THINGS NOT TO SAY TO SOMEONE WITH ACNE
Sometimes we usually make comments that nobody asked for and we can be really hurtful to others, especially if it is a person with acne. We think we are helping but we are really making the situation worse for that person. Remember, you are never in the power to suggest or comment on another person's acne. It is hurtful and rude.
Acne is very common in the population, especially in adolescence, when we tend to be more vulnerable to the comments of others. Although it exists in different degrees of severity in people, for many it tends to be something that affects their self-esteem, since no one likes to go around with a face full of injuries and especially when everyone stops to observe you and to comment about it.
If you are one of these people, please, Stop! You may be unintentionally causing harm to others.
Among the things that are often said:
''Wow, did you see that pimple you have there?''
As if that person did not have a mirror in their house and could not see themselves. Of course they saw it, it's something you can not escape from, please do not ask that kind of things.''You should not wear makeup, it makes it worse.''
Although dermatologists recommend not to use makeup, it is not something that you should suggest since it was not you who studied and has the title. Also, do you think that person is amused to have to show themselves as they are and have everyone stare at them?''Have you used X home remedy?''
Please, do not suggest home remedies to a person with acne, it often only worsen their condition and that person in their search for something that will remove acne can apply whatever to their skin.''Oh, I also have an ugly face acne right now.''
This is one of the most hurtful comments you can make. Especially when you are a person who occasionally have an injury and the degree is not equal to someone with severe acne.''Do not touch your face''
It's easy to say but for some people it's impossible not to touch when you want to get rid of your acne, when it's something that bothers you too much or even when you have the urge to do so. Making these kind of comments will only make them feel more depressed and anxious about it.''Stop eating junk food''
In many cases acne is not even related to food.
So please, be careful with the comments you make.
Me parece muy bueno, hay que tener un poco de sensibilidad al tratar con el acné, a veces dura poco y otras no tanto.
Si, se puede ser muy hiriente sin saberlo!
