Today was great.. I had my first lab for A&P and my group aren't that wish.. I do wish I could work on my own, but oh well. And of course, I am very quiet, so i never talk, ha ha. I got a feeling they will say something like... "you don't talk much don't you?" All I do is laugh and smile.. they are kinda funny.
I've decided to cut down on exfoliating (I usually exfoliate everyday) and I think it's helping my skin! My skin has been feeling oddly itchy lately, and it didn't itch nearly as much today. I also have less flakes and my marks even look better too. I think I'll only exfoliate 2 times a week now. And, no new pimples today or little whiteheads 
Only thing that's getting me down now is this guy. We had a thing almost all of last year and he turned out to be kind of emotionally abusive. I'm almost positive he has narcissistic personality disorder. He's kind of pushed me around a lot and last night things kind of 'started up' again and just left me feeling kind of used, and empty. I still have feelings for this guy somehow even though he treated me pretty badly (he's one of the reasons why I'm so self conscious about my skin I think). It's just getting me down, but I'll get through it.
Dang it.. I have one active one near nose to the right. I am sure white heads will come out.. probably tomorrow. My skin looks very smooth and I don't see bumps, well, I see one that is getting inflamed, but won't be bad.
My scars aren;'t deep, but they are noticeable. Not sure if it is worth it to do the laser treatment. I will take pictures of my scars once the marks are gone to see if it is bad
It really honestly seems that when 1 person is having a good day, the majority of people on here are having a good day as well. Ive noticed a trend. For those of you that are struggling, keep your head up, de stress, and try to get your mind off your skin. Thats been my main focus the past few months. Ive been going fishing alot and being out in the open water in the ocean is so refreshing and peaceful, im sure it does wonders for my skin and well being. I urge everyone to do something that makes them happy and gets your mind off your skin. Whether its alone, or with someone, you need to do it. I love you all!
Well, on the contrary, my night basically sucked. I was long boarding (skateboarding) with friends and I took a nasty fall when I was going too fast. I scraped up my elbow and palm but also right underneath my chin kind of bad. I was really, really distressed at first, mainly because like I said, it has literally been PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM with the skin on my face. Like my skin will be great for a few days, and then something happens to f it all up. I was bleeding a bit and now the bleeding has stopped and basically looks like a scrape on my chin. The good thing is that it doesn't really look like a pimple or anything, it's just red and looks like I scraped myself. And it kind of sounds cool I guess to say I have a 'long boarding injury'. It is also not in an obvious place like my forehead or cheek or anything, it's like right underneath my chin but you can still definitely notice it.
Of course, I am worried about how it will heal. It doesn't look like a severe abrasion at all or anything but I am ALWAYS worried about this kind of stuff. I guess I'm going to the health center later today to make sure it looks okay and doesn't need more significant medical attention. And I feel like I'm just going to stay in all weekend cause I just want to keep this band aid on my face....to help hurry along healing.
I just really, really hope this ends up okay. I had a freakout last night because like I said it's been thing after thing with my skin and now I have to deal with yet another thing, an actual abrasion to my skin this time (and mid-sized too, not tiny). And it's going to be SO annoying to have to constantly explain to people what happened to me and say I fell while longboarding. Ugh. But like I said, the good thing is, it's not in an obvious place, it doesn't look like it'll scar too badly it's just inflamed right now, it looks like it'll heal fully in about 2 weeks and it actually looks kind of cool/BA (or maybe I'm just telling myself that). I'm really glad it doesn't look like a pimple or anything. I guess I just need to thank God that I didn't have a nastier fall and end up with a deep gash on my cheek or something. I would really like to go to the derm though, but I have no means to 
Maybe I'll schedule an appt.

YAY LONG BOARDING........oh and I got a huge breakout
Ultimate low. Nothing I do seems to work and every time I think my skin's really starting to improve it backtracks all over again. Also people who don't have this problem are so lacking in understanding it's ridiculous. I don't understand how some people can put no effort in whatsoever, eat whatever they want and do whatever they want to their skin and remain perfectly clear day after day while others who try so hard can't get a single clear day in like 7 years. It's like someone's sick idea of a joke. Sorry for the rant, just feeling really hopeless about my skin today
Grrr.. I have just one pimple and it is ugly. I bet people will look right at it since there's only pimple on my face. I think there will be like 2-3 whiteheads next to each other in one. I can see them a bit. The whiteheads should be visible tomorrow. I will have to pop them ;\ I see another forming, but won't be ugly.
Probably a whitehead wil come out soon. Funny how I got exactly the same one of the left side. I know how long it will last as it is very similar. It should minmize in 2-3 days.
Feeling good! The ACV continues to work wonders on my red marks. I have no new pimples this morning, so if the CandiZyme was causing any it seems to have stopped. I still have 3-5 pimples between my eyebrows but a couple came to a head so they'll be gone by this time tomorrow I bet. Still dealing with two pimples near my nostril, and a cluster on my left temple. Also I seem to be getting blackheads on my cheek which is completely new for me but I don't really care. I stopped taking Chromium after I read about its negative effects on the liver. Down to: Magnesum, Milk Thistle, Zinc, Glucomannan and CandiZyme. Plus ACV.

Leave whiteheads. They're far less noticeable than a popped pimple. Have you ever seen a whitehead on someone else's face? I haven't popped a whitehead in a month and it's helped a lot. Whenever I used to pop them it would make them look way worse, it'd make new whiteheads pop up around the old one, and it'd take a lot longer for it all to heal.

Lol. OK, I won't pop them. I really hate this kind of pimple where you get like 2-3 whiteheads in one. It is kinda big, grr. My skin was clearing up. Oh well, at least it won't leave acne scar. Winter approaching and I will be working at different shift which I will be able to sleep more. I used to sleep for 5-6 hours.
I am usually clear in the winter. So, more sleep, winter.. I will clear up a lot, hopefully. Once I am clear, I need to deal with bad acne scars. 
Well, the scrape on my chin has now basically scabbed over. It's mostly a thin scab with a bit more thickness in the middle where more damage was done. I'm still feeling a bit self conscious about it I guess. I saw a friend on the way to class and of course got the whole "What happened to your face??" thing....it's just going to suck having to explain to people what happened for the next week or so....I'm mostly just worried about healing because I really don't want a bad scar.
I'm really just so tired of how literally every week for the past 4 or 5 weeks something has happened to my face that bothers me. This is by far the most noticeable thing and I've seen people look at it and stuff while walking by. I sort of feel like it was just a bad dream but it's not and I'm not gonna wake up. I just feel.....I don't know. Really lost. I'm trying not to let it bother me, but it is. I'm trying to be strong. I called the psychologist today, hopefully will get an appt soon. I'm just so tired of feeling self conscious. WHY did this have to happen on my face.....if I had gotten a huge scratch on my arm or leg I wouldn't care but because it's on my face I just hate it. I hope to God it heals quickly and well. I hope in a week and a half or so the scab will have healed and everything. I just really hope it's just slightly discolored skin afterward or something and not this huge scar. I'm freaking myself out thinking about it....and it sucks. God, why did this have to happen? I fucking hate my luck.
Have a clogged pore on my cheek that's pretty red, and probably will turn into a pimple or 2. Whatever. I had an amazing night last night. I had 2 jack and cokes and a beer, and was around a lot of smoke, so I expected to get a pimple or 2. But honestly if that's the worst that happens, big fucking deal! The concert was amazing and I had a great time with the girl. It went perfect. She wants me to come back out for another concert in a month. See if I can make it work. And by the way, there were sooooooooo many people with acne and acne scars at the concert last night. One guy had some red marks all over his chin...some pretty deep ones, and his girlfriend or girl he was with was HOT!

Aha nice, I'm so happy for you bro!
Woke up to new breakouts yesterday and today. I suppose I can say these were maybe due to stress and coffee - I'm positive caffeine is a trigger of mine now after not having it for months but started having it again in recent weeks. (Which sucks because I love a good coffee)
I hate how gross and ugly acne can make me feel. It's not even a matter of whether I am or not (and I don't know either way) - it's just how I feel with it. It's hard for me to see past it, I don't understand how others could. I know that if I was without acne I would feel so much better about myself and be more confident etc.
It seems like this won't ever end. I'm sick of it.
I looked in a mirror at the hotel in Vegas to wash my face and I was so bummed. My red marks show so much. That white Bright light literally shows EVERYTHING! ugh. Pretty bummed. Goodnight
That's OK. Most lights aren't bright white. Some bathroom , like my college have white bright light which my face look horrible.
