Aside from the obvious (doing social things and talking to people)


I don't wear my hair in a ponytail (which makes it hard to workout sometimes)
I hate it when the curtains are open letting the natural night in (no one else seems to understand this!!)
Talking about skin or appearance with others, if someone brings it up I get really annoying

I think most would say 'Too many things to list'.

I'd say it holds me back from social interactions at times. I worry that people are staring at my acne, especially in bright light. Um... I avoid people in general when my face is at it's worst. Other than that, it doesn't stop me from too much I guess.

[f a m o u s]

I have to agree with natural light, it just emphasizes every single flaw on your face! Fluorescent lights are also a big pain..
When other people start talking about their skin problems, it makes me realllyyy uncomfortable because usually their flaws are nothing compared to mine and it makes me look like a freak.
And just the fact that I can't be spontaneous, as in I have to have at least an hour to put my make up on and get ready.

The only thing is I don't look people in the eyes, because I know if I do, I'll just see their eyes wandering. And I hate that.

My skin holds me back from going to the gym as often as I want to because I know everyone is staring at the zit covered freak.

Even when I'm in the gym, my skin also holds me back from working out as hard as I would like to truly push myself because if the intensity is too high I'll cause my skin too much stress and end up with a new cyst.

I can't go swimming, because I break out from chlorine.

I can't go to sleepovers, because there's no way I'll be able to do my skin regimen while I'm there.

I have to stay completely away from certain foods. Yesterday I had some cheese on a tortilla because there was nothing else in the fridge, and today I see 5 new pimples appearing on my chin.

and this

and meeting new people, I met a guy today and he was really funny and nice but I tried to cover my face as much as I could


I don't mind not wearing make-up when I'm with my girlfriends (sleepovers etc) unless we're going out, then I definitely wear MU

[fuwafuwachan]

Having bangs, wearing my hair in my face, taking showers at night, washing my hair less than every day, taking cute pictures, not wearing makeup even though I look better without it, letting someone touch my face, not looking in a mirror, thinking someone else thinks I'm beautiful.

Though. I've met a boy who looks into my eyes whenever he talks to me, and stays there. I think I'm in love. Lol.

[Intoxifornication]

why can't you take showers at night? lol

[Creme de la Creme]

My skin doesn't hold me back because they don't have hands.

[Intoxifornication]

that's smart

[Warrior of Acne]

I hate looking at people's eyes too because I see them looking around at my face. It sucks!

[Intoxifornication]

I don't let people look at my face because I have a HUGE hair to hide it

[Warrior of Acne]

Ahh lucky one! Too bad my hair is short. At least I do not have any acne above my cheekbones. How did I get so lucky??

[Intoxifornication]

It's kinda like this: http://sas.guidespot.com/bundles/guides_1d...zft7AbkKgLg.jpg

Except that I actually cover my face with it and you can only see one of my eyes


I dunno man, grow your hair!!

[Warrior of Acne]

That's awesome! Love it haha. Also, I just get acne on my chin which is a pain in the ass! It must be hormonal or something.

[Intoxifornication]

is it too severe tho?

[Warrior of Acne]

No. Maybe about 5 spots. It's not severe at all.
