Hi. Just came across this and I'm happy to see someone "older" taking Accutane (not saying that you're old, just that a majority of people on here are in their 20s). I'm 36 and am on day 8. I'm also nervous about the severity of the side effects. I took Accutane in my early 20s and did not have terrible side effects. Not sure how I'll react 15 years later. I'll just tell myself that a few months of crappiness will be worth it.
