[IWantASmoothFaceNow]

Maybe i just need a place to vent but this sucks. I feel that I would be such a moere confident and better person if i had clear skin. Maybe thats a bad thing to say but its the truth. It affects me at school, with girls, with everything. I think if i had clear skin my life would be different. the only thing that seemed to work for me was minocycline but then it seemed to stop working so well. I am back on it now and it seems to be working but not as well. I have tried mixing in some sasylic acid , or benzoyl peroxide wash or 2.5% gel, or glycolic acid, green tea,ester-c, several derma-e products, including DERMA-E ALPHA LIPOIC/GREEN TEA lotion, and DERMA-E DMAE/ALPHA/C-ESTER. What do you guys think would be the best combo to mix in with Minocycline. Also I dont know what it is but sometimes my face just get so oily, even when the products i use say oil free. should i wash once in morning and apply benzoyl and once at night and apply benzoyl or will that overaggrevate it. I am so frustrated i just feel like going on Accutane but have heard of the horrible side affects. Please any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks for listening to my rant, G

I went on tane to get rid of my acne hopefully permanently... It was only mild - moderate, but it may came back, and if it does, it better come back less severe than it was. Yeah, I know about the side effects.. My vision might be fucked up a bit now, and my eyes keep twitcing. They've been twitching constantly for 3 weeks. My skin's dried out. I have rashes on my triceps, elbows and hands, and my bones and joints are KILLING ME. But I'm clearing up. And I should be clear soon. The initial breakout wasn't that bad... But I've only been on tane for 5 weeks... And YES I did have a breakout, you morons.. But yeah, I'm hurting my body, but I don't care anymore. I want to be clear.
