What I've Learned About Rosacea : Don't Obsess About Your Skin

Stop checking your face in the mirror all the time. When it comes to how your face looks, you are your own worse critic. Look at faces around you. Almost no one has perfect skin, even those without rosacea. No one, but you, is checking your face under the bright bathroom mirror, using a magnifying glass. For the periods of time, when you look frighteningly awful, surround yourself with understanding friends, family, and co-workers. By the way, when you're checking out other faces, you're going to see people who seem to be blissfully unaware that they have rosacea. I'm not completely sure this is a bad thing.
