Then it started to appear like crazy on my face. I tried so many things from proactiv to anti biotics to topicals. At the end of my senior year of high school my face broke out like crazy so i made an appointment with the derm. (which took FOREVER since it wasnt a private practice) She put me on antibiotics and topicals and told me to consider accutane. We schuduled another appointment for the middle of summer. By then my acne was doing suburb and all i had was red marks and she told me there was no need for more antibiotics.Well i entered my first year of college with only red marks that seemed like they were fading (very slowly i might add) but then around november-december i broke out crazy again and went back to the derm. She told me that i really should take accutane now and referred me to the derm that dealt with accutane. Again i had to wait 3 months. Those three months i had horrible red marks but not many actives. Because of this i decided to hold off of accutane and kept delaying my appointment with the accutane derm. i had to suffer the remaining 6 months of college with very prominent redmarks. which took forever to go away. Even though i did not have many actives, the redmarks killed me. I felt that it was a better idea to start my accutane in the summer rather than at school so i set up an appointment for the beginning of summer which was 2 weeks ago.
Because of finals, I did not get much sleep and that directly affected my skin and i broke out a bit. I thought nothing much of it cause as we all know, acne and sleep are inversely related
After finals i came home and thought since its the summer and i dont have to loose sleep over anything my acne would get better. nope. Since summer started my skin has gone CRAZY. breaking out everyday even with 9-10 hours of sleep! 
Anyways i went to the derm 2 weeks ago and asked me tons of questions of past threatments etc. and i answered with tons of things and was pretty sure he was going to reconmend me accutane after hearing a novel worths of threatments. Nope. He told me he felt that i havent been on antibiotics enough and was like "antibiotics can take a while before you see any results, it can take up to 3,6,9 months for results" NINE MONTHS?? are you fucking with me? He told me all these things about how dangerous accutane is and and the shit id have to put up with like ipedge and monthly visits ( all this crap ive already knew, thanks to acne.org
) So i was told him, Look, ive tried things for almost 2 years and nothing has worked and i've researched a ton on the internet about accutane. Then he cuts in and tells me, "reguardless of what you've read on the internet, accutane is more serious than that.." He made it sound like I did like 5 mins of research on a random ass site. OBVIOUSLY he hasnt heard about acne.org acne/accutane specialist my ass 
But then at the end of the conversation he told me to read this binder reguarding iPledge and get my bloodwork done and come back in 3 weeks. I read the binder in the car and it all information that i already knew.. that bastard
And at the end of the appointment. the derms assisstant asked if I should be put on antibiotics for the time being and he says, for 3 weeks? whats the point, continue topicals. WELL, from my guess, if he got me to get my bloodwork done and didnt make me take antibiotics on the spot, that means he'll put me on accutane right right? haha. I guess i'll find out on thursday... plus, ive broke out like crazy these past 2 weeks, maybe its a message that god is sending to the derm, "GIVE THIS FUCKING KID ACCUTANE!" what if he still says no? should i start crying? haha maybe i should practice or something.
sorry for the gigantic post,never wrote more on a internet forum in my entire life.
