I got called ugly one time in a hospital and it still gets to me
I know this story is going to sound crazy and made up, but it happened about a year ago. I went to the hospital because I had to get my eye checked. I got a small wood piece in my eye from work, which was irritating, and I wanted to get it removed. When I arrived at the hospital, the nurse took me into a room with two beds and a curtain in the middle. I was on one bed while the nurse went to get something for my eye. On the other side of the curtain, there was a woman. I couldn't see her clearly, but I heard her voice. There was also a friend with her. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw one of them peeking through my curtain, and the other one asked who was there. They said it was an ugly dude with a receding hairline. It really hurt me because at that time my hairline was starting to recede, so I was very insecure that they noticed it. It still gets to me sometimes. I don't even want to believe it happened, but it did And I guess that’s why I have body dysmorphia .
