I'm feeling so fuckig worthless and I hate it fuck I want to pull my hair out. I'm going crazy....

I feel like people will always know I'm a junky even when I'm 10 years clean because of track marks and I'm embarrassed and ashamed..


That is all.

Unfortunately they never go away although lasers do make a huge improvement. Tattoos are also an option. Look at it this way, if you reach 10 years clean your tracks will be a badge of courage, showing how heavily you used and demonstrating how far you have come on sheer willpower and stamina. Half full versus half empty, train your mind to see everything as half filled.

It really depends on how bad your tracks are and what type of skin you have. Mine start to fade after a couple months of not shooting up.

Mine turned into white scars along my veins... I was going to lie and say I scratched my arm but seeing as they are directly over each vein, I would look like a retarded liar.

I want to put it last me but I have a constant reminder and it makes me sad but also makes me want to use.

I really hope others think before they shoot up because it's a life time reminder when you have scars..You will regrett it

. I am tan skinned so these white scars look really visible and I know how people view addicts especially injecters.. Like we are gross trash and it just makes me so sad and Mad really...

I've still got some tiny white marks on my veins as well. They are barely noticeable next to the birth defects and scarring injuries I endured as a small child, That's how I try to put mine into perspective.

Still, I wear long sleeves most of the time. Here in the Pacific Northwest where it is cold most of the year, one can dress this way.

I can't wait for winter where I can hide :(

Sorry about y'all scars that terrible.

I was told only nurses doctors and fellow addicts will know what they are but I still feel selfconscious
