It all started when i was 13, i had sever acne all over my face. It didn't bother me that much during my teenage years, alot of my classmates/friends had some acne too it seemed normal.
Just with me it didn't get much better. When I was 17 I went on Accutane(Isotretinoin) and during this time my face was at an all-time worst. My WHOLE face was constantly red and covered in acne, it was the worst time of my life. After that my skin gradually got better, the redness went away and my acne wasn't too bad.
A few years later it started coming back but not as severe as it had been in my teens.
I'm now 22 and still have moderate to light acne. It could definietly be alot worse but it still bother me alot.
I'm now working fulltime and since I already look younger than I am the acne is really not helping. I really only get acne in the areas I've drawn out here (Not my face). The rest of my face is completely clean of acne and redness, it's just those areas that are constantly red and covered in acne..
My acne has affected my confidence alot throughout the years, sometimes to the extend where I wouldn't go outside at all. Now that im working fulltime, nothing is worse than going to work with a face full of acne. Sometimes I just want to call in sick and stay home and hope it gets better the next day..
It's affecting my confidence at my workplace alot, being a 22 year old guy you'd think my acne phase should be over, but it isn't..
I'm currently on ~the same as the acne org regimen just with similar products, almost 2 months in. It has improved it somewhat but far from removed it. If I'm not working and I have acne on my face I will stay indoors. When I talk to people and I know i have alot of pimples i find it really hard to be confident and look therm in the eyes, I also think of lighting alot when i enter a room and try to not get lighting straight onto my face so they can see all the acne.
It does get better and worse but never completely disappears. It just feels like people are staring at my acne all the time, but no one ever mentions it.

I just want the rest of you to know that you are not alone, it didn't bother me that much in my teens but now I'm supposed to be an "adult" and I don't feel like one with my acne..
