constantly hiding
I'm a 16 year old girl and a sophomore in high school. I'm so concerned with my appearance and it bothers me that theres something wrong with my body that i cant do anything about. i have a birthmirk on my neck and its very noticeable. i always wear my hair down and constantly am fixing it to make sure its covered. i feel so different and selfconcious than everyone else. i just feel like its not fair. i cant enjoy life like everyone because im always concerned with my birthmirk showing. putting my hair up is a definite no. which is why i hate having to wear it up for sports. i feel like its slowing me down and im too concious of it to just let loose and have fun and be outgoing and talk to guys without being worried about whether or not they notice it. and to make it worse i did something so stupid... i tried to scratch it off with a nail file one day because i was so frustrated and i wound up making it darker and more noticeable because now theres a big cut that wont go away. ugh. i just dont know what to do anymore. thanks for your help.

There's a few things you can do. First of all, makeup. Foundation the exact shade of your skin, and powder on top (otherwise it'll rub off). Depending on where you live, if it's cold out, turtlenecks will let you put your hair up. Right now there's a lot of scar removing products out there that you could try...maybe something with cocoa butter. If that doesn't work you need to see a dermatologist- there's probably some kind of treament he or she can prescribe.
