Hi 

Im not really sure how to use this site as Ive only just made an account but Ive been looking around for a little while now. 

Anyway, I had severe acne for 10+ years on face, back, neck chest, thighs, went to doctors, dermatologist a few times. Nothing worked so finally decided to try to accutane last year which worked very good and cleared up a lot of it although I still do get some spots its nothing like before.  But the thing is, I have a lot of scarring and some very deep set blackheads. It makes me very self conscious - I dont care about the scarring on my face or neck but its the spots/blackheads on my chest, back and thighs that get me down a lot. A lot of mornings I wake up and dont want to deal with the day because I feel ugly. I feel like no one will ever accept me. Because my body isnt very pretty due to acne, nobody knows whats underneath the clothes and I feel that if anyone ever saw, theyd be disappointed.

Ive been using aloe Vera and coconut oil for a few years and wash using hibiscrub. Im very hygenic but I feel like my body makes me seem unhygienic. I know people who shower twice a week and their skin is normal /: 

I know people have a lot worse problems but Ive been dealing with this for so long and it gets me down a lot. I used to feel kinda jealous when I see other girls with nice skin, now I dont get those feelings as much but I still feel ugly in comparison. 

I guess I just wanted to know that Im not the only one with this problem ? And what can I do
