acne acne go away dont come back another day.

seriously, fuck off acne. Hi, my name is Joseph. I did accutane for about 7 months and it was horrible but totes worth it, look at my posts complaing about my lips lol

[accioclearskin]

A small pimple is annoying but I'll get over it. A bunch of small ones are worse but they'll go away soon. A GIANT MONSTER BETWEEN MY EYEBROWS THO!? So rude. This complaining post is a little late though, it's been here a while and starting to go away.

[accioclearskin]

Bad night. I've been off accutane a while and I'm breaking out a bit. It really sucks. My skin is the root of my self esteem issues. Now with school and stuff, my skin acting up again is just depressing me to no end. And yet, here's the thing, it's nowhere as bad as it was pre-accutane. I just gotta remind myself that. Tips for keepin clear skin??? I moisturize daily (I gotta lol) and I feel like I drink a lot of water but I might drink more now lol. It might be from school stress/lack of sleep??? Idk. I hope you guys are all doing well.

Accepting your Acne

Big Queer Pimples, or How I Learned to Love (or Tolerate) My Acne.

Well written, amusing but the light hearted humour depicted a story so well known to myself and many i have spoken to. Do yourself a favour and give it a read.

Really loved this line. 

‘I wish I could sit down with preteen me and shake out my shoulders a little bit, remind myself that I am worth it in a lot of other ways, and even if the acne doesn’t ever really go away, it doesn’t have to define me.’

What is your acne telling you?

1 & 2: Digestive System — Eat less processed or junk food, reduce the amount of fat in your diet, step up water intake and opt for cooling things like cucumbers.

3: Liver — Cut out the alcohol, greasy food and dairy. This is the zone where food allergies also show up first, so take a look at your ingredients. Besides all this, do 30 minutes of light exercise every day and get adequate sleep so your liver can rest.

4 & 5: Kidneys — Anything around the eyes (including dark circles) point to dehydration. Drink up!

6: Heart — Check your blood pressure (mine was slightly high) and Vitamin B levels. Decrease the intake of spicy or pungent food, cut down on meat and get more fresh air. Besides this, look into ways to lower cholesterol, like replacing “bad fats” with “good fats” such as Omegas 3 and 6 found in nuts, avocados, fish and flax seed. Also, since this area is chock-full of dilated pores, check that your makeup is not past its expiry date or is skin-clogging.

7 & 8: Kidneys — Again, drink up! And cut down on aerated drinks, coffee and alcohol as these will cause further dehydration.

Zone 9 & 10: Respiratory system — Do you smoke? Have allergies? This is your problem area for both. If neither of these is the issue, don’t let your body overheat, eat more cooling foods, cut down on sugar and get more fresh air. Also keep the body more alkaline by avoiding foods that make the body acidic (meat, dairy, alcohol, caffeine, sugar) and adding more alkalizing foods like green veggies and wheatgrass juice. Another thing that most of forget – dirty cell phones and pillow cases are two of the top acne culprits and this area is what they affect the most!

Zone 11 & 12: Hormones — This is the signature zone for stress and hormonal changes. And while both are sometimes unavoidable, you can decrease their effect by getting adequate sleep, drinking enough water, eating leafy veggies and keeping skin scrupulously clean. Another interesting point: breakouts in this area indicate when you are ovulating (and on which side).

Zone 13: Stomach — Step up the fibre intake, reduce the toxin overload and drink herbal teas to help with digestion.

14: Illness — Zits here can be a sign that your body is fighting bacteria to avoid illness. Give it a break, take a yoga class, take a nap, take time to breathe deeply, drink plenty of water and know that everything always works out!

So the next time you break out or notice dark under-eye circles, look to your face map: your skin is probably trying to communicate on behalf of the internal organs. However, do remember that, as with all medical issues, it is always best to see your doctor or dermotologist for a proper prognosis. This is just a general guide to head you off in the right investigative direction – just because you break out between the brows doesn’t always mean you have a bad liver!

[accioclearskin]

MY LIPS ARE NO LONGER CHAPPED YAAAAAAAAS

Gonna kiss a boy so many times this summer and now my skin is wayyyyy better than it used to be. I'm so happy. Fuck.

[accioclearskin]

After 7-ish years of horrrrrible acne, accutane came into my life an was so rude to my lips but helped me out a bit. I was on it for like 7months. Theres a lot of scars but that’s to be expected, I still have another derm appointment to talk about like post-accutane shit but yeaaaah. Very happy, these last few months have made me a lot more confident, though it’s been reeeeeeally hard and a daily struggle. Ugh i’m way happier than I used to be though, I can touch my skin and not wince! UGH 

[accioclearskin]

Everything goes wrong skin-wise when I need it to go right fml FML

[accioclearskin]

I'm a bit sad and lonely all the time and I don't know if its accutane or the fact that I'm just an unloved single pisces with a super low selfesteem. Probably both tbh.

[accioclearskin]

️on a lighter note I'm going to drown in chili cheese fries ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[accioclearskin]

Took blood out and hated life ugh

[julianamaeeastman]

One of the worst things about being on Accutane;

is when people you have confided in about Accutane (parents, friends, significant other, etc) just FORGET you are on one of the most intensive medical treatments. 

"Like, why are you so tired all the time?"

"Oh my god you are SO dry"

"Why are you crying for no reason?"

"Your skin has gotten so red"

"Your lips are so chapped!"

"Whats with the weird rash on your hands?"

THANKS I KNOW. 

[accioclearskin]

I need to fast to take blood out tomorrow and I have a hard time doing that. I overeat in general so I'm always eating so when I don't eat for a while I feel not great

[accioclearskin]

I had a terrifying dream

All my acne came back and I thought it was real life. I was so sad.

[accioclearskin]

I don't think my acne is going to go away so easily. I'm almost done done with accutane and yet i've gotten a couple more spots on my neck and they are the first I've gotten there in a while. Sigh.
