I've been doing my new "regimen" for a few days now and it seems to be going well. Everything is new except the diet, zinc and ACV. I quit a bunch of supplements, added C and D, and started washing my face. I have a good feeling that I'll look a lot better in a week or two.
This is basically it:
Wake up - drink two full glasses of distilled water. Remove oil build-up with a napkin (I should really get something better for that).
Minutes later - Have a monster bowel movement (feels great).
Each of the following are spread out by an hour or two. The idea is no water with foods.
Eat breakfast - oatmeal with flax seed, cinnamon and almonds, or just some almonds and baby carrots, or gluten-free waffles or pancakes. Take 1000 mg of Vitamin C and 4000 IU of Vitamin D3.
Drink two full glasses of distilled water.
Eat lunch - usually a gluten free bagel with hummus, plus baby spinach and cucumber. Sometimes soup or oatmeal. Take 1000 mg of Vitamin C and 30 mg of Opti-L-Zinc.
Drink two full glasses of distilled water, with some ACV.
Eat dinner - always includes a full bag of steamed frozen organic broccoli, carrots, cauliflower and green beans. Then I add either chicken, gluten-free pasta or quinoa and lentils. Take 1000 mg of Vitamin C and a spoonful of Organic Virgin Coconut Oil.
Drink two full glasses of distilled water.
Consume nothing else before bed.
Wash face with Johnson's head-to-toe foaming wash. Gently splashing lukewarm water, not using direct pressure from the showerhead.
Try to get 8 hours of sleep. Vitamin C should be helping with this... look up Adrenal Fatigue.
Optimistic.....today is the fourth day of my minimalist regimen, inspired by the caveman regimen, and I am noticing the blending of my skin tone (red marks fading), the drying of older pimples, and most importantly, no new ones. I feel awestruck though, that not using my faithful "cleanser, toner, double moisturizer" is actually working BETTER. We shall seeeee how this goes.

Likin' the optimism here )!!
Damn. You guys are all doing good, and my skin hasn't been looking good the past few days. I literally have not changed anything. It's been dry, red, and I've had a few new pimples pop up. No clue what's going on!
Like a fellow poster on .org said dont let acne control you
Be happy because you could have it worse but you dont !!! Besides come on you have that Awesome Juicer. You can have your own juice stand LOL Murph Juice
Anyways, I am feeling So CONTENT. Had too brush my teeth several times because i been cheesing it all day. Have to show my white trident teeth right
Its contagious so watch out !!!
Cheers * be blessed people !
My current breakout (that's lasted for about a month) is fading now that the womanly time has hit. It was very late this time round, so I think stress and my hormones have been kicking me a bit. I'm glad to see it going though.
I've also stopped using most man made chemicals on my face now. I noticed that a lot of the products I was using were making my face redder. I've been taking zinc for a couple of days and I think it's helping with skin renewal waiting times. However, now that I've been using all natural things I've noticed that my face has started to get oily sometimes. I actually regard this as a good thing because previously none of the oil ever made it out on to the surface, it just got trapped in the pores instead - and the spots that I do get are much more easily pushed out of the skin. I can actually push my skin now and dead skin cells etc come out of it, whereas previously they were incredibly difficult to get out and left lots of hyper prigmentation.
So overall I think my skin is a lot healthier now, even though it still has acne.
Having no freinds really hurts......im assuming I will get over it, and imbrace being alone...or at least that seems to be the general opinion of the internet. I just hope it doesn't take to long... I don't like not having any company
I kinda got used to it since I graduated high school 2 years ago . One of my only friends that I talk to on a daily basis went to Mexico yesterday for 2 weeks so that means I won't be txting anyone for 2 weeks.. Oh well. You'll get used to it
It's crazy how quickly my skin has changed for the worse. 
I enjoyed about a week - maybe a little over a week - of 'not-bad skin'. I still had acne, I wasn't clear, but what I had wasn't too noticeable and was just on my chin and right cheek. Majority of my forehead and left side of my face was relatively clear. I was feeling pretty good! But literally in the past 2 or 3 days I've ended up with breakouts everywhere, apart from my forehead. And a lot of them are hard cystic / under the skin pimples. I've changed a lot of things at once so they've probably all contributed to it. Stress, caffeine (it's a habit of mine that I drink a little coffee in exam period - even though I think nothing good comes from it - probably makes everything including my stress worse) different face wash, ran out of flaxseed oil (which I actually think was helping a lot and I haven't even had the time to just go get more of that). I also think I've been rougher with my skin than normal (washing more than twice a day to remove makeup) and have been touching my skin more too while studying without really noticing.
I'm hoping my skin settles down soon.
Pretty shitty day. I have a new big blemish on my temple, and another brand new big one right beside my nose. It seems like every time one of the pimples beside my nose heals, another big ass one has to grow. Also have that big one on my cheek that's healing, and I'm sure it'll love a big dark mark. Yay.
I'm not going to lie, this past week hasn't been the best of weeks, nor has the past month been the best of months. In all honesty, I've been feeling pretty bad for quite some time now and the worst part is that my mood has been like a roller coaster, it keeps going up and down, and I'm afraid that it'll derail. Acne wise, parts of my face have cleared up, yet other parts have been breaking out, so I guess you could say it's been slightly improving in that department. Other than that, I'm not even going to sugar coat it, suicidal thoughts have been pondering my mind every now and then. Just rarely though, yet it scares me, because I don't want to get lured into that trap where I think ending it all is the easy way out. Even if it happens, which I doubt will at times, I won't get a Facebook page dedicated to me like that Amanda Todd girl, not that it even matters, but it indicates that I'd just be another random guy who was too selfish to think otherwise. I might have a lot going for me, but for example, it's like some days, I feel alive, motivated, and happy, and other days, I just want to curl up into a ball, think about life, and cry my eyes out. It sucks a lot. Acne has made me feel like crap for quite some time now, so I guess you could say that's part of the reason why I feel depressed, but there's a lot of other things as well, so it's not just that. Overall, that's how I've been feeling recently, which without a doubt stinks. A lot of the other reasons why I feel like this contain unanswered questions, life, family, girls, and quite a bit of other stuff too. I'd explain it all, but not everyone would want to know I'm guessing, plus I'm a bit tired, so I might hit the hay whenever I actually get to sleep, which is pretty annoying. I've only been getting a couple of hours sleep every night due to how I'm feeling, so it's pretty tough to just doze off. I just lay down and wonder quite a bit. Wonder what the future lies ahead, since the path is quite foggy from my point of view. Catch you guys whenever. Peace.
