Pimples On Face – Teen Embarrassment
It wasn’t until I got into freshman year of high school and turned 15 that I started getting pimples on face. In junior high I didn’t have to worry about checking the mirror in the morning to see how my face looked because I never had any pimples then. High school was different, and I wanted to be anything but different, I just wanted to fit in with everyone. I started getting small pimples on face that at first seemed pretty harmless. They started appearing on both my cheeks and on my chin and weren’t very visible at first. I shrugged it off, but as the days went by they started turning into white pimples on face and they were getting pretty big by now. Not only that but each day it seemed like another one would appear.
No one made fun of me or commented on the spots on my face, but I became very self conscious and I tried to cover them up as much as I could with makeup. I wanted to hide them from everyone, especially my friends and the boys I liked. All the pretty popular girls had clear skin and didn’t have to worry about covering up blemishes. Why should I have to hide my face pimples? Why was I cursed with bad skin? It just wasn’t fair. It came to the point where I was so embarrassed of my pimples on face that I started staying at home more and not hanging out with my friends as much. I just couldn’t handle them seeing me like this. I knew they were thinking how gross my face was and how disgusted they must be by it. I was just too ashamed to go out and face it.
