I'm always worrying myself to fatigue about my looks. I used to be an ugly duckling when I was a teenager, and now people seem to find me more attractive. It's true that I'm not used to too much attention. It has made me worry a lot about my appearance that I think of the worse scenarios happening to me. Since I am naturally hirsute, I am undergoing laser hair removal to remove hair from my face. Honestly, it's THE best thing that has happened to me! But, it has also made me be too anxious to follow every word of the doctor's advise, like not to remove hair from my face during the course. I used to be someone for whom plucking hair was as normal and easy as brushing the teeth, so I'm kinda used to it. But, now I'm afraid of even washing my face or touching the chin for the fear of unconciously removing hair. Even if I don't actually do it, I keep imagining that I have. I get depressed for hours, even days,when this happens. I am afraid of myself now. I don't trust myself anymore.HELP!

Screw what other people think ,live yor life the way you want to and don't let the other losers influence you or your looks.Sam Walton the founder of walmart was at one time the richest man and still he kept driving a ten year old pickup truck because he did not care what other people think of him.When you go to bed at night you should not be thinking about all the rotten things somebody might of said about you.

First thing to do is to calm down, relax. Appreciate life as it is. If the doctor said it's fine to wash your face and all don't be afraid. They are qualified, they know what they are doing.

The best way to get over this one is to learn to love yourself for who you are and work on your self esteem.
You value of yourself should not be based upon other peoples superficial appraisals.
