I'm 16 and I haven't really suffered with acne that bad until a few months ago...now it's all I can think about, all day long, is my acne.
I know just how you feel, I'm afraid of it, because I basically have no control over it, even though I'm on minocycline and differin, I still feel like I have no control at all. I can't stand people that have perfect skin and they don't realize how lucky they are. If they only knew what it is like to have to live through acne
: Hi everyone!
: I was wondering how old you all are and how long you have been suffering from acne? I am afraid that I will be stuck with this forever. I am 19 going on 20 and feel like I should be done with this crap by now. Does this mean that I now have adult acne? When does acne generally go away on its own? This is killing me. I am so depressed I could kill myself. Not really, but I really feel bad. I am on accutane and is still hasn't kicked in yet. Plus I am so scared and I know those will take forever to go away. I feel like a monster. I am also afraid that even if the accutane works somewhat, my acne will just end up coming back. I don't know what I would do if that happened. I am too unstable to handle this anymore. I know I shouldn't be, but I am so jelous of people with clear skin who never have to worry about what they look like. I hate it so much. Why does this have to happen to us. Anyway, I hope someone can give me some encouragment cause I am really down right now.
: Thanks,
: Sam
