Guest Realist Share Posted May 11, 2006 I didn't get results until the last month... the 6th. Are you sure you weren't getting depressed just because you have acne. I think a lot of people falsely accuse Accutane as being the culprit, when it's just the state of your skin causing the depression. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SlimKim 0 Share Posted May 25, 2006 You seem pretty stressed out there! Im sure thats not helping your acne either. You just have to be somewhat patient. Youmay have to try a few different treatments until you find one that works for you. Don't give up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JimJoonya - really sorry to hear that you are going through this. I think many people on this board know the feeling of going day after day for months with acne. What does your derm say? I hate to say it but you may be one of the 5% of people for whom Accutane doesn't work at all. But it will be difficult to say definitively unless you finish the course. Has your derm been able to suggest any alternative treatments? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
