I've just been thinking about something and I guess it's slightly changed how I feel about my skin and myself at this moment in time, and it may well change my overall perspective for the better going...

I feel like such a fail because my skin already scars (or at least leaves really dark marks that never seem to go away) and I'm only 14. No offense to anyone, but I don't want to be like the many peop...

Hi Helen Your thread caught my eye as I've read a little about these lamps before. I don't know a great deal though, think I've only ever looked at them out of desperation when I was searching for...

sick and tired of having to love myself, or learning to love mself. why can't someone love me and help me through the pain; why do others get that priviledge. I often think that - 'All it would tak...

Wish me luck, because I reaaallly need to go shopping!!! Like your style! It's a good idea, the whole reward system thing. Hope that works for you. When I first tried to stop picking, I wanted th...

Good luck!

Quite down, not so much because of acne but because of a family event i was forced to go to social even where you are forced/expected to have fun and I realized how truly uncomfortable I am in social ...

Not so much acne, but a response to picking. Just been feeling down these last few days I guess, and bored. Spent over an hour in front of the mirror this morning, picking at the odd lump or bump. The...

When your Mum is looking for photographs to scan into a digital photo frame and starts complaining that there are no pictures of you between the ages of 13 and 26... I figured out pretty quickly that...

I think it's something we all relate to, in terms of feeling like acne could be a deal-breaker as far as relationships are concerned or whether people would find us attractive. And I don't know about ...

The biggest motivation for me has been the fact that things visibly improved when I reduced picking. I found that when I saw those improvements, I wanted to keep that up. After just a few weeks, I w...

My uncle used to make fun of me about it. He really used to target my insecurities when I was a teenager. He was my uncle by marriage though and he and my aunt got divorced so I haven't seen him for...

Take it easy, folks, no need to start arguing. Let's keep it civil please.

Perhaps more importantly however... is that OmegaisJaded bangs guys who look just like you! Ha. Indeed. Goes to show that you can look like me and still get some attention. There's hope for me yet!

I see what you mean. Some people put more importance on the physical side of things than they do the emotional connection and some people see it the other way around. Either way, or even if it was a...

I see where you're coming from, Ace. It probably sound more negative than you intended it to be when it written down, but I see your point. I often wonder about relationships and things like that, s...

I'd be lying if I said I was dropping by to check your progress. I just wanted a graph fix. That was great timing!

Sounds like things are kind of up in the air at the moment, but I guess you'll get to see what influence the Naturopath's recommendations have soon enough. You're quite right about the topicals by th...

I don't think putting others down is the answer. True, but we all say things we might not mean sometimes. Don't worry about it. Moving on... )

i don't even know how to feel happy for myself anymore. That's entirely up to you mate. I was once told that one of the key things it depended upon was whether or not we were living life in accor...

Good thing happened today. A doctor finally took me seriously about how my skin messes with my head, my life and the fact I'm scarring my face. They put me on Erythromycin 250mg once a day. Even if th...

I'll have to see if I can create a phone app or something, I assume that would be easier than working out how to shrink me. I can't currently fit in someone's pocket but I don't take up too much space...
