I'm so sorry that you feel bad about your back. I think almost everyone has something that they feel bad about in their appearance.

I had a meltdown a few weeks ago because I got a bad haircut and felt very overweight because I gained a few pounds. I had to remind myself many times that my body is not really "me" - the real me is inside; my personality, emotions, etc. Anyone who is really your friend won't be concerned about what your back looks like - they will like you because you are who you are on the inside.

I hope you feel better soon. Sending hugs and concern.
