Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Bad habits/rituals because of acne. Does anyone else do any of these?

-avoiding direct sunlight on your face when with other people
-avoiding mirrors in stores
-deciding places to go (like restaurants) based on their lighting
-covering face with hair
-bringing extra makeup everywhere
-having a "better" side of your face and hoping people sit on that side of you
-avoiding looking at yourself in he car window when going into your car
-sometimes looking in mirrors just to see how bad it really is (being brave to do this)
-when having a conversation with someone and thinking about if they're looking at your acne
-not telling someone about your acne issues (emotionally) and wondering if they think about if it bothers you or not
-being self conscious in public (even sweating) thinking about if people are looking at your acne

any others you experience?

I do all expect one
the only one I do NOT do is the hair covering
I use to do it too but I try not to as I fear it may irritate my acne

Yes. the constant preoccupation is why having acne makes me feel so trapped and controlled by it, it sucks.

Yep but I do avoid covering my face with hair only because I don't want the dirt and oil on my hair to make my skin even worse... plus NEVER go to the beach.
