How can I become less self-..

I am a 17 year old male, and I tend to be very self-conscious. I have always been in a way but it has gotten a lot worse recently because of this skin problem called keloid (you can look it up on google, some pictures are pretty graphic, but mine aren't as bad). Currently, there is no real cure for it, so I figure that I just need to LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT. There is no getting away from having people look at me in a weird way unless I just lock myself home. Whether I feel like the best looking guy, or the ugliest thing in the world, how people see me will always be same. But the truth is I'm always very aware of this keloid on my neck and my appearance in general so how can I become less self-conscious? Any advises?

honestly ....i have no idea!!....it's too true that people won't stop looking you that way...and you can't blame them for it!!....i said forget about them..you can ignore..i don't think that could be that easy..but at least u can't try....right??...sometimes u ignore your own condition and everybody else does too...i really don't know why....but if you don't give it importance then no one would!!....
