Hey All! So I'm finally starting an actual regime to target my acne. I was supposed to meet with my new dermatologist at the end of last month, but I unfortunately wasn't able to make that appointme...

I'm so sorry for your hurt!!! I'm afraid I will end up alone largely in part because my bad skin makes me feel so vulnerable and unloveable. Ugh... I'm so over it I know it's easy to feel that way b...

Yeah, I know you guys are all right. Thanks everyone for the kind words! He actually ended up making ANOTHER comment about my skin yesterday. I totally broke down again and told him everything I wa...

Girl, you are stunning! Seriously, STUNNING! Your skin looks so amazing post-accutane. I can't believe you ever had acne with that beautiful skin! I honestly think you're prettier than your sis. Maybe...

Been having a horribly rough time with my acne, scars, and redness lately. Yesterday was a rough day, and I cried a lot. I opened up to my boyfriend and told him how depressed I've been due to my sk...

Thanks everyone for the support and suggestions. This forum has been such a great outlet for me, as I really don't know anyone else who suffers from acne as bad as I do (especially at my age). I'm f...

Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm about to see my dermatologist and get put into the iPLEDGE program for accutane. Since I know it will be at least a month until I can actually start taking it...

I'm about to get back into the iPLEDGE program and go on my second round of accutane as well, and I CAN'T WAIT! It's the only thing I ever had long term results with. I honestly never thought I'd ge...

Hey hope, that's exactly how I was feeling about this situation. I've always been the one making negative comments about my skin, and he's always the one to tell me not to worry about it. He ended u...

Thanks guys, that actually does make me feel better. I mean, I do feel bad cause I know I didn't always look like this. I think he just doesn't realize how bad my skin is bothering me lately so him sa...

Man, I can't even describe how I'm feeling right now. For the past month or so my acne has gotten to a point which I never thought it would. It's always been bad, but right now it's nearly unbearabl...

Look into liver detox and blood detox, acne is internal for the most part, and antibiotics are not a long term solution. They also bring many ill benefits to health by disrupting your microbiotia. Try...

I can't believe how much I can relate to you ladies. I have probably spent countless amounts of money on make-up that I honestly think makes my skin look like shit, but I just won't be seen without i...

Spiro is an oral medication that deals with hormones - i don't know much about it but if you go into the hormonal logs, you can probably get more info. Some members have had great success with it! Go...

Hi Meg and welcome! I wish i could tell you that acne will end at such and such an age but the fact of the matter is that many of us will live with this for a long long time. The best we can hope fo...

Hey mel, thanks for your response. Yeah, I know there is a genetic factor for me as well as my dad tells me he had acne until he was 23, but I have never seen him with a blemish of any sort. Also my...

Hi All, I've stumbled upon this forum a few times but this is my first post here. I've had acne for TEN YEARS and am completely losing my mind over it! That's 10 years of regimens, 10 years of doct...
