Depends enitely on your skin, how bad the scars are and what you use.
I found Palmers Coco Butter Scar serum to take the worst of my scars away. You have to use it every day and its about a tenner a bottle but it could be worth trying. Vitmain E capsules burst and spread on the scars is a cheaper option but its no where as effective (on me anyway)
Due to certain events in the last month or so, I've finally decided that it's time that I got some sort of help.
Some questions about it:
1. At my school, they have counsellers. is it better to ask them for help or go to the doctors for help?
2. What is likely to happen to me (if anything) if I go to either the doctors or counseller for help?
3. Does anyone have a right to tell my parents? (or tutors if I just go for counselling in school)
4. Is there any 'easy' way to ask for help?
Thanks.
2. That would depend on what you tell them.
3. Only if they suspect that you're a huge risk.
4. No.
Basically.
TBH, I'm not entirely sure what I want out of this - I have no idea why I am the way I am.
Do you have Mederma, there? I've known a couple people who for surgical scars have been given or told to use that one specifically. It has worked very well for them and I've been using it and it is seeming to work (which is contrary to anything else I've tried ) Only problem is it takes quite a while. You have to apply it 3-4 times a day for 3-6 months and a bottle lasts me only about half a month, which could easily be the case for others as their bottle size is made to last for 3 monts for 1 3 inch or the larger size for 1 10 inch scar. I also think I overdo it though.
Will be six months in May, can't bloody believe it if I'm honest, been so close so many times though.
Well done!:)
That is bloody brillient Kirsty.
I found it impossible to ask for help when I did go to the doctors (still do and I know I need some)
hope your all OK
Hope you feel better today sweetheart *hugs*
When did you start feeling like this?
why are you feeling so down?
I seem alright. I'm hoping it lasts much longer than it nronally does for me.
i dont have any idea-just things on my mind-it makes no sense-i have no reason-im so sorry
I get like that alot as well, what I try to do is find something to do in order to take my mind off it. like piss about on wiki looking stuff up or just go out for a walk.
have you got anything you could do?
i dont know-im talkin topeople on msn but one includes my ex who im still trying to get rid of-im so sorry-i know others have more serious problems and i feel so stupid-why cant i just stay happy-i hate myself so much-sorry
a bit but hes not the sole cause i dont think-im really sorry-i dont know whats going on in my head-i wish i was dead
