		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160; Yeah, you read it right, hopes and dreams. That's the only thing keeping me from doing something really stupid right about now,&#160;BUT, i'm finally knocking on the door of happiness. For like 6-7 months all i've been able to think about is accutane. Accutane, accutane, accutane. Well I called tons of dermatologists today and after pissing off every one of them I finally found one that offers financial aid, HELL YEAH. I'm currently working under the table doing construction with my dad so I was able to get a Fikah form, don't know if that's how you spell it but it basically proves i'm unemployed, and it shows how much money i've made in the past three years. So, since i'm currently "unemployed" and living with my dad, I should be able to get on it.<br />
&#160;<br />
&#160;&#160; With the financial aid, derm visits will only be $30 a month and bloodtests should be anywhere from $30-$60 dollars, that's about $100 a month for the derm visits, versus like $2-300 a month so that's good. Also, apparently accutane at Costco is super cheap, like $150 a month. So at $250 a month for about 6 months my whole accutane journey should only cost me $1,500 dollars. I fucking hope Costco really has cheap accutane prices, if any of you buy your accutane from Costco please feel free to tell me how much your paying along with quantity and mg's.<br />
&#160;<br />
&#160;&#160; When I called all the derms I asked every one of them if they would still treat me throughout my course if I bought the accutane online, and surprisingly they didn't say no because of iPledge, they said no because it's not their product, those are the exact words, they won't do my monthly visits because i'm not buying accutane from them. So I was like so basically, you won't help me because your not getting the maximum profit you could be getting and they said no, we won't do it because it's not our product. Which means they won't do it because they're can't profit off the accutane i'm buying, which is stupid because they wouldn't anyways, the pharmacy would. UGHHHH. Oh they also won't test the online accutane to see if it's actually accutane, I told them that buying accutane online could be potentially life threatening because you don't know what your really getting without testing it, an that'd i'd still be paying for the test themselves and they said it doesn't matter, you have to buy our accutane.<br />
&#160;<br />
&#160;&#160; Just wanted to let you guys know even though i'd be paying them to test the accutane, they would still rather risk my life over a little bit of extra cash. Dermatologists are a cash company, they only want money, this is why they make you try all sorts of other treatments before going on accutane, not because they care about your health, but because they want to take as much of your money as possible. If the government really cared about your health they wouldn't put pesticides in crops, steroids in cattle, or poison in water. They wouldn't sell cigarettes, or alcohol, they wouldn't serve processed food to all the children in school. Just a heads up, don't believe anything your derm tells you, go there knowing what you need, and if they say something, don't take it as fact, do your own research about everything they tell you, ultimately you are the customer, and what you say goes, don't forget that.<br />
&#160;<br />
&#160;&#160; So to sum it up, at the end of this month i'm moving in with my mom, she will pay all the bills, and I will sit at home for six months straight&#160;until my skin clears up. Once I go to my first derm visit I will start my accutane journal, probably at the end of this month,&#160;I will update probably every week, I will take pictures and post them in the updates, and I will also make youtube videos with a link in my updates, just so you can see how my skin looks "in person", pictures can't show everything. So if you want to subscribe to my stuff, add meand you'll get to see me go thorugh hell for six months, and come out shining. Anyways, i'm gonna go dream of the day I have clear skin again, if you have any advice on what to stock up on please let me know, because I won't be leaving my house for the first couple of months during the initial breakout.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160; Okay so I basically put this picture up because I couldn't put it up in a post, I was trying to explain how much sugar is really in drinks, and how important it is to only drink water. For those of you that don't know, sugar is horrible for your skin, it causes your hormones to go crazy, which is essentially, why acne exists in the first place. So if you drink any of these products, or anything else for that matter, you need to fucking stop. Now.]]></description>
