#roaccutan

[thestupidityofi]

Don't get tricked into drinking roaccutan by your doctor.

That's the pill that makes you bald.

It also cures acne.

and makes you bald.

SO NO MORE ACNE.

but now I have no hair :(...

i need advice on this ASAP:

I’ve been on accutane for almost 6 months and in the past month and half I’ve been having horrible break outs, so does anyone know if it’ll stop? Cause it’s making me really depressed and I don’t want to leave my house and I need to know if it will improve cause I can’t take it anymore

21 years old

I'm officially legal, all around the world. I should be happy on a day like this. But all I have been doing is crying. Inside. Trying not to show it. I was on a date last week. They guy was really exited to meet me before the date. But he hasn't showed any interest afterwards. I'm not a weak person. But I know he rejected me because of my acne. I know that. And as much as I want to be strong, as much as I don't want to care. It hurts. It hurts my little heart to know that people will always judge me based on my face. I'm gold, but some people want silver, and that's okay. But at the end of the day, it still hurts.

Extremely dry and irritated labia- is that a side effect someone else on accutane is familiar with and can relate to?

Over 2 months

Hey there!  I realize that I haven’t written anything in over a month. I suck. But everything has been so fucked up. Christmas break was good I guess. Then I had my finals, which killed me. And then my bestie left for NYC to study at columbia, I’m so glad for her, but I miss her so much. Hopefully we’ll reunite in june in NYC. Also I’m moving soon which has turned my apartment into one big mess. Anyhow tomorrow I’m going to start taking 50 mg instead of 40, which feels good. Because honestly I don't see any changes at all, in fact all I can see is more acne than ever. My mood swings are the worst. I don’t thing I have ever cried as much as I have in the past 2 months. Literally anything will make me cry. I’m guessing that is a side effect of isotretinoin. Next month I’m meeting up with my doctor again for the first time since I started.  It feels like I’m just wasting a lot of money for nothing... and that is one of the reasons why I haven't really been up to writing here.. If this doesn't work, I will go to plan B and that my friends will be laser!  Ciao!

Dagen jag började med roaccutan.

This date marks the beginning of my accutane journey.

19/01/16 Nu har jag i nästan en vecka gått på roaccutan. Jag kan inte se någon skillnad än, såklart. Min hy är ok, får se om det börja bryta ut snart som läkaren sa att det skulle göra. Jag är torr om läpparna och i näsan, men tror det kanske beror på att det är så kallt ute? Är ju torr om händerna också. Annars har jag känt mig deppig de senaste dagarna... Vill tro att det är tabletterna men antagligen beror det på att jag är så fruktansvärt stressad pga jobbet. 

Almost 1 week on accutane. I obviously can’t tell any difference yet. My skin is ok, no major break out so far. My lips and my nose are both really dry but I think that could be because of the cold weather. I’ve felt kind of sad lately, I’m not sure if it’s because of the pills or if it’s stress.

I’m not updating a lot because really I only have negative things to say lol. The acne is getting worse. I’m drying out like the desert. My foundation is not helping me as much as it used to, probably because of the dryness. I’m going to try olive oil as a very nice person suggested and hopefully it will help my scalp at least.  In 7 days I get to go home to my mommy and the rest of the family. As much as I love uni, I can't wait to be home for two weeks and enjoy some delicious food. Perhaps the break out will calm down afterwards.  Something worse than the dryness is that I’m not spending as much time with my friends as I used to. Not sure if this is a side effect or just me. But I feel like being alone more often and I’m slowly drawing myself back. I really really hope this is just in my head and not happening for real.

After only two weeks of eating my meds my skin is starting to look so much better ;_________:

I’m so happy. I never thought I could actually get rid of my skin problems
