Hey, I'm Phoenixbalm and have had severe acne for 2 years now.
First off, I'd just like to say, thank you, to all of acne.org's members, for just being here - you guys are just incredible, couldn't have got myself to this stage without you all. You've helped me through a lot, and my appreciation is unending. OK so here goes, another generic accutane log likely to play part in convincing other acne sufferers out there to go a knockin' on their dermatologist's door and asking for the stuff. I'm posting pictures of my condition 1 week before starting (02-07-09) This is the day after I went to see the dermatologist. I'm waiting for blood test results next wednesday, where I'll get the prescription, so should be started by the end of next week - obviously there won't be much posting before then, but just thought I'd lay out the log in advance. I'm going to update this log pretty much daily once I begin, but do forgive me if I miss a day every now and then!
Do you ever get that feeling where all your friends and the people you know around you complain about their problems, and you say nothing about your acne to them, because it's humiliating and it drives you mad, because you would trade their life with yours any day? I get this every bloody day I live - I get it with my friends, my girlfriend, the idiots at my school - They are all so fucking fortunate. Sometimes I really would like to tell them to go fuck off, because I'd be interested to see what they'd say if they saw these pictures. Now before I go saying I'm unfortunate and WOE IS ME! I'd just like to say, I am very, very thankful to whatever higher power (if there is one) gave me the life I've got. My situation is a lot better than 99% of the rest of the world, I am presuming. I do, however, believe people with acne should bloody well have the right to feel shit, because let's be honest people, acne can ruin your life. For two years now I've had the quiet pattern of going to school, hating every moment of it, trying to hide my face and trying to sit comfortably, whilst my back puts my through hell, coming home, some nights just pretty much breaking down and going to bed generally bunged up. I've spent absolutely ages using every moment of spare time researching ways to treat it - accutane looking like the only answer. Long story short - CAN'T FUCKING WAIT TO START! Side effects may be bad, but boy, I am so ready to say goodbye to this depressing, restraining existence. |
