I think i'm going into my 5th year neutral.gif and its probs worst at the moment because i'm in the middle of an initial break out due to accutane lol, it was gradually getting worse each year though.

I've had it for 4yrs.........I'm 18 now.


It was at its worst when I was 16. I was prescribed Duac gel and it cleared up 95% of the acne but i started to become immune to it so the acne slowly came back.

I've started seeing a Dermatologist and he prescribed Accutane straight away, I've done all the tests and i'm waiting for the results. *fingers crossed*

6th grade until now. I probably wouldn't have acne is if wasn't for my "Rubbing Alcohol" regimen in 6th grade.

So that's... Four years? Five? Doesn't matter. I'm hoping it's just hormonal.

6 years? I was 8 when i got it, and i've had it moderate since. I cant actually recall when it was the worse, in my head I measure the worse as when the most people were noticing and teasing me for it and that was probably when I was 11

I started to get acne since 12. I am 17 now so 5 years. It was worst during 2006 when I was 15. 2006 is the worst year of my life. I wish I could get amnesia and forget about it.

16 - 31 = 15 years

I was prescribed Accutane when I was 21, when it was at it's worst. I'm thankful to be past that dark time in my life. It's not nearly as bad now, but I still deal with it.

Live and learn.

I can't remember if I was 16 or 17 when the acne started. I am now 30, and the last 5 years have been the worst my acne has ever been.

ever since i was 14 it started to become slowly worse. i think it was because i was living in a humid sticky hot place with pollution and shit for a year. but it didn't affect me like it did since march. u.s. people can be real assholes

the real question is do u hate yourself because of your acne or the person you became because of it.

I've had acne for three to four years. The worst its been is probably the past weeks because I've been trying out products that made my skin just plain bad. I've gone back on ProActiv now.

Wow 8 that was young. Probably since it came early it will leave early.

Um i got mine when i was 13 i think. The worst would have to be like a week ago when i switched from Proactive to Clean and Clear maybe it was the initial breakout but i just didn't stick around to find out lol.gif So about 5-6 years with acne.

Ha. I've had it since the fifth grade. >.< Gosh, I used to be kinda cute back then. I hate looking at photos of me when I was little. :[ But yeahh. I even wore cover-up in the fifth grade, and now it's an addiction. I haven't gone anywhere without it in a loooong time, until a couple days ago when I did because my skin is starting to look nice. But yeah, so 4 years.

I started getting an occasional pimple (like maybe 1 every 6 months) in 7th grade, but it got pretty bad (well, not horrendous, but it was pretty embarrassing anyway) at the end of 9th grade and into the summer. Now, it is pretty calm and the 3 zits I have right now aren't noticeable at all because I keep them well covered with makeup.
