awesome, i guess i'll go ahead and give it a shot. and this is totally off topic but i looked at your gallery pictures and you are so pretty! just thought id let you know haha Sounds good, keep us u...

I should note that I am clinically depressed, which I'm being treated for and have tried 3 different anti-depressants within the past 3 months. I feel so moody now with the Spiro though; I'm an emotio...

Uh, I picked a spot too. Now I have a red mark. Each time I pick now though, it makes me more determined not to do it again because I get disappointed with myself. I'll join you in not picking for a ...

Day #42 Had a breakout at the start of the week (probably about five whiteheads) after staying at my boyfriend's - curse his stubble (LOL)! A couple are still healing. I've noticed my skin is heal...

I went to a naturopath recently for my skin, and she prescribed me a drink with skullcaps in, and an acne cream with chamomile and calendula in. Chamomile is also really good for inflammation. So yep,...

Mine is usually normal flow for a day, heavy for a day, then normal for one to two days, then very light/spotting for maybe two days. I did find I got spotting while my body was adjusting to the pill,...

I recently decided to stop taking the pill after a nasty health scare (not related to the pill, although taking it didn't help things) because I decided my health was more important than my acne. I ha...

Ahh, that's so exciting! Congratulations!

Sounds like we all gave in to temptation haha! Me too I had a tiny one right next to my lip that couldn't be left, so I popped it and it healed really well, and no breakouts because of it!

I had to gradually decrease the amount I was having too, I found it really difficult to go completely cold turkey on everything at once. I used to eat a small amount of chocolate/something sweet every...

Good luck with doing the no sugar, dairy, caffeine, etc.! I started doing the same thing about two months ago and found giving sugar and caffeine up really difficult for about two weeks, I was really ...

Day #35 My skin has been pretty good again this week. I've only had a couple of spots on my chin, and a couple of small ones of my forehead. Oh, and I've been getting some very small whiteheads arou...

Yeah, I wouldn't particularly recommend sleeping tablets for that reason. I only got them because one time I had about an hours sleep over three nights and I was pretty pissed off about it haha. I th...

I have the exact same problem. It takes me at least an hour to fall asleep and then I wake up a lot during the night too (20+ times a night when it's bad), and sometimes I just don't sleep. I've actua...

Hey heitea! Just coming from the perspective of someone who has assisted a wedding photographer for a couple of years... They can airbrush your acne out (I know that sounds a little shallow, but if it...

  The copper IUD releases less copper than a normal diet. So, unless you already have a pretty bad zinc problem, a thyroid issue or progesterone deficiency (both of which will mess up your copper...

This topic is so interesting... good luck everyone, keep us updated!

I also had to stop using BP because my skin is too sensitive and I think it burnt me. I also had lots of dryness and flakes I couldn't get rid of. I use a tea tree oil gel now and get no flakes or dry...

You can do it heitea! Think how good you'll feel when you just leave it alone and it goes away by itself! Jack, I love snap chat! Little bit addicted hahaha.

hey everyone! i've recently stopped the BCP because it really wasn't for me. i'm now considering a copper iud because it contains no hormones. i've read lots of stories from women on the internet wh...

If you took a break from taking the pill you could be experiencing the initial breakout again (depending on how long you stopped taking it for). When you go off the pill your body can go out of whack ...

Well done Jack! It just shows your determination not to pick is paying off! That must feel good. I still haven't picked... it must be nearly two weeks now! I think I should reward myself with a new d...

I recently stopped using chemicals and have cleaned up my diet a lot I've probably seen a 80% positive change in my skin. My skin never reacted well to BP or other chemicals in the first place though....

If you've just started taking birth control, you could still be in the 'initial breakout' stage where you acne will get worse. It supposedly takes up to 3 months for the pill to start having an effect...

Oh, I used to get those now and again too! I haven't had any for a few years now, but it's such a weird place to get them. I agree with the above though, I probably wouldn't stick BP or anything up t...
