I work in healthcare where masks were required when I first started. Now it’s not mandatory but u can wear it if u want.

I have been working there for almost two years and most of my coworkers have no seen my full face. I am too insecure to take my mask off. Sometimes I’ll do it and I can just see the shock on someone’s face looking at mine. And ik it’s my fault bc it’s probably shocking to see my face after all this time but like I just hate feeling so deeply insecure. I just wanna be able to take my mask off and feel free and not care what anyone thinks. I haven’t told anyone this. People just think I wear it bc I’m scared of covid or something.

I don’t wear a mask anywhere else, it’s only at work. I even went out with some coworkers one time and they saw me without a mask but then again my hair was done and I had my full makeup on… I can’t come to work looking all done up like that. When I do, I feel gorgeous and beautiful, but my bare face and messy hair is just absolutely horrendous. This is really awful and I know I need therapy badly. I just wanted to know if anyone had some words that can help me.
