Acne that is ruining my life.
    #20487345 - 08/28/14 03:12 AM (9 years, 5 months ago)

So I told myself A while ago that I wouldn't make a thread about the biggest problem in my life. But I feel as though I need to express my feelings and get a bit of support from some people.

My skin is so bad. I am not talking like the occasion break out I am talking cystic disgusting hurtful shit that takes over a month per to go away.

I cry almost everynight because I can feel and see my life being literally shattered, One by one the relationships with people begin to lessen and it's because I can't go out anymore. I just can't. I don't like being around my friends because they all look at me like I am an alien. I have one friend left who will always be there for me and even still I feel like I am slowly getting outta contact with him.

I can't socialize properly I act normal but can feel the people I am conversing with don't want me around. Honestly I used to be this charming, charismatic and handsome dude and I know that because my younger photo's show that. But now my face is overrun with red and I feel like every move I make is being judged.

But this really isn't about relationships or being judged. It's more about what could I do that will help get rid of the acne. I would show people pictures but I choose not too look at myself in the mirror anymore and taking a photo would be just as bad.

I do not touch my face. Only when applying my new regimen from acne.rg.
I have a healthy diet that consists mostly of fresh fruit and vegetables and then at night I will tend to have a cooked meal at night but it will be healthy because I stray from unhealthy.

I am vegan which means I do not consume any meat or animal products.
I exercise about 4 times a week but make sure I am cleaned afterwards.

I try and get at least 30mins of sun onto my face a day and meditate everynight but to be honest i don't know if I am doing it right.

I have 6 ganoderma 500mg pills a day and sometimes up the dose to 7 or 8.
I go to bed at 9 - 10:30 most nights except friday and sat.


I do not drink I have not had alcohol for over a year.
I do not smoke I do smoke weed every now and then though but would consider that helping because it makes me very relaxed.

I try live stress free but these past couple weeks have been hell and I have been on this battle for about 2 years now.

I wanna know if anyone else has been in a situation similar because I am stuck in a hole that is getting deeper.

I have done mushrooms twice and have found both experiences to bring a lot of positivitey in my life and if anything help my skin get better.

I will add more stuff later probably. Thanks guys :smile:

Dont get so worried theres tons of people of suffer everyday through similar experiences... you need new friends if they cant even be mature or coexist. Unfortunately i don have any practical advise to help your situation but i try my best to not let things bother me and my appearance has never been one of them (and certainly i have my flaws) and im absolutely sure you're perfectly attractive and truly anyone worth while would have no problems what so ever with server acne.... we all have shit. some people are shit :shrug::hug::hug::inlove3::inlove3::yourock:

Sorry to hear about your situations obviously its hereditary if you doing everything else right....those i would say are non factors. Maybe look into proactiv or another acne medicine? Go to different dermatologist an get different opinions. Can you grow facial hair I know that for me this helps prevent any acne or pimples from forming.

Nah I wouldn't knife it hahaha!

Yea I don't know I actual just went and looked in the mirror for the first time in like a week. It's looking a bit better then normal. When I first started getting bad acne I did pop a huge cyst it's still scarred.

I gotta be honest I feel a bit better after looking in mirror but it just gets worse and worse like.

Yea I can grow a mo and a goatie. I can not yet grow a full face but my father has trouble with that aswell. The new regimen thing im on I am 3 days into it this is sort of my last hope but I have heard great things about it so I am hopeful.
You guys are so lucky ya know I used to give zero shits about anything I sortta miss it aye.

I gotta be honest tdubz I noticed my skin is better when I don't shave aswell hahaha. Cheers for the positive support guys.  :cheers:

tdubz gave good advice. Look into proactiv and go see a dermatologist for some professional advice. I had pretty bad acne in my younger years and I understand how frustrating and depressing that can be. It will calm down when you get older.

How experienced are you with hallucinogens? I would think that actually looking at your face under the influence would be kinda weird and may not feel so good, but it could help you realize that this is a passing phase and things will get better.

dude ive been exactly in the same situation ,if anything im in it still right now because i went on accutane and then 8 months later  it came back which is why im back on it again, not to mention ive got terrible scarring and once im even outta the acne field ill need to get treated for that too eventually which not only sucks but costs a shitload too

not only that but i was the same, tried everything, dude if its really bad, theres not really much that will stop it, especially if its the hormonal kind which it sounds like, which is what i have

your best bet is to see a good dermatologist and get yourself on the right track

some people just being clean and healthy prevents it, but for others like ourselves theres not really much other option unfortunately, the only thing i wish i had done, is to have gone sooner and treat it years ago before it really started becoming a problem, its almost 7 years ive dealt with it so trust me on this!

ive noticed mushroom trips help a fuckton , but still once ur sober again the condition will still depress you eventually if it doesnt go away

all the best brother hope you find something that works for you!

Bro i literally made an account just to tell your gonna make it g, I went through same thing your going through. It started with back acne and being prescribed garbage ass pills and creams that did nothing but dry my skin. 2 years later then 2013 my face blew up with fucking acne right when I graduated from high school. Literally never having  acne in my face i went into a deep depression not leaving my house not answering my phone for friends not even going out side only going to work, I would cry before work, had my coworkers ridicule me and shit, my confidence, self esteem , my ability to talk to people went to shit i cant look people straight in the face, knowing they would look at my once handsome face in disgust now riddle with god awful redbumps and white heads, all i did was cry bro.Quit my job due to all the ridicule started selling unmentionables cause you know my insurance for my car cant payitself. So i researched what could help me and accutane was the answer I got, pretty much chemo for acne . Its a high dosage of vitamin A that destroys the the sebiscus gland or someshit spelled like that.That gland produces the oils that come out of your pores. My skin and your skin cannot exfoliate  the dirt in you pours thus leading to fuckass acne. Accutane is a last resort option and the only real cure for acne, all that other shit sold for fighting acne is bs and just makes it worse. Accutane is a very strong medicine it has the power to cure your acne or worst case scenario fuck up your liver and give chrons, so then your stuck with acne and then shitting blood for the rest of your life.Its a seven month regiment with accutane, the first 4 months it will only get worse before it gets better. Dont drink alcohol not even once but i did smoked bud every single day and I turned out fine. This past may I finished accutane and my skin has never been clearer i mean literally have a baby's ass for a face for how smooth my face, chest and back are.(: Trust me you will get through this  bro and hmu if you need advise or just wanna talk. Btw keep in contact with people cause I lost all my friends cause they think i didnt want to chill with them when they would call me to party and shit  but in reality i was crying in my shower all day and how i would never get laid lol and now my lonely ass has to start learning how to socialize again with out having to look at the floor when im talking to people.Dont eat alot of milk products or greasy food and drink straight up water all day. Dont wash your face at all just take a hot shower and it will mellow the swelling and the redness.I hope you read this cause i feel like some crazy dude on an acne rant.One love bro - PS fuck acne and smoke a shit load of weed cause your not gonna be happy for a while till the accutane finishes its genocide on the acne, just being A1.

There was just a thread about acne prevention and treatment. I used to have a bit of systic inflammed shit but I got perscribed 100mg daily minocycline and that went away in less than a month. Now any random pimples that pop up are dealt with with tretinoin gel.

Here is the thread, I recommend reading it.

Best of luck man.

Accutane FTW! It has some side effects, but so dose going through life wanting to hide ones face. That said, you should look into what the side effects are and weigh the pros and cons. The one particular side effect that is concerning relates to depression and suicidality... That's scary shit! I used it for two courses of treatment over two years and nothing I had ever done came even close to how well it worked. Good luck.

Dude, it sounds like you're on herbal supplements. You really need to be on actual medication and see a dermatologist. A lot of people have said it but accutane is likely what you will get because of the severity. If you are concerned with the side effects they can put you on other medications like antibiotics and also a good dermatolgist will monitor your liver function while you are on it. Best of luck to you man.

maybe that happens to you but for me it made me stop giving a shit and actually be happy, shrooms are great for me atleast when it comes to this issue and depression, hell i think its more effective than any other treatment like pills for depression or whatever they treat it with

best advice which i stated is go to a dermatologist first and THEN take shrooms once ur on the right path

thats basically where im at again already and im much happier for it

u will seriously be happy your trying your best to solve the issue instead of doing things which just clearly arent effective enough and will eventually make u feel worse again when they dont give you the desired results

anyway its ultimately up to you mate, ive given you all the advice i can , hope you learn from the mistakes ive made

Koods is right, mushrooms will make it so much worse, they have a tendency to shove my insecurities in my face, many of which I forgot even existed. Secondly, those people aren't your friends, and you deserve better than having to call those shallow idiots your friends. You're probably not so bad.

My sister struggled with severe acne her whole middle and high school life. She got tormented over it, and would cry every morning and fake sick to not have to go, so I have a soft spot for your issue. She did everything and saw every doctor she could. Eventually her skin cleared up. She was even on Accutane, but that stuff can be dangerous.

You'll be fine OP. :hug:

As a few others have mentioned, take a look at Accutane.

Looking at oneself in the mirror while tripping can be pretty traumatic, too.
