Twosteps

Three months ago my forehead was a gross wreck. I had job interviews lined up and I really relied on this forum to help support me. I'm grateful for the help they gave me and the support but I think...

Jan 27 2015- Just read my full log and wow I've come a long way. The last time I washed my face with a cleanser was April 20th 2014. Nine months since I've used cleanser and I gotta say my face loo...

I went to a doctor for a problem with my heart. The combo of irregular heart beat and acne has them thinking my thyroid may be failing. They are doing some blood work to see if it is my thyroid. I'...

New pic just a couple mins old. I think my redness is increases. Not a good sign. Also, the other side of my forehead is starting to join in on the fun. I got a decent sized guy coming in on the o...

Scab came off yesterday in the shower. It had a good run of 5-6 days of scab would have liked longer obviously. Doesn't appear to be re-scabbing but looks like it might scar. Interview is in 7 days...

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I'm really not much of a popper anymore to be honest. Here is an update on my situation. I just took this pic about 15 mins ago. The big left zit has started deflating...

Chin up. Being brave is about being afraid and going anyway. You did a good thing and the right thing going to the meeting today. Try to stay positive!

What brand of whey are you planning on buying?

@DeLovely Haha thanks for the encouragement! I had extremely bad anxiety about my acne about 2 years ago to the point where I opted to go to grad school instead of joining the work force. I think I'm...

Aight guys. Interview is in 10 days (20th). Aloe vera seems to really be helping with my hyper pigmentation. Honestly though I have no problem making a joke about being "stressed" as long as I don'...

Eat mushrooms they have lots of vitamin D. Keep exercising even though it sucks in the cold. Drink more water dry air makes us dehydrate much faster. Keep you hair short like in the summer

Thanks for replying. How long does a pound of the whey last you?

@Mandy Thanks for replying. Yeah I'm not a big fan of popping either *gross* when the head starts coming through the skin I think it's best to dispose of it. I like using ACV dipped Q-tips for that...

Just a quick photo update. You can see the "left" zit is coming in strong but this one has started developing a whitehead earlier than the scab guy on the right so I'm hoping it won't be as bad. I'm...

I post a pic tomorrow morning so we can see how it looks after giving the inflammation a chance to calm down. But Hopefully it can heal from here! @MN Deciding to stop washing my face was a huge dec...

Just a quick update. Here's a picture showing the zit about 30 mins after "draining it". The white head was starting to push through the skin so I took a Q-tip dipped it in apple cider vinegar then ...

Hey guys, The thing popped on its own about an hour ago. My plan is to keep covering the "wound" with aloe vera to try and get the redness down. Not going to go with the Duoderm thing either. Weeke...

Isn't whey a derivative of milk? Also, the whey you linked is like $50/pound seems pretty pricey.

Hey, Read another topic earlier today about a guy who would eat whey protein whenever he felt a craving for sugar/carbs. The whey protein he recommended was $50/lb though which seems pretty excessive...

I use neutrogena sensitive skin + SPF 15 (they also make an SPF 50)

Hmm. My experience with probiotics has always been really terrible breakouts. I took them for about 3-4 months last fall. Probably other factors involved.

Anyone have any advice on how long I should have the thing on there? Should I put anything on the pimple before applying the Duoderm?

Really? I actually have a couple sheets of Duoderm (brand) but have never used them before. Do I just cut them with scissors and stick em on there?

11/7 Forehead is bad and still has lots of hyper pigmentation. 6 days ago started developing huge white head on left temple. About half an inch towards center of my forehead I have another one comi...

Ugh. You can see to the left I have another one coming in. The right/white one looked exactly like the left/red one 6 days ago. Friggin petri dish lol
