So for the past 2 years I went on birth control which really cleared up my mild acne. However within the last 3 months I started break through bleeding and all of my hormones have been completely out of wack. I just switched to a new birth control called Gianvi, I think also known as Yaz, and I am wondering if this pill has helped anyone? I have been so depressed lately, not wanting to leave the house, not wanting to do my makeup, because I just don™t feel confident with my skin. Does anyone have any advice on how to feel pretty again even with acne? I know my acne is no where near as bad as a lot of people but it™s been really hard on me. I™m getting under the skin blemishes on my chin and pimples along my lower cheeks and jawline.

You just have to get up and go. Acne is now your new normal so the more you do things and not allow your acne to stop you, the more confident youll get. Its tough but once you can deal with having acne , it makes everything that much easier

Same here,
I'm on the first week on birth control and right now it's getting worse. So sorry I can't offer any advice but I'm just hoping and waiting (also not going outside); so maybe it helps to know you're not alone

But looking from the pictures I think you'd be able to cover it up just try it
And once you regain confidence in going out maybe you will get distracted untill the birth control helps, since it normally takes a few months to work.

Stay strong xx
