Mac 1 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 I'm going through the same thing...doctor suggested accutane, but I've heard so many negative things that I'm scared to take it...I wish I knew what to do! well think of the pros and cons...what kind of acen do u have(mild, mod, sev,) My derm told me this cause I told me I was sacred he said///" I know your an adult now, and I know u dont want to go throgh this anymore" that made me feel a bit betetr every tiem I hear it in my head...hes right I only acne for 3 years now but still it was the worst 3 years of my life...so try it out....the only thing I'ms acred of is geteting liek cysts while on accutane..not the other side effect, in a way I dont care about the other side effect...like ur already depressed with acne....you may want to just hide or die becasue of it...so to me it doesnt matter I just dont want big cysts to come up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
