Anxiety and Health: Jumpy

Jumpy

Today, I got a spray tan for the first time. Naked, I climbed into the booth. When the machine started I became frightened by the loud roar of the spray and couldn't breathe. I pissed myself out of fear. I now have river-like streaks down both legs where the pee washed my tan away. FML

Today, I went to get my spray tan before my semi-formal. After I applied lotion to the bottom of my feet as instructed, I went in the booth and began to start the tanning session. I lost my balance and fell right as the machine began to spray. I look like a spotted cheetah. FML

Today, I decided to spray tan myself. Five minutes later, I had to pee, so I did. Not only do I now have two orange stripes on my toilet bowl, but I also have two big white stripes on the back of my thighs. FML

Today, I used the tanning booth for the first time. Not only was I so white that I received first-degree burns all over my body, but I also forgot to remove my knee-high socks. FML

Today, while working at my tanning salon, a woman came in and I put her in a booth, which are all stand up. After she comes out, I go in to clean it and realize that floor is all wet. I questioned her about it and she replies, "Oh, I peed, that's not a drain?". FML

Tanned pits

Today, I was getting ready for the school swimming carnival and was running very late. I reached for my deodorant and sprayed it on. It was only when I was at the pool that I realized I had accidentally grabbed the spray tan and covered my underarms in it. FML

Today, I used a tanning bed for the first time ever, in an attempt to get a base tan for the summer. No one bothered to warn me that you shouldn't go the full ten minutes your first time. Now my skin is as red as my hair. FML

Today, my sister thought it would be funny to spray my face with my new tanning spray, which is only supposed to be used on arms and legs. I woke up and looked in the mirror to see an orange blotchy face staring back at me. My parents can't look at me without laughing. FML

Today, my girlfriend talked me into tanning in a tanning bed for the first time ever. I have never tanned before and didn't know you are supposed to ease into it. I tanned for 15 minutes in the "super bed" and have lobstered. My ass and nuts got the worst of it. FML

Today, I went to the tanning bed. I laid down in the bed and turned it on and the fan started blowing. There was a terrible smell and I thought it was the person before me. Then I realized it was just the fan blowing my sweaty feet towards my face. FML

Today, I decided to try a self-tanning lotion my friend had recommended. I put it on, and decided to take a nap. I woke up later and checked myself in the mirror, expecting to see a new, more tanned version of myself. I didn't. I'm now orange. FML

okay tanning beds have even more uv rays than "natural" tanning. if you use tanning lotion and go out it actually exposes yourself more to the uv rays in the sun. if you really want to be tan just use a lotion. even though i don't see the big deal anyway.

Wow. The machine was getting ready to spray you, not kill you. And to those idiots saying YDI because you got a spray tan, stfu, it's way better than cancer.

you peed out of fear? also, i'll never understand why people go tanning, spray or otherwise. just go outside in the summer (wearing sunscreen) and don't be stupid. being orange is pretty damn unattractive, and natural tanning doesn't cost anything.

Exfoliate like the wind! .. And then get some nice, do-it-yourself, gradual tanning moisturizer. It smells like crap, but it's easy, affordable, and wont make you look like a giant, walking orange. Kinda ew that you peed though. I mean, what about the next person that's gonna have to stand there to get their tan?

I agree that YDI for going for a spray-on tan; they're usually expensive and look fake. Either sunbathe for real, use a self-tanning lotion, or just stay pale and know that way you won't look like an iguana when you're 40. And learn to control your fear of loud noises.
