Answer 1

Hi,
I know it's not quite the same but I got bullied at school for 4 years for being overweight. I'm now 31 and at a weight I feel comfortable with. I only tell you this now to show you that you can get past this. I can 100% tell you that people who pick on you only do it because they not only hate themselves in some way but think if they pick on you they stupidly think no one will be looking at them. The main bully at my school was the thorn in my side for years. Well now being 31, I saw him in a pub about 13 months ago and he had put on so much weight that he was 3 times the size I was in school! It may be a corny line and you may think 'yeah, easier said than done!' but he who laughs last laughs longest. He couldn't beleive how much I had changed and apologised for how he had treated me. Its NOT an excuse but unfortunatley people, (not just teenagers) can be mean and cruel with their mouths. They either don't realise how much they have hurt you or they just don't care. Get yourself to the doctor, take somone you trust with you, tell the doctor you can't cope with it anymore and that you shouldn't have to. Make him/her get to the bottom of what is causing this. The next sentance may sound like line from an agony aunt column but its true. The next time someone makes a comment or does something to make you feel small about yourself, take a deep breath and picture in your mind them in bed crying themselves to sleep because I can guarantee they do that most of the time. Bullies bully because they feel powerless so don't allow them to take power from you. Just ignore them, walk away and think to yourself 'I'm a good caring person and I would never treat people that way'.
Good luck and keep strong.

Well done for taking the first steps to resolving these problems by asking for help. Seems the main problem as most people have highlighted is the bullying.. you must tell people be it friends, parents a teacher do not suffer in silence. As for your skin you have become self-conscious of it because its being used to victimise you by idiots. You must deal with the bullies as even if you do something about your skin they will find something else to taunt you about. So firstly seek some help with the bullies. If after that you are still conscious of your skin just go see your doctor as a first step or take a deep breathe and venture into a beauty salon and see what advise they can give you. You might be pleasantly surprised. Dealing with the bullies will help build your self esteem and that will make any skin complaint, pimple, blotch seem more manageable. Good luck.. remember you have started to talk about it and thats the first step.

Sorry to hear that. I know how you feel, my cheeks are constantly red and have been like that for about 7 years. The redness never goes away and it's like that everyday. It's probably just the complexion of the skin. I used to get called a lot but im afraid the only thing you can do is think of some good comebacks to say back to these idiots. Try to ignore it if possible. Good luck

Answer 4

wow people are rude. First don't care about what they say. And second use a foundation like dream matte mousse. I have some red in my hace because i am light complexed. Its great. Also you may be using to harsh of soap or face wash. and second go to a place like sephora. Its a great make up place. go to sephora.com to find a place near you. you go there and ask for something that will reduce the redness. I did and they helped me. I hope this helps.

Answer 5

Do you know some thing people with pink faces look very cute and pretty . Just ignore those who make fun of you. If you are concerned of what others think about u then u can never move forward in life.

Answer 6

Take it from someone who was bullied at school and has been through it. The bullies are generally cowards who need to pick on someone to divert attention from themselves.

Speak to your parents and teacher. Also just ignore them or if they really get to you, look for some weakness in the bully. He or she will have one and just point this out to everyone in school, perhaps he's got a big nose or his breath smells.

Before everyone jumps on me for reducing it to the bullies level, in the words of Kenny Rogers 'sometimes you got to fight to be a man'

Answer 7

It could be that your skin has a low amount of chemicals that decrease your likeliness to burn. I'd suggest starting with a roll on sun screen stick, (they look like a glue stick and won't make skin oily.) If you are still having issues I'd use a type of cover-up. You could have a skin disorder so I'd talk to your mom and visit the dermatologist.

Answer 8

take a bag of pepper in to school any body that calls you throw some in there face this will become very painful and irritable and make there face red then see how they like it.this might get you into trouble but haha

Answer 9

Sweetheart there is nothing wrong with you what so ever. Kids are just awful at that age. I was the fat kid in school and I was always picked on. I always keep one thing on my mind though, That if they have to make fun of me to make their life easier then, they dont have much going on for themselves. You shouldnt change who you are for anyone...unless it's for yourself. Try ignoring them sweetheart. Soon enough there will be people who see the real you.

Answer 10

i.d. Bare esentuals Make up is great. It's made from ground down minerals and will cover any redness without feeling heavy on your skin. It won't cause any problems for your skin if it is sensitive either.
