How am I supposed to tell my mom I have more scars on my legs
When my mom first found out about my scars she cried a lot. Since then she’s bought all sorts of things like bio oil and silicone scar gel to try and get them to fade. She was shocked when she saw a specific scar on my wrist, which was a pretty wide styro but it shrunk a lot. Although it isn’t that big, she thought it was really noticeable.
The problem is, I have like over 50 scars on my legs that I haven’t told her about, and most of them are from reaching the dermis/fat, so they’re really big. I know she dislikes my scars and really hates looking at them, so how am I supposed to tell her about the scars on my legs? I can’t hide it forever. I already know she’ll probably react worse than the one she saw on my wrist, so I don’t know what to do
@tomatocultivation hugs you tightly ❤ I know it's hard to think your gonna hurt your mum by telling her the truth. But to get help on moving through this you have to confide in someone. I know it's scary though😥 other than trying to get rid of/ cover the scars, did your mum try to get you any support from doctors or therapists? Or try to help you with what your dealing with in your own mind in any way??cause that's what need s to be focused on rn. I hope you will be ok, we are all here for you ❤
