Battle with Acne

So today I will be starting my 5th month! I went to the dermatologist today and he put my on 80mg now. He told me to take 40mg with breakfast and then TWO 20mg with diner. The reason he is having me take two 20mg is because I I don't tolerate the 80mg I can always go back to 60mg. So I will pick that up at the pharmacy tomorrow and hopefully they will hav...

So yesterday I forgot to take my pills and I didn't even realize until this morning when my dad mentioned something about them. I already got a few new pimples, two which are cysts. I'm not sure if its from not taking the Accutane yesterday or I just happened to have a breakout.  I also started using my sodium sulfacetamide 10% sulfur 5% face wash that my...

So last night me and some friends were up all night long at this event we went which was from 12am until 7am this morning. And basically I was awake for 27 straight hours. When I got home I was washing my face and I noticed my cheeks were covered in clusters of little tiny whiteheads! So I have no clue what happened! Lat night I put on some makeup after n...

So I have two giant cysts on my forehead right now. Not really pretty and not easy to cover. I also have some blackheads still in my nose. For some reason those just never go away! I also have quite a few scabs from recent pimples and I still have quite a few little bumps under my neck. Besides that things are pretty good (: I'm just really hoping to have...

So now I have transitioned into 60mg a day. And tight now in pretty sure I'm in my initial breakout that happens every time I increase my dose! But luckily this time it's not that bad. I also stopped wearing makeup Because it would just peel off my face during the day and that's not really pretty lol. Also now everyone keeps asking if I'm sunburnt lol. I...

So I just wanted to update you guys on how my skins doing since my dose has been increased. So far it's not too bad. I have two cysts. One above my eyebrow and one on the side of my forehead. Although they are small and not too noticeable. I also have two pimples on my cheek that are now scabs. One that was right above my eyebrow that is now a scab and on...

So I don't really have any updates on my skins progress since its the same as a few days ago but I have a story about getting my new prescription.So for the last three months I've been on Claravis even though my dermatologist gave me a prescription for Absorbica. So they first month this happened I told him they put on that instead and he said it was fine...

So my 4th month is just about to start! In the middle/end of my 3rd month my skin had terrible breakouts! But over the last week it improved and now I have quite a few scabs and dry patches, along with one cyst, a few whiteheads, and some blackheads. I also have lots of red marks.So basically my dermatologist increased my dose. So for the first two weeks...

Getting a lot more breakouts. I have breakouts all over both of my cheeks and I'm getting a few on my forehead. My dermatologist definitely should have upped my dose last time I was there and now he'll have to do it for this month since I'm still breaking out. Also I can hardly wear makeup anymore since my skin is so dry and flaky. I really hope to have c...

Haha not really its day 75! I think... Well the reason for my title is that I feel like I've been on Accutane for forever and 9 billion years. And I'm slowly going out of my mind. My acne is still here, just when it seems to get better my skins like oh no! Lauren can't have clear skin! Lets give her 5 cysts, tons of black heads, and throw a bunch of white...
