The fear of my own wrist is such a struggle for me, but people (like my friends) take it like a joke and purposely me show my their disgusting blue veins. just the thought of that makes me gag. I hate my wrist with a burning passion, I feel like it'll explode with blood if I bang it on something, or I'll die if someone touches it. I began to cry once because I accidentally touch my nasty veins while washing my hands. When ever something accidentally touches my inner wrist I get lightheaded and shakey like my wrist is going to somehow open. I especially hate it when people talk about cutting, I've never even done it yet it makes me want to puke. I can't even think about it without getting weak in the hands and cringe. Sometimes I try to get over my fear and wear bracelets or scrunchies but nope! only make it worst, the fact that its touching my wrist and pressing on my veins is TERRIFYING. (even handcuffs. ew. i will never wear those ever.) I also hate that I'm so pale and skinny, that just makes my veins so much more noticeable. It's a horrible struggle to have a fear of your own body part, even though it may be rare, some people like me have it and are really sensitive about it so dont go around GRABBING MY WRISTS. thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
