Not two Pumps

Hello

I am on my 5th week of Dan's Regimen and using it morning and night with one pump of BP. I think my skin will never be able to get used to two whole pumps and I don't think i will need that much IDK.

When i was on Proactive i would use it once at night and in the morning just clean and moisturize. I would have clear skin but about two times a month i would get a HUGE pimple. It was big and would take a week to go away and then the mark would remain for awhile. I prefer 5 small/medium pimples a month to 5 HUGE ones. Soooo i am thinking a half a pump morning and night along with the rest of the regimen and this way have 24/7 protection against acne. IDK what do you think? Have you tried morning and night (less than two Pumps) and just night? If you have which was better?

Any input is appreciated, Thanks

How does acne affect your personality?

Ok so this is my third and final question. (it's 4:00 my sleep schedule is so fu**ed. i was writing this now it is later and i am putting it on the computer )

How does acne affect (affect or effect?) your personality?

I have heard some people express that acne makes them more pessimist or more depressed and i'm just curious as to how it afffects your personality.

I'd say acne can make me look like a prick(not sure what that word means but i mean like a snobby person-easily irritable person). I'd say it affects my personality cause i do not let many things happen to me for fear of a pimple. Example a friend goes to hug me and i push their hair away so that it doesn't get in my face. My mom wants to give me a kiss OOPS no she can only give me a kiss on my nose cause anywhere else may cause a pimple. If i'm tired i cannot show it cause people will start to say "just lay your head there" HA!!!!!!! Yeah right my head also means my face so NO. So yeah i seem stuck up and like a prick cause i am "Oh, don't touch me" ( i seem like such a bitch) So how does acne affect your personality?

PS: i am finally sleepy. Good night all. Time to put my cloth on my pillow and sleep on the very edge of it

(that was last night)

To what lenghts does ance take you?

My second Insominiac question

To what lengths do you go to prevent acne?

I'd say that i go to high lengths. i think i revolve my life around my acne.

Morning: I take 2 hours to get ready mostly thanks to acne, if i didn't have acne i think it would take me like and hour. I am almost always late to everything cause applying concealer is tricky (any tips?) so there is never a definite timing to how long that will take. Whatever lotion i use on my body better be non-comedogenic (curel) cause it may end up on my face and cause acne (no it won't, but still i have to be sure ). I do not wear my hair around my face cause i know for a fact it will cause my to break-out. I almost dropped out of school (so stupid) cause i would go maybe 2 to 3 times a week when my skin was acceptable. when i say Hi to friends i have to make sure they do not touch my face cause i fear a pimple (funny how bumps scare us ). OH; what's that friends you want me to go to the pool with you? i can't cause "i'm busy""I'm on my period (the best excuse; sorry guys)""i don't like the pool" ACTUALLY the epidermis is not up to my standards. If i touch my face on accident or something touches it i rush to the get a cotton swab and put alcohol on it to "disinfect" the area which is probably not the best thing to do. I try so hard to wash my face like clock work every 12 hours but it's difficult. If i cannot was y face (for whatever reason) at the time i had to then i am pissed and take it out on people when really its not their fault When i greet people (like a gatherings or parties) and i have to say hi to ALL those people i am just thinking about what they have on their faces cause it will then be on mine (i'm Hispanic/Latina and to greet people one must give a kiss on the cheek but really it's more like cheek to cheek).
Night: When i go to bed i put a fresh clean cloth on my pillow every night to "prevent" dead skin cells from accumulating and then aggravating my acne prone skin.

So yeah thats me.

Scariest Dream You Have Ever Had

What is the scariest dream you have ever had and have you ever dreamed of acne? (i am just curious and i have never had an acne dream so i have no idea what a dream like that would be like) (i couldn't sleep last night and some questions popped in my head and this is one of them) I would love to hear your scariest dreams (i love being scared and at the same time hate it: It's a love hate relationship; all relationships have problems

1. I remember my scariest dream so clearly and i think that what made it so scary was the realism of it and i still do not know if it was really a dream. So I was sleeping and it was as if i had awaken. So there i was laying on the edge of my pillow (I do this cause that way whatever product my hair leaves on my pillow will not end up on my face, i'm press about it, so 1/3 of my pillow is free) and i opened my eyes and the DEVIL on the other edge of my pillow(hey does it have acne too:lol:) just staring at me So it was raining and lightening outside and the lightening would flash and sometimes the devil would be there and sometimes he would not. I was paralyzed with fear. I analyzed myself and my behaviour after that dream to see if maybe i was doing something wrong to receive this devil visit but could not find any reason. I was EXTRA nice the next day The dream may not sound scary but it scared the crap out of me

2. I have never had an acne dream.
