wadsthepointofliving 0 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Its good in a way that he doesnt care, but u could try slowly persuading him to go on something,like accutane if his acne is that severe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Polka 5 Share Posted October 16, 2006 he needs your help, sounds like acne really caused him a lot of pain in the past... ur v nice only offer help if he wants it though, you don't want him to think you don't like him because of his acne.. believe me, he might think that.

baldmark 0 Share Posted October 21, 2006 the first step is to go to a dermatologist.the next tell him to come and visit us in the forum so he can read out stories, and tell him hes not alone, also he can look at my profile and gallery so he can see i also have acne on my back, and just whent to the dermatologist 1 1/2 weeks ago and she placed me on (minocycline) so tell your man to get his butt in here and make his profile and place his pics and go to the dermatologist so he can be placed on something and get better.

Stabby Rip Stab Stab 0 Share Posted October 21, 2006 ignore the ppl who just suggested antibiotics. if he has had sever acne for ten years and has scarring then you need to get him on the accutane ASAP!antibiotics will only help short term then come back worse.tell him its only six months and u'll be there for him the whole timei wish i had a GF to confide in while i'm going through my treatment....would make things sooooooo much easier.

He doesn't seem to be dealing with it and it would be really good for him to maybe see that there are soo many of us out there with cystic acne. I know I felt as if I was the only one... it may just get him ready to deal with the situation instead of hiding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
