I HATE it when people judge me based on my scars...not to mention inflict more pain on me because of it.

Eww... what an arsehole.
I know its hard when people think of it as just being 'silly' or 'pointless' - I dont think they realise how much pain were really in and what it puts us through.
Not everyone can, or will understand. Comments like that is what people like us have to get used to I guess *shrugs*
Hope ur okay xxx
