Back my Freshman year of HS, I had very awful acne which made my overall time much much worse.
I began to get a few pimples in back in grade eight, but it wasn't too severe & I noticed it was happening to a few others as well, so I didn't care too much. However, once HS roles around, it broke out with a vengeance. It was likely in part due to the fact school environments are never the most clean, combined with the shit diet we're fed -which I ofc indulged in fully at the time- but ofc genetics are king here.
Both my parents tried to give me bluepilled coping mechanisms to deal with it:

It opened me up to so much more abuse than I already should have been- as if my spergy behavior & other failos such as my hairline+forehead weren't enough.
I also spent tons of time researching methods, creams, ailments, or whatever could be used to possibly help me out. Granted, things did clear up, but the psychological damage remains there.
If you had acne badly, you will know how I feel. People view you like you're a plague victim, it's almost as if having acne serves as some kind of marker that you're a genetic piece of trash. That you're in some way, flawed genetically & unworthy of being even treated as a human being with worth.

- "I had acne but still dated foids!"
- "My brother(moms side) had acne just as bad as you but he still got gfs eventually!"
- "I see plenty of other kids with acne"
