I have so many more tattoos I wanna get. some super meaningful others just part of me. But the biggest one I have always thought about it getting my back tattooed. This one is slightly a problem. I have suffered for more than half my life (12 years) with skin problems. In those 12 years I have never had a single day of clear skin. My skin also being what it is gets scarred very easily. So my skin is half covered in blemishes and half in red and purple scars from the blemishes. My back is something that I have always been beyond self conscious about. It has help me back from more than I care to admit. I dont know how to swim for fear of someone seeing my skin. I put off applying to suicide girls for years because of it (still one of my biggest worries) It stopped me from getting too close to boyfriends And I think decorating it with art would help me so much. But the problem is that you cant (to my understanding) get a tattoo over breakouts. And for me. Not having a single day without them. It means I cannot help to cover up and heal this part of me that has taken such a toll on my life. I hope one day I can find something to help. So that I can finally regain what this has taken from me. And then I call decorate my body with love
