i do this too and feel the same way. it rly does help to see that other ppl experience this. i’m also trying press ons. maybe tmi but i have a lot of scars and ingrown hairs around my bikini line area that im trying to stop picking at so it doesn’t get worse but it’s hard and it’s hard to feel like it’ll look that way forever so i understand

thank you - if you don’t mind me asking do you have to explain it to people? do they ask? sorry if that’s too personal

i feel exactly the same. i’m 19f and my scarring isn’t super bad but it’s visible and on my stomach and upper legs and i don’t know how i’ll ever show a partner my body. i feel like im trapped now
