Past 6 months to a year ive seen a lot of new moles appear on my body and face.
i am 22 years old and always heard new moles after 20 arent common.
Just this morning i found what i think is a mole its completely flat but with a reddish brown tint, i dont know if it is a mole but my family said it isnt..but its completely flat.
How will my anxiety ever go if shit like this keeps happening.

That's really not true about moles not appearing after 20. Doctor google says that but my real doctor said they pop up throughout life. I got so many moles when I was 27 I went to the skin doc and got the all clear. I'm sure your mole is fine but if you want to go to the skin doc for a full body scan it will put your mind at ease.

What about the colour?
I thought it was normal colour because I'm colour blind lol
but when I asked my sister if she thought it was a mole she said it looks like a cut because it was reddy pinkish, and my mum said the same thing.
It's not a cut though because it's underneath the skin and completely flat.
It's quite small but when I stretch the skin it's clearly a small round circle.

ABCD's of moles A for asymerical the mole should be symetrical meaning if you cut it in half it should be a mirror image. B for border the borders should be well defined. C for colour it should be the same color throughout it should not be speckled. So yes it can be pink or red I have a few that color. It shouldn't be different colours like brown blue and red in one mole. D for diameter, it shouldn't be larger than a pencil eraser. Now I have large moles and some that have different colours in them but I had them checked out and they are normal so it doesn't mean that anything is wrong.
