BP treatment, Dan's Stuff

I just ordered two of the sixteen ounce bottles of acne.org treatment. (2.5 percent BP)
I am wondering how long this should last for a person that's already been on the regimen a couple months? I've been using about a finger and a half of NOTS BP, and planned to up it a bit in the next week or so.
With that in mind, should the supply I just ordered be a better bargain and last me a while?

My first clear(er) skin comment!

I've been on the regimen for over a month now and I KNOW there has been major improvements. I've just been wondering a lot lately if anyone's noticed at all.
Well, tonight while my family was lounging around watching the Packer/Viking game, my little brother just kept staring at me.
Finally he was like, "What happened to all your red spots?"

I could only smile.

He was truly confused that they weren't there... or at least, that they're far less noticeable.
It felt good.

I had to share.

Anyone else remember a first time (or a special time) when someone brought to your attention something that was obviously working with your skin for once??

Doing it efficiently.

Hi!

Since starting the regimen about a month ago, I have seen great results with my acne. My skin is still red and irritated but the breakouts themselves have all but STOPPED.

Now my question is this - for those following the regimen each morning and night, how long does it take you each time?
Between the applying and the waiting between the steps, I'm using about a half hour of my morning or more. I've been finding ways to save time by getting things that I need done done between the steps but I'm curious about anyone else out there that's found good ways to do this the RIGHT way, but to do it more quickly.

Any comments or advice?

No Wishes to be Alone...

Hello.
My story goes something like this:

I started getting facial acne at about ten/eleven years old. By the time I was twelve it had spread to my back and by this point, I had tried a plethora of OTC medications that never really made any difference. I quit trying for a while and counted on the acne fading itself. Sometimes I think I just ignored it during those years, but looking back, I remember doing things like swimming in a tee shirt to hide the bacne and wearing bangs that did NOT fit my face just to hide the break-outs around my forehead and temples. This, I realize, did not help the acne. But at the time, I didn't care. It hid it.
By the time I was fifteen, I was back to trying different things that never really worked. My doctor put me on some prescription cream medication that never really did much.
By seventeen, I had terrible back acne on top of the facial acne - as well as shoulder and chest acne and the occasional break-out wherever it decided to be.
I finally saw a real dermitologist who prescribed Tretinoin cream and put me on antibiotics. It took patience, but eventually I saw results like I never had before.
The thing was - the acne was still there. It was to a lesser degree, so I was fairly satisfied most of the time, but I remember thinking, "I've got to take these medications, AND go through a lengthy morning and night routine to take extra good care of my skin and I STILL don't have as good of skin as a lot of people that don't have to put in half as much effort."
I think that's what got me the most.
Still. It was better than it had ever been. I wasn't going to complain too much.

On the brink of turning nineteen, I lost my insurance and couldn't/cannot afford the monthly prescriptions, so I've been off of those for about seven months now.

My back acne flared up again faster than anything, though the shoulder, chest and even stomach acne were quick to follow.
When I was younger the facial acne was mostly on my forehead. It's still somewhat there, though the worst of it is on my chin and along the jawline.

I started wearing bare minerals make-up last year... make-up for the first time to cover it. Considering my personality type, I'm quite sure that just means I've grown desperate.
I was never really teased about my skin, certainly not regularly, but remarks have been made. And they're bothersome. Nearly depressing.
Even the remarks from clueless little children who really just want to know why I have "owwies" everywhere.
I pretend not to care. In fact, I don't think I've said the word "zit" or "pimple" or even "acne" out loud since I was a little kid. But really, that's because of shame more than anything else. This is the first place and time I've ever expressed any of my story/condition/thoughts/feelings on my skin and even though it's online, it feels awkward.
I've been trying ALL kinds of home-remedies, highly-recommended OTC products as well as some not-so-recommended OTC products. I've tried the at-home "cures" (all dozen of them and the "real" one) . . . I've studied up on its causes and such.
I've done ALL of this quite faithfully but very very privately. I have never had a friend or even SEEN a person in real life that has had acne a fraction of what I feel I've got.
It seriously makes me want to cry and curl up in a ball in bed and never get out when I hear young people or adults or teens get upset over an occasional break-out.
It's like, "That's what they think of a spot or two? What do they think when they look at me??"
Granted, I hide most of it the best I can, so I don't even know who all knows of my body acne. But still. I hate going the extra mile day in and day out every day to hide it. I hate that I have to. I hate that I feel like no one (and I mean no one) in the world can possibly understand. No one can possibly tell me what to do to make it better.
I'm sooo terribly tired of all of the conflicting information and conditions to the information out there.
From causes to products to what foods to avoid.
"Chocolate won't hurt you, it's not caused from that."
"DON'T eat chocolate or greasy foods, it'll make it worse!"
"Acne is hormonal."
"Acne is caused from bacteria outside."
"This product works wonders."
"That product stinks."
"Wash your face!"
"Don't wash your face more than once a day!"

I'm nearly twenty and I've struggled with this so long I wonder in agony if I always will.
I guess - I'm really just looking for someone to say, "I get it. I've got what you got. I've felt that. I feel it. You're not alone. Other people have it as bad as you do. Take heart."

And honestly? This is the first place I've ever seen where I can actually 'cry out' for that kind of feedback.
The first place that's given me hope that maybe if I can't be cured in the near-future... I'm not alone.
