It does some damage to the esteem. Online classes ftw, but that's just a crutch.
Stress is a pretty big factor as well, but in situations like mine, the stress can't be avoided.

Cleaning the inner headband of your hats more often (if you wear em)
Changing your washcloths more often
DON'T waste your money buying expensive products you find in CVS, go to the dermatologist and get a REAL prescription and if you can't, get some plain unscented bar soap and wash your face 2x a day
Food HAS everything to do with your acne. The garbage you put into your body like processed and fast food really shows up on your face. Eat more natural foods and lots vegetables and you'll see a big difference in how your face clears up. Best way to do this is just throw everything in a juicer and drink a glass a day. Cucumbers spinach carrots apples oranges berries and your set.Everything has been said in this thread already but I really recommend Vitamin b or pantothenic acid . I take 3 capsules a day along with a good diet and my acne went away FAST

"Milk consumption has been associated with an increased risk of acne. Other studies have shown that a low glycemic index diet that’s high in fiber and fruits and vegetables is beneficial for acne," notes Pipkin. "So, if someone is suffering from acne, avoiding milk or sticking to a low glycemic index diet may actually be helpful."

I'm telling them to look up the side effects. If you think it's worth it, be my guestOriginally Posted by dmbrhs
So don't listen to people who have had good experiences with a life-changing drug, but listen to someone who has no experience with the drug? Sounds like good advice.Originally Posted by Luong1209
Don't listen to either of these men.Originally Posted by ninjahood
listen to this man.
go see a dermotologist and get this asap.
Didn't accutane get sued for some side effects? It was pretty dangerous if I'm not mistaken.

And don't listen to the NT haters who have never taken it and will try and convince you that it's the worst thing known to mankind.
What about the article mentioning food with a lower glycemic index? I experienced this first hand just recently. In early January I was breaking out horribly due to my consumption of ramen (high glycemic load). I was eating at ramen shops 3-4x a week at least. I cut it out once I started to break out severely. Since then my acne has gradually subsided and I have not had any new breakouts. High Glycemic Foods = insulin (which is a hormone, which you believe to be the cause) = more sebum (oil) production. I agree with you that hormonal imbalance is the cause for acne, but I can not agree with your advice to neglect a change in diet.Originally Posted by girlslovewaffles

The only reason why milk affects acne is because of the hormonal content in non-organic milk. It all comes down to hormonal imbalance.
Forget adjusting your diet overnight and get acne supplements. PERIOD.

That is what really gets me, it affects me man, i used to to be out every weekend and doing what other teenagers do and this +#++ just makes me stay home and read,watch tv, despise those who have fun lol
I honestly didn't notice it because my acne wasn't particularly widespread, it was just concentrated. I did it to prevent scarring later on.Originally Posted by jeppprox
For those who've had success with accutane, was there a bad initial Breakout period? What were some side effects u experienced?
Yes. 100% true. Also, masturbating kills kittens.Originally Posted by 7Jordan7
is it true that masturbation can make you break out as well?
