Flamingplatypus's latest blog entry got me thinking, why is it that it's usually our families that make us feel really bad about our skin and acne when they're the ones that are supposed to make us feel good/better about ourselves?
For example, almost every time I see my dad he says something that makes me feel like crap ("Your skin's all shiny. Is it supposed to be like that?", "Oh you look worse than the last time I saw you.", etc.). Why? It's not like he has it in for me and I do believe he means well in general. But c'mon! Any thoughts?
At the moment I have only two whiteheads on the face - no pustules - which is great. Got dry lips, a couple of small dry patches on the face, a very mild rash on the back of my right hand, and some minor lower back pain. Nothing I can't handle!

Its a double edged sword really.
also i think people don't always understand what affect acne can have on self esteem and confidence but keep your head you seem to be doing well buddy
