Sometimes, I get so Sad
So sad that i completely shut down
I stare blankly at the wall and it doesn't matter what you say to me
Because in that moment...i don't exist.....
I have seen your gallery and let me tell you if i had your skin i would be so content with it. I would embrace it and i wouldn't be depressed. We are our worst critics and we think that are our acne is so terrible but when others view its completely opposite of what we think. Often we scrutinize our skin until it starts taking a psychological toll on us that we become obsessed with the idea that our skin isn't good enough. My skin is 10x worse than yours so having your skin would me 100x more content. Try not to spend so much time in the dark-side and be happy that you dont have it worse. One day we will look back at time and realize that we were going all wrong about it. (our issue)
Be blessed !
thanks.......... i don't like the downs of Bipolar myself........ it sucks big time........ been keeping busy now..... and i don't look at myself in the mirror so that ought to take my mind off of it.....
Hope you feel better soon Margox and AbyBar.

What kind of soap?
Peppermint oil soap. I use it every morning and every night, sometimes in the afternoon if I've been wearing makeup - but I've gone a few days without wearing foundation recently. I'm also doing a honey and cinnamon mask every day as a kind of natural alternative to BP (or at least, for some kind of anti bacterial effect).
My skin looks great this morning. I have a few hyper pigmentation spots (not great, but they always start showing up as I get clearer, so I like them heh heh) and a random cut on my eyelid (that appeared over night) but I can see an active shrinking. I've never been able to see that before, usually they *have to be* popped or flake off on their own. They don't typically just go down on their own.
In other news, I've done most of my Christmas shopping already. My two best friends wanted rubber ducks and books. This is why I love them.
DYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously... this new acne treatment is awesome except for the fact the morning cream BURNS like FIRE! I wanna claw my face off but I know it is working because I have already seen huge improvement.......
Anyone else being driven crazy by Finacea ???
I feel super great ..I have light to mild acne usually get 1 pimple daily (small) but this week I haven't gotten any!!!... I been doing this new regimen where I wash my face with a gel cleanser once every other day my skin is super oily but that's because I was drying it with products, the days I don't wash with cleanser I just splash water on my face I find this way my skin doesnt produce much oil ....oh I also been taking vitamin A just 8k a day
Well I'm feeling bad again. I have like 15 dots under my jaw on the left side...I was seriously shocked when I noticed it looks like that again (I had this problem a few weeks ago). Probably because I got very anxious 2 days ago and scratched that area a bit and the 2 pimples I had there. T___T whyyyyy did I do that!?
Good thing I have long hair and can pretty much cover it.
Had my last anatomy exam today! Praying I've done well enough to pass the course!
Now to get through the next two uni exams and then I'll be on break - finally Hopefully then my skin will start to improve again - it's still a complete mess at the moment and I'm sure it's due to the massive stress I've been under lately.
I got an electric shock yesterday when my phone charge exploded in my hand. As I was sat in the hospital waiting for my test results to see if I was going to be alright I caught sight of myself in a mirror. Florescent lighting was invented by an evil genius, I'm sure of it.
Skin not perfect but at least the mini breakout that I had a couple of days ago seems to be clearing up.. However feeling quite good about myself as I was told by somebody today that I have nice eyes. Just goes to prove that despite what we may think, acne or the condition of our skin is not necessarily what other people see when they look at us.
i really don't have any active breakouts at the moment, but i'm still feeling depressed. i feel like because of the scarring i can never attract a guy.
Adhpn7, I hope you don`t mind me saying this but judging by your profile picture you appear to be an attractive girl and I`m sure that despite what you may think, plenty of guys would be very happy to date you.
adhpn7 - Your profile picture is at risk of confusing my sexuality. You really have nothing to worry about. You're gorgeous and nice - they'll be falling at your feet if you have a bit of faith in yourself.
I had a bit of a breakout today. Not surprising considering yesterday was pretty stressful and today has been a mad dash doing coursework I wasn't aware was due in on Monday.
I really want to see the guy I'm dating, but it's not possible because he's having some problems and so am I. I actually kind of miss him though. I think I'll be wearing makeup next time I see him - it was nice to realize he was still nice to me without it on, but a part of me is still worried he'll go off me.

I'm going to have to disagree too...you are incredibly beautiful based on your profile picture. That type of rare, classical beauty that you almost never see in girls these days. I'd date you in a heartbeat, and any guy who would pass up on the chance to date you must be lacking a few brain cells!
update on me: skin is doing a little better. I ordered the indian healing clay mask, and when it arrives later this week I'm gonna try it out. I only have one or two actives on either side of my nose, but they're healing.
Skin is finally starting to get used to all the BP.. and acne is clearing- if not completely. But I can't help but wonder if all this BP is good for the skin long term :/
That's cool that your seein improvement with the Bp I used it for 2 years and my face reacted badly to it, anyway everybody is different man so keep ur head up and stay positive.
Skin is pretty clear have a couple of little bumps nothing big. picked at a little bump hoping it doesn't get too big. I'm just happy that my skin is clear overall, I remember the times I didn't/couldn't even look in the mirror. I would want to cry. feels nice to look in the mirror now and see how beautiful I actually am. regardless of a little scar or two. I'm kind of hating myself for picking at that little bump, don't want to get in the habit of picking my face again. that's no good.
