Hey, I have a question or two about what people may think when they see the scars on my legs. I go to a private school and I have to wear a skirt and you can see that my knees have quite a few scars. Around school I'm comfortable because people there know how I get them, but when I walk home, I feel VERY VERY self conscious. I used to play sports and I used to play soccer on gravel(our school doesn't have a proper grass field). I even have this circular, dark scar on my kneecap from playing basketball when a guy fell on top of me and i skidded, practically scraping off the whole layer of skin. I dont allow myself to wear anything that's above the bottom of my knee and that's nearly impossible when finding a dress or having to dress up for an occasion. I dont like wearing shorts, and I despise skirts. I don't despise the skirts themselves, but I just hate hte fact that my fear of people being disgusted keep from wearing a pretty skirt or some great shorts. Inside I'm a girly girl who loves skirts.
To get to the point: What would you think if you saw a girl with a lot of scars on her knees, and how can you overcome your selfconsciousness. |

Someone who is self conscious can tell herself all she wants that no one notices or cares, but it still feels like everyone is just like, "Ew." Anyway. I agree--Go out and buy some scar reducer shtuff like Mederma. I had a lot of ugly scars, and I got some delightfulness to put on them, and they turned from that nasty brown/purple color to white-ish. They're not going to fully go away, but they'll be a million times less noticeable, and you're feel a lot better! I also had a similar problem with shorts & skirts because I just flat out don't like my knees. But I bought a pair of shorts that I really really liked, and now I'm a little better about it. So yes. Don't just pick up any old skirt and expect it to be easy...Find a skirt or shorts that you love and really want to wear. That's all. Good luck. :) |
