How Do You Cope With Feeling Really Unattractive?

A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I keep getting new ones pop up and they take months to go. Leaves me so self conscious and I don’t want my partner to see. It’s making me really depressed
Right now have a huge lump right at the very top of my thigh and it’s so ugly and won’t ease ☹️☹️

Hello Felicia6 I’m glad that your husband support you 100% 😊 my daughter is 23 yrs old, she lives with me & she doesn’t care about me & I feel lonely & sometimes depressed. My mom & my siblings don’t know about my hs condition. I have faith in God & I’m moving on with my life. Happy Saturday 🦋

Debbie get a cream called boiled it's usually at Walgreens, Walmart, or Dollar General. After u shower put on you boil make sure u put on something that won't wipe the cream off. If should burst by morning, if not repeat the process. It really works.🥰

I'm thankful I having a loving husband who walks this journey with me. He helps me when I did get my flare ups. He helped fixed my remedies and applied to my infected areas. He loves me the same even when I felt down. My husband made me feel better about myself.
