prominent forehead, anyone?

Post Reply New Topic

I have very white and transparent skin, prominent forehead and a narrow chin.

I have a relatively large forehead, but it's completely flat- not prominent by any means.

Is it? People have always commented on it as if it were cause for concern. I mean, not just the big veins, but the little ones too. When it's cold, we get a "mottled" look to us. People always ask if we're okay, sick, if we have a rash, etc. Also, both of us bruise very easily.

My non-autistic half sister (who we strongly suspect ADHD) fits these, including being hypermobile and possibly having EDS (I am encouraging she go see a doctor). I have pretty big eyes, but hers are even bigger. I seem to have some hypermobility (interestingly enough, there's this thing I can do with my left arm behind my back, that I can't do with my right, and my dad who's autistic has this same pattern too) too, though not nearly as much.

When I borrow my dad's hat, I always need to adjust the velcro thing to be looser (we're pretty much the same height).

As for my forehead specifically, I don't quite know, though it might be a little bigger.



That sounds a lot like my older sister, bruising easily, see the veins clearly. I can see the more prominent veins, and am tanned and not very pale, but even without tan I don't see more than the prominent veins.

yeah! i always thought that mottled look was normal... even if it did make me think of the skin that alot of the demon thingies on Silent Hill have >_>; i just never contemplated why my skin turns that way in the cold o_o; i avoid the cold so thats probably why

I do understand; some ask if I'm feeling ok - I am really pale with dark eyes. I am dark around the eyes, just naturally.

I know some have said, just conjecture here, Auties/Aspies can look Borg. Well, yeah.....I see the parallels.

I don't know..?

I've never really noticed my forehead, but now I see it in most pictures of me..

The only thing I have that I would consider mottling is the palms of my hands. I am certainly white, and haven't been taken as any other race/ethnicity, and my skin is fairly light.(I say that ONLY to give you a better picture, not for any other reason) My palms have a kind of mottling where there are spots that are perhaps 4mm that are whiter among my normal skin color. Of course, my larger viens can ALSO be seen there. They are perhaps 1/3rd as obvious anywhere else.

Only one person noticed it by accident, and she called my attention to it. 2 others noticed it under more obvious circumstances. One color looks like the skin under my fingernails. The OTHER color looks almost looks like the skin under my fingernails after they have just been under pressure.

I have a huge head, a proeminent forehead and browridge. It seems that we all have a big head in common at least. True?

Lots of pretty females - and guys here too. Ok...that's purely subjective, but still - we're pretty. d0ds0t - you have 'cat eyes' like I do but different coloring.

I have the biggest forehead in my family, look at it, huge, you ever see such a massive melon, I even have an occipital bulge.
Excuse the silly face, I can't keep a straight face if picture is being taken.

spudnik - you're a cutey!

i know what you mean. I have a very large forehead, large, deepset eyes and really translucent skin. kind of like a kewpie doll. I kind of have a big head for my body.


I have trouble with dark circles under my eyes because my skin is kind of translucent. You can see blood vessels under my skin from forehead to chin.

I've had this too all my life. ?
