For years I thought that I would always have horrible acne-- it was something that I struggled with ever since hitting puberty, and it didn't show any sign of letting up. That is-- until I found the acne.org regimen. I wish that this was the end of the story; that ever since then I was able to feel comfortable going out without makeup on, and finally that I was able to feel comfortable in my own skin. Literally. Unfortunately, about a month ago, all of the success I've had with my acne regimen has backfired in a big way. I now have more acne than ever before, and it HURTS. I don't know what to do. Has anyone had any experience with the regimen suddenly not working at all? I haven't changed my diet. I haven't changed my routines. I need help.  Here is a photo of me before thanksgiving last year-- no makeup at all: 

Here is a series of photos I just took. Big difference.
