Day 25 yay! I think..
The days are going faster¦the pimples are setting smaller in size¦.and my face hurts less¦.all are positive things happening! The pimples that I have been getting are so much less painful then the ones I was getting before the regimen up to week 2. This is so huge for me. I know I could get a sudden breakout to ruin all my good progress, but for now I am happy!!! The amount of cysts has also come down these past few days. Now washing my face and doing the regimen does not hurt as bad because my face is showing some promising results that I hope will continue. I can sleep better too because my face is not that painful anymore even though I breakout daily! That is the only crappy news today folks! I am still breaking out! But that is going not going away anytime soon!
I am filled however with BIG red spots from previous acne but time will heal those eventually!
I hope every one is doing well on their acne regimen 
This journey still going to be long and difficult but we can all do it together!
More positive updates hopefully through this week BYE!
Also by the end of the regimen I want to ask myself question that people out there starting the regimen would like to know. I have one. By the end I will post all my questions and answers along with my thoughts. I hope you enjoy reading it when it is done. And I would look forward to helping those is need
For me, What is the most difficult part of being on Dan's Regimen?
-The weeks until you are building up to the full amount of BP would definitely be the hardest because during this period you are experiencing the worst symptoms. The dryness, flakiness, and redness, and seriously so intense an almost made myself want to quit so many time! Also I could add that The Regimen is not a quick fix and if you do not have patients then it would make this journey even harder on yourself.

You are so my hero....lol. Your attitude and perserverance is something that we all can learn from. And the fact that you are already making plans to help others once you clear up is very commendable. Do you by any chance work in a job that has you interacting with people as a leader/motivator (teacher, camp counselor, project manager, etc). I can see you doing so well with that.
Sending a BIG hug your way
Glad to hear that you're making progress!

Definitely keep posting....you have a lot of fans on here. I have since broken out much worse since those pictures. I ditched all my retinoids and it seems that my face hates me for it - hence the reason i haven't posted pictures in a while. I tried many topicals and accutane and nothing worked for me so i am giving natural and holistic a try.....and let me tell you....its a long process of trial and error. Good Luck with school and your treatment.
Day 24 Update:
Hi everyone!
I do not have nothing new to report! I am waiting for the day that I can come to this site and report on some progress haha and not on all the bad happening with my skin. It is not going to be anytime soon, but lets just hope so
So still breaking out. Same amount. But smaller pimples.
And actually I have been getting a little flaky the past two day which was a little weird so hopefully that clear very soon:/
Yup me too. I feel like not updating my log anymore, it's becoming redundant but I will do it anyway.
Who knows maybe my makeup switch is the answer!!!!!!!!!
Yes hopefully! I have noticed my face is way more flatter. This is really huge for me, since my face has been really bumpy with my pimples. I am still getting alot of pimples, but 80% of them are small pimples. But the cysts are still big.This has been happening for about 5 days now. Is there anything that you are noticing your face doing now that is an improvement?
well... the bumps were almost gone, and then I messed everything up with the bad makeup/heat the other day. Feels like i'm starting from scratch again! meh.
But on a positive note, at least I've been able to narrow down what might be making it worse.
No don't feel like that! Let us just hope that now you are going to get results faster than you have been getting
OK 🙂 I will take the treatment with me.
Also, I really second what everyone is saying about you. You're awesome and have been a great help for me through this process. I felt like I wasn't alone.
Hugs

You are welcome. I am sorry to tell you that I am not going anywhere either 🙂
And you have helped me very much too, you are a great person 🙂
Day 26 Update:
How is everyone doing today? I am trying to fix my picture so that I am upright instead of sideways haha I don't know how that happened!
Anywayssss¦.my skin. My skin is just blah blah blah. Nothing positive to report, except my attitude haha. I am thinking of posting every few days so that I don't bore you guys to death with my similar posts¦Not sure yet though?
More breakouts, a lot of red everywhere. My forehead is still looking pretty awesome, and my chin is getting a few small pimples though. Have not seen any cysts on them so far so that is great!!!
The reason I hate cysts the MOST is because when I get them I will get like 1-3 DEEP under the skin cysts that connect with the other cysts. This sucks so bad. I have a connecting underground railroad of cysts under my skin haha! What the heck right?
Thanks Everyone
TTYL.
Thereisalwayshope I admire your determination. All your posts help me get through the days knowing that I am not the only severe acne sufferer on this planet . I can tell by your posts that your a very sweet, optimistic girl
Very admirable . I wish I could be as brave as you to post pictures of my acne but I can't stand the sight of me :/
I'm not doing Dan's regimen, in fact I just started a retinol ointment my Derm prescribed me. I'm into week 2 and I'm breaking out nasty on the side of my face, idk why but it sucks. For some reason my right side has always been worse . However, keep the posts coming, I love reading your skin care regimen update .

It means so much to me for you to say that! The reason I do it is because I have always wished that there was someone out there for me to relate to having severe acne. I know it is just a constant struggle to get through certain days, and maybe you have the urge to cry in the morning looking at your face, but there is no reason to give up.
I get my inspiration from my boyfriend. (Well now he is my ex because he had to move far away for his career, and this was less than a week ago so I have been really down, but he still is my life). He has so much determination. He went through accutane and now he has a baby face.
I am just happy that my journey could actually help at least one person. And as for the pictures...it is very hard. But I knew that I would post them no matter what. No matter how severe or how difficult it was so see. Acne makes you feel ugly sometimes, but I know it is helpful for people to go through this with me and if you are going to following my posts and you might as well be in my life, and should be able to see my progress in pictures too 🙂
Thanks again for your positivity! It keeps me going honestly. I hope that you find some freedom from acne on your current regimen 🙂
*****And I will keep them coming! If just one person asks, then I will listen 
It must be great to have the support of someone you love
Someone cheering you on to finish the race . In this case your regimen to clear skin
And your absolutely right everyday I wake up to wash my face and I feel the need or the urge to cry but I don't . I mean there are days were acne secludes me from the world and I become reclusive but then there are other days like today when I read such beautiful, inspirational posts like yours for example, that motivate me not to give up. And that this is just an obstacle I have to overcome and a battle I will win
How do you go about your day??? As in do you conceal your acne to go out ??? Do you cancel Events because you don't feel like facing the world??
My mind constantly thinks about ACNE !! Haha an I think maybe that's why I haven't reach the clear line yet lol. Too much acne stress .
I'm wishing you the best luck and sooner or later I know you'll have that beautiful clear skin that your hoping for patience is virtue !!
Yes my acne did and still does control my life. Not as much as before but it still does. I do not wear makeup at home, but when I go out or go to see my boyfriend I do use makeup. I feel like I have to right now because my whole face looks like it has been burned, and it would hurt people looking at it haha. Or that is how I feel sometimes. My acne controlled my life. Still does when I am not careful. Even though I wanted to see my friends, boyfriend, and family my acne made it so hard. I just wanted to stay indoor and hide my face form the world. I am waiting for the day when I can go somewhere without any makeup.
I cried a lot the past year, and then more starting the regimen, but now I am feeling much stronger. My mind is thinking about acne like 90 percent of the time! The other 10 I try to think of my boyfriend and how wonderful he is to me. It is not like I want to think about it! Trust me! But since the acne is somewhere so vulnerable it just affects every part of you. And consumes you. Even the toughest person falls, but the most important thing you have to remember is that you can get up. You have people here for you. I am here for you as well.
****And I just came from looking at my face, and I did breakout again since waking up this morning! But am I going to freak out? No. Just expect breakouts and stay focused on the goal and you will always succeed.

That's just how I think 90% of the time I'm thinking of acne and the other 10% I'm thinking about my family, friends and Boyfriend ^.^
I don't know why but ever since my acne blew up from mild to severe I became paranoid . I don't like to eat anything that isn't fruits, vegetables, fish or chicken. I only drink water. No dairy, sugars, processed food . Nada ! I'm afraid that I'll break out worse . And make up, Jeesh ! I'm afraid to break out even more if I wear make up. So I haven't worn make up for a year now . It's been hard getting use too :/
I'm constantly picking at my face which I think contributes to my breakouts .
Same here, I wake up everyday to new break outs. But I'm having trouble identifying cysts from pimples . Funny as it sounds idk what form of Acne I have . I'm confused whether I have cysts or not . I began to scar :/ nooooooo on my temples . And my cheeks may be next ..... Not even make can hide those ugly atrophic scars. It's such a relief to be able to vent to someone who can relate to the issue here . ACNE ! I dislike it. Like you said it makes us more vulnerable and it does make me feel ugly . But we're not . We have awesome personalities 🙂
I think acne made more conscious about the stuff I eat . Ive been eating healthy for a year now. I see a very beneficial future I hope 🙂
The makeup deal is hard. I don to want to wear it, but I am a full time student at a university, and I am in a classroom where 95% of the students in my class have beautiful skin! But when I do not have to, I do not. Also I wear non comodegenic makeup so that it does not cause breakouts and clog my pores. And UGH! I was really bad about picking my face and popping my pimples every morning and every night before bed. But since noticing that I was starting to scar, I quickly stopped. Now i do what Dan recommends. He says to take a sterilized needled and just go through the white head. I barely use any pressure. And it something comes out great, and if not, DO NOT FORCE THINGS OUT! Because that is what causes those ugly scars that people are scrambling to get rid of once they clear their acne.
The pimples on my face are also not the same. I have different ones everywhere. Some deep under the skin that are very painful. Some pimples are raised above the skin but have no head, some with heads. So I am just all over the place with the kind of acne that I currently have. Maybe that is why I have severe acne? Because I have every kind of variation of pimple imaginable. Oh well I say. I am going to win in the end.
I hope that as time goes on, I can start learning to stop focusing on my skin. And start thinking of more important things in life, like family, friends, and my boyfriend. I know that we can do it! And my diet? It is fine. I try my best to keep things healthy, but sometimes it is really hard to narrow things down when it comes to your acne. Especially when you have cases that are similar to our you know? Hopefully after a month you will start seeing some good results, and if not give things more time It is hard giving treatments a chance to work when we all want an overnight miracle cure right? HAHA! I WISH!
all i have got to say is your attitude alone will clear your skin.
I don't comment much but you are truly motivating and i think A LOT of people would benefit from reading your posts.
Keep up the excellent work, i am going to try take a leaf out of your book and be positive which i find with having acne is hard to do
Wish you all the best

Day 27 Update: Hello acne.org!!! Good Morning!!!
So I have almost completed week 4 and my skin is taking a few BIG steps back. I can't say I did not see is it coming though haha. I broke out pretty heavily in the last 30 hours. (Maybe 10+ new actives! I know it is a lot but this was an everyday thing for me before the regimen!!!) Some all over my face and most came in clusters of actives on my cheeks. Unfortunately, these clusters are causing my face to swell. It does hurt, but I I don't expect this to be a huge problem in the next few days! My chin and forehead have also managed to get some new actives which isn't unusual, but my cheeks are still the main site for active pimples to set up shop and duplicate! I wish my pimples weren't so sociable haha they do not like being by themselves so they always invite more pimples to join them :/ Haha. Even so, it will no be for long!
Time is certainly flying these last weeks. Week 1-2 were the longest days so far begin on the Regimen. This was also the time when the symptoms of dryness were at their max for my skin, so everyone please do not give up because of the drying! No matter how uncomfortable. Also I would like to say like I have before that I have reached the full amount of BP in two weeks so that is why my symptoms have gotten so much better. So if you are still working yourself up to that full amount I can not stress how crucial it will be for you all to stay completely focused continue with the regimen strictly! I have not missed an application and I follow every detail to the T! There is only a few exceptions for those who have very sensitive skin, and therefore you have to make the changes that you need to accommodate your skin. I hope everyone is on their way to clear skin!
Thanks for the support everyone!!! Questions? Please ask I am here.
**I am not going to lie...my face does hurt!
Day 28 Update:
I am trying to overcome this big breakout and what a challenge! Especially since I am breaking out every single day so it makes it harder. I am just keeping myself as busy as possible and trying not to look at my face either. I keep catching myself touching my face darn it!!! Haha. Well I am going to keep looking forward. (Even though I would rather fast-forward )
Anyway it is a short one today, you're welcome!

Me too! I keep touching to make sure I didn't get new ones. LOL way to GET new ones! I just can't help myself. Especially when I'm at work in front on my computer focusing on something else, I start touching my face. OK we have to make an effort to stop that! Let's do it together 🙂
Day 29 Update:
Start of week 5. I am finishing off month one and being brutally honest, this regimen is tough tough tough! I, just like everyone would like to see more results faster, but this regimen just keeps you on your feet. Truly a roller coaster ride with this regimen, and most other regimens out there. Here is the continued week by week of my personal results. This is just so that you know I am not trying to sugarcoat anything, and I want to be honest! Today I broke out again with maybe 5 new actives and there is one cyst that is under my lip that is so painful I can not even open my mouth. Also my lower lip swelled during the night which makes the lower half of my face very painful. I am smiling a crooked smile writing this just so you all know there is no giving up allowed on my posts¦.
Week 1: Mild, noticeably improvement, but still breaking out. Dry, flaky, tight, red. (Half a finger of BP) (Scale of 1-10: 9!)
Week 2: No improvement, BIG BREAKOUT! My face became worse than week 1. All pimples were huge and raised high above the skin. BIG breakouts that brought deep and big pimples and numerous cysts. Dry, flaky, RED. (Full amount of BP) (Scale: 10!)
Week 3: Slight, slight improvement. Skin is flatter. Still breaking out a lot maybe 5-6 every morning. This week the pimples are smaller but I was still getting some cysts. No longer dry, flaky, or red. (Full amount form now on) (Scale 7.5-8!)
Week 4: BIG, BIG, BREAKOUT! Probably around 10-15 bloody actives came overnight. This breakout affected my whole face. Cysts, and all. Face began to swell and became painful to sleep. Breaking out continually every day with 1-5. Not a pretty week. (Scale 9-9.5)
This is not to discourage anyone, but is just a guide. hopefully you experience better more faster results. I am not giving up, even with a terrible week 4!
After one month things begin to happen to people I find. And this is when the positive people and the inpatient will be weeded out. Some will continue, the majority will look into another treatment. Please everyone, let us be more patient with ourselves. These people are important to maintain a regimen where you are more likey to succeed. Find a support buddy and set yourself up for success! You all are my support buddies, so I thank you all very very much!
My heart goes out to everyone with acne, and I pray we can all defeat this disease!

I totally agree, it is such a roller coster ride, and makes you question it almost every day. It's very time consuming and emotionally tolling. But if we were to stop what else would we do? The way I see it for you, the worst part is over and it can only look up from now! You have the best attitude and that will take you very far.

Yes mystory I completely agree. We have been through the worst of it and the next two months will treat us better Oh and I am in no way giving up, and ill be damned is I let you or anyone else going through this with me quit as well. And I'll pick you back up anyway! 
Day 30 Update:
Skin: Same 'ol Same ol' everyone. Still trying to recover from the massive breakout. Breaking out daily (since the breakout it has been like 1-5 actives every morning)! You guys didn't expect to come on to my post an read anything different did you? Haha, silly acne.org readers 
It is okay, I still love ya'all.
I am starting ASU next Saturday and I am excited because school keeps me busy! YAY! Do yourselves a favor and find something to do besides standing in front of the mirror criticizing yourself every chance you get. You do not want to be your own worst enemy do you??? Watch a movie, go out with friends, take a nap, keep busy. Love yourself!
Love you all -------- so much!
Day 31 Update:
Hi acne.org!
I put another thin layer of BP at night, and moisturizer, and I woke with no breakout! YAY! Also 5 active pimples were completely dried and are not flat!
So what me and a friend of mine have decided to do it count our actives every week. Some people would call me crazy for doing this. But I can do this. And it could be some hard, but I feel like it could help me know that I am making progress and therefore helping my confidence. Before starting the regimen I counted 50+ actives sore pimples on my face. The majority on my cheeks. Yesterday, after finishing my morning regimen I counted and I had roughly 35 active sore pimples. I know it is still a big number, but I hope that this number goes down as I finish my second month.
My right cheek is by far the worst with about 15 on that cheek alone. I am hoping for some relief!!!!!!
Anyway stay strong everyone!
