u wont be able to make if u just keep hiding from the world.
Ok, you have acne scars. Most relationships form from looks yes, but it is personality that lasts. there are 3oo million people in the US. I am sure there are people that like you. there is probably someone with a crush on you, but is too shy to say anything.


get over it we all have flaws. sure most of us the flaw is hidden, but life goes on. if you let it bother you it will affect all of your relation ships. have you seen a dr for a face peel. I just did a face peel with a cream, put it on for two weeks, followed by cortisone for one week, followed by sunblock for one year. cost, about $150. it won't remove them, but it would make them not as pronounced. laser, on the other hand will probably cost several thousand dollars. laser is several treatments at several hundred dollars each. SEE A DR.
