Does anyone else feel this way?

 

I used to just have face and back acne, and that was bad enough, but now it has spread to my chest and my neck.

 

I feel like a monster. I don't feel feminine anymore, pretty, or sexy. I don't even feel like a woman.

HELP!

 

I used to only get acne on my face and back. But since as recent as December 2012, for whatever reason, the left side of my neck has completely broken out and so has my chest and it's on my breasts too! IT'S ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING AND HUMILIATING. I don't even feel like a woman anymore. I don't feel pretty at all, I don't feel feminine at all, and I don't feel sexy. I feel like a monster.

 

Does anyone have any solutions on how to quickly fix this???

I recently ordered Acnease, but I just got the regular "Moderate Acne Treatment" kind, not the kind specifically made for body acne. I can't afford both. Has anyone had good results with that?

 

I put BP 5% on my neck at night but am afraid to put BP anywhere on my body that is clothed because I'm very, very scared that even when I do take a shower in the morning I won't clean it off well enough and it will bleach my clothes.

 

After I shower in the morning I put foundation on my neck - do you think that is probably aggravating it more? But I can't help it -- I'm humiliated to go out without covering it up.

when people say you're attractive, but you can't believe it because of your acne?

A person could tell me 10000 times over and over that I'm pretty but I'll never 100% feel it with my skin this way. I still think I'm "gross" and feel like I look disgusting no matter how many times I receive a compliment.

And I always wonder to myself, how amazing would my self-esteem be if I didn't have acne?!
I mean, I like my facial features. I'm sure I would be really confident if not for my skin and it kills me that there is just ONE thing holding me back from really liking myself. It's held me back for way too many years now.

Just started using Erythromycin (3%) and Benzoyl Peroxide (5%) Topical Gel and my face looks even worse than it did before I started using it a few days ago. Is it supposed to get worse before it gets better? If that's the case, then how long before it gets better? This looks so awful...

Or can someone recommend me a face lotion that I can use with it that won't break me out?

Ugh, when will this end... I won't be a teenager anymore in a few weeks and my face still looks like a pizza.

I'm going on 20 in August. I started getting pimples here and there in 6th grade, but my bad acne really began the summer I turned 13.

My teen years are almost over! Is this done yet?!

People have told me I'm pretty, and I think I'm finally leaving my awkward ugly teenage girl days, but I still don't FEEL pretty because of my acne. I only do when I put on make-up and can't see the texture of my skin, but the second I step into better lighting and see all those bumps showing even with my make-up on, I feel absolutely DISGUSTING. I just wish it would end so I could love myself. Because I just can't. This has become a part of me and I feel so terribly gross even if people compliment me.

Also, some guy I was interested in and was texting for awhile until he stopped, posted a facebook status recently about how he wanted a girl with natural beauty and not wearing a pound of make-up. And I wondered to myself if maybe he wasn't that interested in me because I wear too much make-up. And all I could think was, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE. I HAVE to wear a pound of make-up.

It's so unfair. I would flaunt natural beauty if I could, but that's nowhere near an option!

When will this end?!
