im 33 years old now and i often have times when my skin is good, clear with no redness.. then other times my skin reverts back to its red, acne mess.

ive noticed i get totally different reactions in shops / on the street etcfrom people, when i have good skin vs bad skin. it seems to mainly be from women. (bad days = smirks, half smiles, slight laughing... good skindays = blank expressions)

has anyone else experienced this?

 

people might say, im just being paranoid but i am almost certain its not in my head.

It's not in your head...I'm thinking about the same thing. When my face was clear, everybody treated me normal, and now....nobodys tell me anything but they stare at my face all time...when we are talking.

I think people judge us more often in our physical health. I had a friend being bullied because of her acne and acne scars for years but after overcoming this condition, when she had a smooth skin. People treated her differently. Even praised and took her journey as an inspiration too.
