Well after my treatment my acne got sooooo much better and for a while my face was smooth and vitrually acne free. All i had was red scars from the terrible acne i had. Now after about 6-8 months later after my treatment i'm starting to get bad acne all over again :( It's not even 1/4 as bad as it used to be but the pimples are starting to grow in both size and quantity. This sucks so fucking bad for me because i wnet through so much hell with that before to the point where i became suicidal and wanted to kill myself. And now i'm startin to break out bad all over again. I keep on telling my parents I need to go on accutane again but my bitch mom keeps on saying "oh it will get better during the summer" or "it's not as bad as before". I'm pissed because this is how it started out before. I try everything. I wash my god damn face with oxy I take Bactrum and i use some acne cream on my face that's supposed to be the strongest acne toppical cream.
I don't know what the fuck i will do this makes me uglier than i already am and i can't afford that believe me. I"m jealous as fuck at all you people who never had a god damn pimple in your fucking life like you some of you perfect fucks. YOU DON"T KNOW SHIT WHAT ITS LIKE. AND IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT ME THEN SAY IT I'D BUST YOU WIDE OPEN IN REAL LIFE I'M SO FUCKING PISSED. I'D BE IN JAIL CUSS YOU'D BE A DEAD GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKER.
I promise you that.

i understand you completely, its so fuking bad, i was on roaccutane for 6 months (the average is 4 months i think and i had 2 extra months, and man those pills are expensive!!) my pimples were becoming violet not red lol. during the course of the pills i washed my face 3 times daily with effaclar (by la roche posay) and had a cream which dried out the pimples called differine (by la roche posay too)
after i stopped pimples started to grow again but stopped after 3 weeks. this was 3 years ago. now i still have a pimple here and there and still use the face wash and the cream. but its not that bad. though i have scarring in my face from the acne which is bad.

my suggestions:
greasy food is not directly related with acne but it does not help.
drink lots and lots of water, it helps
i found the cream i use really great (differine)
the doctor told me laser treatment is to remove the scarring, and if you still have acne laser treatment can make it worse

if you want to ask me anything go ahead, i'll try to help since i've been through it

yeah dude...i would go with the water thing aswelll....isnt it like 2 liters a day your supposed to drink??

Try that....

Right, so when youre at a bar and a girl looks at you, she thinks to herself 'damn, hes fugly but looks like he has a nice personality'?

I get/got spots on my back every so often, but every single one of them turned into a scar, like a small/medium sized red scar.. Slowly but surely they're getting less noticable, but it just sucks to think "My whole life I'm going to be conscious of them everytime I take my shirt off" ... Now that's not nice to think about...

I feel for you man, hopefully something can be done to sort this out for you.. but I guess some people are just destined to have acne whatever they do to clear it up!

Also eddivanzant.. if I had any respect for you before this, I'd have just lost it all 'cause that was like one of the most hurtful things you could have said in his time of need.. I hope you lose an eye so people can call you a pussy just 'cause you only have one eye! :mad:

It may sound "cliche", but you MUST drink plenty of Water, and Eat a balanced Healthy diet!

Also try and keep your face free of grease at all times, like if you work in a hot environment or get a dirty face then all these bad gases or foreign bodies get into your pores and can be nasty for some people.

Thankfully, I have never suffered with Spots, guess in 26 now so wouldn't be likely to have Acne Face, but I eat well and keep grease away!

Eat Healthy, Don't lie in bed all day, get NATURAL light, occupy youre mind on somethin positive and most importantly REMEMBER MATE ITS ONLY DAMAGED PORES!

Take it Easy Bred!

Someone I've known forever, she went to the doctors about acne and they said one of the best treatments is natural light, 'cause it like.. I dunno dries out the skin and y'know does wonders for your skin... Maybe go to a tanning salon and see if that helps at all... Maybe your doctor/GP could prescribe a sunbed to you, or you could just go on holiday and lie out in the sun all day :).. Unless it's sunny where you live!

i started coming out with cistic acne, went to the doctor, he perscribed me some stuff, it was gone in 2 week, give it a go

Right, so you only quote half a post?

i never had a pimple in my life. But i understand where your coming from. Its not nice to get picked on and shit. Just remember when it comes down to it how important is the way you look? Everyone gets so preoccupied with appearance nowadays, who gives a shit. its all for show..
