.JacktheLad. 40 Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) when your dad is shouting at you telling you all this washing is becoming obsessive. when your standing in front of the mirror at 1/2 inch closeness looking for something to pick or that white head clogged pore to squeeze. when you look and analyse everyone else's face around you and they seem pretty perfect. when you wish that the marks you just made would hurry up and heal when you spend 8-9 times a day looking into a mirror. when you skip meeting a friend cause you feel and look like total shit continue..

Jlisondra 47 Posted February 23, 2010 when your sister (a sister you get along with) asks you to be a bridesmaid in her wedding, and you want to say no just because of your face. tho u know she'd be grateful, yet all you can think about is wanting to hide from the cameras. when acne treatments take up all the room on your sink. when you're at an event, n you're trying to hide out in the restroom until the sun goes down because you can't stand natural light. once you do come out, someone asks you where the hell have you've been n you quickly come up with a lie. when you have the feeling of losing who you are because you're always thinking about your skin.

I do that, but to put all my makeup on...I also don't look in the mirror half an hour after washing my face as its always so red and inflamed I know! Even with gentle cleansers and stuff my face looks so red and irritated afterward. Now throw shaving into the mix and you have yourself a disaster.
