I can look at myself just fine, but only with my glasses off.

I don't look at myself in the mirror because I notice my pimples. If I look at myself long enough I'll squeeze them. Does anyone else still suffer from acne at 28?

I do get startled when I glimpse myself in a mirror unexpectedly, and I'm always disconcerted, because I seem to forget what I look like. I also get startled and uncomfortable when a see a human face while reading posts online.

And, Beauty Within, As for acne, I don't get it as bad as I did as a teen, but I do suffer from painful boils from time to time, on my face or on my back.

I'm a little weird around mirrors... Avoid looking at them if possible and only do so if necessary.
And I can't STAND seeing myself cry. Crying just looks unatural.

I tell people by clothes or their hair. If someone gets a haircut or styles it in a new way and wears diferent clothes, they usually seem like an entirely diferent person.
