I just tell myself that I will survive. But yeah, I cry too if I know and feel that it's really terrible. I also, accepted the fact that I am not blessed of perfect skin and I actually learned to love...

some bad bad shit going on with my chest. the large scabs just fall off from random friction and I have no idea how to treat it. Should i wash it? The skin seems too sensitive to face a washing, but I...

I'm so unbelievably health conscious now that my self one year ago probably thinks I'm one of those batshit crazy pilates-obsessed health nuts. i.e. I read nutrition facts for fun. Other than that, ...

I used to drink home made dairy kefir which cleared me instantly. Can you describe your story in more depth? I'm trying to find some commonalities... how bad was your acne? did you have any other ...

Doing pretty well today. I haven't had much active stuff at all...I have one small blemish on the side of my nose but I can tell already it won't amount to much. It's starting to get cold in WV now, a...

Did not wait out the initial breakout. Took probiotics for three days and contiuned breaking out extremely bad for the week following. The probiotics I took were coated to reach the small intestine, w...

doxy + topicals cleared me up two years ago. i then used retinoid/BP combo for maintenance and I was clear as long as i used them. but then this summer i broke out in severe, bleeding acne after tak...

Just to clarify guys, I take both VSL#3 supplements (currently ramping up) and water kefir. After experimenting with each one, I've found that I break out from the VSL 3 and not from water kefir, whic...

i think confidence is key. i have been getting a lot of stares at my forehead recently, but it doesn't faze me and when other people see that they move on and stop caring. if i met you and you were co...

just moved to uni. hot as hell and sweating buckets. also i can't monitor my diet because of dorm food so i'm breaking out right now. not happy. anyone else living in dorms dealing with limited ac...

I see. The reason I asked is that I suspect my digestion problems (mostly c) are both an underlying cause for my acne and also preventing me from getting the full benefits of juicing... hmm, well than...

Supplements or yoghurt etc? either or. as long as you had an initial breakout when taking it

have any of you guys waited out the breakouts and it eventually cleared you up? I'm currently breaking out from probiotics and I was wondering if this "initial breakout" thing really is just tempora...

i think of myself as a statistic. life isn't unfair. it's just life. some percentage of people in a given place will have acne. a smaller percentage will have severe acne. these things are out of our ...

just realized that there are people out there (on this board) who are dealing with the same problems as me. and it makes me feel a lot better. its us against the world guys

have you considered getting a tattoo to cover up your scars? i hear its a hard procedure to do but can definitely give you satisfying results.

This puts into perspective how bad trivial, cureable problems like acne really are.   you compare yourself to the majority, not the outliers. as long as the majority of people have clear skin, ...

hell yeah. my sister who has perfect skin. she sings at the top of her lungs every day for hours as if she didn't have a care in the world. i hear her from across the hall and sometimes i can even fee...

hey winged serpent, truly a great thread you have here. i appreciate your genuine sincerity in helping all of us afflicted individuals. i bought a juicer a few weeks ago and started using it up unti...

hey white fox, i have a question for you. can you describe in depth what your initial worsening stage on probiotics was like? What were your exact symptoms, how severe were they, and how did they pr...

from my experience doctors are either apathetic or they're just clueless when it comes to your unique set of symptoms. In the end, doctors are just a set of possible treatment options, and if those op...

hi i have this problem too, where i scab over but then when i go to sleep at night i touch my face and the next morning the scabs are all broken i think the conventional wisdom is to put neosporin or...

feeling like shit today. breaking out a little worse right now, could be due to many things. my constipation is not getting any better despite taking probiotics. i just hung out with my friend and i j...

I take it with a full glass of water. Tastes horrible but it's worth it ^^ Or if you can fit it somewhere in your meals, that would probably be easier on the taste buds

^ lolol at above. i'm definitely a skin lurker too. eh i'm doing alright. trying out manuka honey and can't really tell if it's working. other than that though i think the worst of my breakouts are ...
