Ive been on accutane for just over two months . I can feel my mood worsening every day,I wake up feeling like I dont want to go anywhere or do anything. I know this is bad but I dont want to be taken off accutane as I know nothing else will help my skin! I dont think Im depressed its just mood swings , especially being a woman who is also on birth control I am bound to be extra hormonal. Has anyone else experienced this?
@clo223 Yes, it is very common to have low mood.
I dont recommend Accutane, because if your purpose is to shrink your sebaceous glands permanently, you will also change other precious things in your body, and this is going to bring you a lot of trouble, even long after you take it.
