You know... I have bad acne. I had it from when I was 14 and now that im 18 it hasn't changed. I am the only one of my friends that has it. I am also the shortest and i don't have a six pack either.
I know what you are going through, but trust me. You are beautiful. I don't have to see you to tell you that. You know visual beauty is not something that should be taken for granted. Trust me, when your condition will better you will achieve a sense of self worth you never knew you had. And thus you will become a better person.
Take it as a test and beat it. There's not realy much you can do about it but you must live it through. Its the only way.

Im 15 and started suffering from acne when i was 14 . most people tell me i dont have acne but when i have a pimple i squeeze it and then it turn's into a painful scab.. sometimes i get so many scabs on my face..I cry like all the time because i think im ugly and i always hide my face away.. its really hard as i get so paranoid when i talk to people ,all i feel their looking at is the ugly things on my face.. lately ive been thinking about suicide. i dont see the point in living anymore when all i do is care about my face all the time and nothing else.. it stops me from going out and even school. im so ashamed of my face and just want to die.. ihate my life right now

I understand where you are coming from and feel exactly the way you feel. I am close to my 40's and going through the worse form of acne and do not know why I keep going.

sSould admit I'm one of those people who think of doing suicide because of bad acne. Well its not really just about the acne, the effect of it when people notice it and what feeling its bringing to the person. Been suffering from acne since high school and now I can say that it has lessened but there are times that my pimples all come out even if I'm not stressed or doing a lot of things. I really cant understand the purpose of pimples haha why are they created lol (well yeah I know they come from hormonal effect)...just saying that I think of suicide too..its crazy I'm but just being real.

Permanent remedy for acne is marriage. if not feasible, minimise oils, fats, butter, ghee, from ur diet. meditation/yogic exercises shall halp u to outbeat acne. If u r in India, we shall send u medicine. For heaven's sake, don't think of suicide. This wonderful human life is very much dynamic, exciting and even the Gods also are attracted to the love, affection of humans.The reason of non-remedy for acne is too small to commit suicide.

Much of the dynamic, exciting abstract of life is blocked by this tedious disease - acne. Don't even mention love.

I really feel that acne has taken away a lot of my youth. It has affected my skin since I was in 6th grade and now am I freshman in college. It ruined my whole middle school and high school years. I would cry all the time, had few friends, people were rude about it sometimes. It has had a serious impact on my mind, it makes me have suicidal thoughts every day and I can't stand to look at my face, which i would think was actually pretty without this horrid disease. i don't know why I had to be cursed with this nonsense.

I have suffered from skin problems for a while. When I was in high school, I was so ashamed that I would eat my lunch in the bathroom. I missed about 30 days of school in my second semester. I prayed and prayed. I used to look in the mirror and cry because I felt like I was the ugliest thing. I would walk around school with a hoodie on, and lost many of my friends because I secluded myself. When I was seventeen I attempted suicide by taking sleeping pills and ended up in a crazy, asylum like facility. After I attempted to kill myself I vowed to never do it again because of the look in my mother's eyes in the hospital. One day I took a random physical for my freshman year of college. YOU SHOULD TAKE A BLOOD TEST. Before I started college, I took a blood test and found out that I was ANEMIC. When you're anemic your body can hardly fight off infections. After taking iron pills for about two weeks, my face was flawless. Make sure you go to a doctor, because most acne is caused by internal problems.
