Not quite sure where to put this but please help

I've posted something like this before but no one answered or helped so i decided i would try again.

I have this massive paranoia about my stretchmarks. I feel like if I didn't have them I wouldn't be so ashamed of my stomach. I really want to get rid of them. I'm not quite sure how. But I am obsessed with being beautiful and stretchmarks are not. So I really need some ideas.

I know this post seems pretty shallow and self centered but think is what I have become. :(

not shallow or self centered at all! it's a natural worry, stretchmarks are the source of nightmares for anyone, really.

according to stuff i've researched most stretchmarks that are under a couple years old have a higher chance of fading over time than the darker, older ones. some suggest rubbing them twice a day? Like a rough massage basically, to move the skin cells around. I'm not sure how well that works, but it kind of makes sense but haven't tried it as of it

There are a few creams out on the market that are supposed to fade them, but they say it takes like 6 months to notice a difference. I have no idea if they work or not, haven't tried them. Although I should.... The stretchmarks on my thighs are pretty ugly.
