I’ve never felt more crippling insecurity than I have over my hands rn, with my skin getting worse, like I’ve never felt so absolutely repulsive than looking at them and thinking “god, nobody would want to touch these hands”

I've had that insecurity a lot, I worked in healthcare and had an insane allergic reaction to the hand sanitizer and it made my hands super swollen and wrinkled, what's your situation with your hands?

Jeez that sounds insane- mine just have stupid bad eczema and really dry hands so the opposite ig, my hands get super dry and are like flaky/scratchy literally all the time

oh man that sucks, I'm sure you've tried pretty much every lotion too 😔 I will say if someone is repulsed by your hands they're not someone who deserves you, I know it's hard to have that mindset tho

Yeah pretty much 🥲 some nights I’ve tried sleeping with gloves on after I put lotion on to try and get it to help even more and that helps sometimes but it makes me feel so stupid lmao 😭 And like usually I’d agree, it just sucks when it’s like not something based on looks or anything but just like I know it’s like physically uncomfortable for anyone, it just makes me feel so gross 😭
