I was wondering if anyone has ever experienced feeling psychically dirty when you break out or have severe/moderate acne.
It's as if you can't take enough showers or wash your face enough. I'm currently broke out pretty bad on my cheeks and have a big one right on the corner of my mouth. I just feel slimy and gross. Even when I just get out of the shower, 10min later I feel nasty again. However, the feeling does away once my break out does.
Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?...
I remember many years ago when I was physically attacked because of having acne, I felt disgustingly dirty, as well as repulsive, hideous and ugly. The thing to remember though is that any feelings of being dirty because of having acne are precisely that - feelings and not a physical or an actual fact. It is a purely psychological response but the reality is that acne is not a condition that makes you dirty or is caused by poor hygiene. If you can try to remind yourself of that.
