Bad, Bad, Bad, very negative about it today...very red marks on right side of face and a lump/cyst type thing which wont go down? A spot on the other side with a few little ones near my chin...

this is 5 months into yasmin, going into my 6th month in March

Have heard it can take up to 9 months to work, may talk to my nurse about it next time I go...perhaps try changing to dianette (supposedly better for acne!)

At my wits end...want it to be over now

My face is itchy and hurty still, have about 3-4 cysts. Not fun but I'll live...

It's not getting to me that bad but they irritate my face like mad! It's like your face wants to remind you that the zits are on your face all day.

I had 4 cysts on my left cheek too and they hurt so bad. I was aggravated with them so I put almost everything that came to my eye: tea tree oil, apple cider and a ton of Benzaclin. Then it dried up my skin around the cysts, not the cysts and now my skin is blistered. So, I rubbed A&D ointment because I dont know what I'm doing, and it looks ugly. Im fed up.

ive been off the site for the last little while, lifes been way too hectic, really missed u guys its not JUST the acne, im becoming increasingly depressed, i rarely ever even leave my room anymore, even switched to distance education so i wouldnt have to go to school, my job is the only thing i usually leave for anymore. Im turning twenty-two this month, and this site is probably the only place left where ill even tell everyone how i feel. Dont judge me too harshly, to be honest i dont think the acne on my face is that bad anymore, but the marks and scras left over really make me hate myself, and the ones on my back make me wanna rip my own skin off. In case this sounds like im psycho, im not, just really really bummed out, too much going on in my life that i cant control, im kinda losing myself in it. sorry, and thanks

not too bad.. i have a new zit near my nose but it's barely noticeable. i just changed my skin care routine and i use the zapzyt stuff. i noticed my skin tone has been improving

Sorry you're feeling down and believe me I know exactly how you feel!

Hope things get better for you, you should do one fun thing this weekend, out of the house

probably not, just broke up with my gf, so even more bummed out if possible, but thx

A little dissapointed.

My method of not using topicals has really worked well, but i think my diet lately has been terrible and even though i don't diet plays that big a part in my acne, i haven't been eating healthy or enough. I am like having one oven pizza for a days food. I need to sort it out, cos its not just my face which is getting unhealthy because of it.

Still hate it. Will always hate it. Whether it's going away or not. I will hate it on myself and I will hate it on others.

i'm pretty happy with mine today. back and chest are alright, no cyst for the first time in like a month =) face is alright, crazy red though.

And I am a happy person overall.....LOL.....that post mad me look like a very angry and negative person. That was the acne talking I guess.

Acne can make us say and do crazy things! lol

...I'm feelin alright, some spots are healing up well, getting some new ones but I'm pretty ok.

Tired, tired, tired. Shit, it never ends.

Optimistic. I recently started an "acne diet" that seems to be helping my skin. I've only had one huge breakout since starting the diet and it's because I cheated and ate some chips and chocolate cake.

Tired, tired, tired. Shit, it never ends.

Ditto!

You know what it's like to have a dirty room, and your parents ask you to clean it and you get ungrounded? I mean a really messy room; the floor is not visible. And you clean it, and you think that you're ungrounded, and then some faggot goes and messes the room up with some "spots."

Yup. That's my skin today.

Hahahahahaha i know right? If we could only get our hands on that fn "faggot" and put him out of his misery and then always have a clean room!

I feel horrible. I thought when i got 2 months free after school i can finally work on my face but it's worsen even after i started the regime from last year

^ Good song

Fucking terrible, I had a big ol cyst on my forehead that literally just went away 2 days ago, but unbelievably a new cyst popped up literally right above the old one just as the old on died, and today its big and swollen, bigger then the old one. What a sick joke....

Hate IT

have quite a few lil whiteheads, it's weird since I'm used to gettin big ones...I dunno if this is good or bad? haha at least I don't/can't pop them.

I'm actually feeling really good today, feel like I can accomplish anything I set myself out for

better than yesterday, i didnt feel so sorry for myself, recently got dumped for being too ugly, and you know what, fine. im ugly! but ive got a good personality and i deserve better! ive got good friends in my life, and I feel connected to everyone here too, so im gonna try and stay positive:)
