So I have a few weeks before I start Accutane but I am so excited and anxious I decided to get a jump start on the log. I originally wasn't going to start a log, but it's a great way to keep track of my progress, while also complaining to people who understand! I feel like lately all I have been doing is talking about how I am going on Accutane. It's almost like a defense mechanism to say, "look I know my acne looks terrible right now."
A brief little sob story  I, as everyone who finally gives in to accutane, have had acne for years and years. I would say for at LEAST 10 years. I am now 23, out of college, and work as a middle school teacher. I feel like I AM a middle school student though, being stared at everyday and having to worry about my skin 24/7. I know I have read some logs about teachers with acne and how they feel their students are staring at their skin the whole time!!I have been super scared to start Accutane and finally have reached my breaking point. I want to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I've recently went into hiding mode  , as my skin has been fantastic for a while, and would rather not let everyone see me like this! I've had my ups and my downs with my skin. It always seems to clear up in time to convince me not to go on accutane. I had severe acne in high school, and since then persistent mild-moderate acne throughout college. Now I would say it's somewhere in the moderate range. I am counting down the days until I get to begin my short bumpy road (no pun intended) to clear skin.  I will attach pictures as I get closer to my start date... |
