Beauty Tips For Body Care
Since about 14 years old, my skin has been the bane of my life. It really holds me back. I used to love my life, but I haven't for a long time now.Basically I'm dealing with:-Acne on face and neck-Keratosis pilaris on upper arms-Psoriasis in eyebrow and genitalsNow the psoriasis is easy enough to control with Protopic, but it's still in the back of my mind and makes me depressed because of the location.My acne bothers me, but it's only moderate, so my biggest concern at the moment is the keratosis pilaris. It's not the typical "chicken skin" though as mine is quite red. I've got really sensitive skin so AHAs/BHAs etc aren't an option - I've tried them before and they make it worse. So I'm stuck to just keeping it well moisturised. But I know that the bumps will never go down unless the shit underneath comes up, so I end up picking and squeezing until I get it up. Sometimes I think of just making little burns on my arms so that it scars over and is white instead of red since I can deal with scars, it's the redness that really bothers me.I also developed stretch marks on my back when I was like 14 or 15, but I've come to terms with those at least and they don't really bother me. But for a long time I hated them and it didn't help that a couple of my old "friends" used to tease me and say that I had been whipped.I regularly have suicidal thoughts when thinking about my skin because of how hopeless it all seems. I don't go outside for literally months at a time because I don't want anyone to see me.I've already been on accutane, which did help my acne but it wasn't permanent. Probably was the cause of my KP as well.I don't even know why I'm bothering to write this since it's not like anyone will have some kind of magic solution. I'm just really fucking fed up of my skin controlling my life. I feel like I've gone way beyond just simply being a bit worried about my skin. Just hoping someone can relate I guess.
