Surprisingly no. I do get concern sometimes, which can be just as uncomfortable. However, it's a lot harder to tell if people are judging you, and sometimes its just not appropriate for them to be visible, especially if you are trying to impress someone.
But I do have a friend that knows about it, and I don't even care if she sees.
I guess it depends on the person for you to decide the level of modesty.
If you don't show it off and be obvious about it, then most people won't notice or bring it up.
Its a part of who I am, and yes I have problems, but just because it makes it more visible doesn't mean I have to be ashamed of it because people don't understand
It's good that you haven't met any one who's been nasty about it yet. I kept mine covered for years, I never wanted anyone to see. I only let my boyfriend see because obviously you can't help that! This is the first time other people have seen, and I'm very concious all day and still try and hide them. But I don't want to be ashamed of myself either. I didn't choose to be depressed.
Did you ever self harm and how do you cope with the scars?
