[Misc] A letter to you all.

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've stumbled upon many posts here with people feeling extremely conscious about their acne. Insecurities, worries that the new routine isn't working out, scars, blotches, redness and all of that jazz.And as someone who's had cystic, painful acne since 13(I'm 17 now) who used to be extremely, extremely embarrassed about it, I relate to it. All of it. I've stood in front of the mirror, enable to fathom how it got so bad. I have almost no pictures from my early teens right up until I was 16 because I was so conscious about it. It was so bad, people in school would call my zits "face nipples". All sorts of names, which fucked with my confidence big time. Nothing worked, and if it did it would come back.With age, its gotten better on its own, but i still suffer from cystic acne(which I'm working on, I've gone to a good dermatologist now). I still have redness, my scars are deep and visible. Its still very much there.Add to the fact that I have other issues(Hair loss) should mean I'm at a really bad point in my life, right? Nope. I'm happy.The moment you...let your shortcomings decide who you are is the moment you lose the battle. I know it looks hideous, I've spent hours looking at the mirror wondering "Why?", so I truly understand. But...don't let it affect your everyday life. Don't let it affect your confidence. Your self respect. Your mental health. It's not worth it. Truly, it isn't. I remember the moment I decided "Fuck this shit" and changed my outlook. That's the moment all that teasing didn't matter. Fuck people who decide the best thing to do is poke fun at you for your face. Fuck that shit man, you don't need such people in your life. Keep smiling, be happy and live life! Really! I probably come off as naive for staying something so simplistic, but think about it for a while and i think you'll know what I mean.Don't beat yourself up for your acne. and wear sunscreen.Yours truly, u/IBurnedMyBalls.
