I've had acne since junior high and it has affected my life so much. It definitely ruined my teenage years and I'm still suffering. I've tried many medications, creams, face washes and have had mixed results some great some bad, but my acne always comes back. Depression has been a part of me for many years and have had many suicidal thoughts. For a few years my acne went away and that's when I had a great life. My self esteem, and confidence were high and I had no negative thoughts about myself. I was finally enjoying myself the way i was intended to, I made a lot of friends, I was happy, and then the acne returned this year. I have now completely isolated myself from everybody. I never go out, I don't talk to any of my friends,and avoid going out in public as much as i can. This entire year has been horrible. My depression is at its worst and have had more suicidal thoughts than ever before. I'm have an optimistic personality so I haven't made any suicide attempts because I hope that soon my acne will go away and I can go back to being happy. Although sometimes I feel completely hopeless and break down in tears. I can't believe that I'm going through this! It makes me so angry and sad. I feel so disgusting and can't stand it anymore. I really hope that my acne goes away soon because I don't know for how much longer I can live with it. My depression is so severe that I think about it 24/7. It has ruined all my relationships with friends and family. I need to stop writing because this is just making it worse for me right now. :[

4)dont get angry and stressed out.... and avoid unnecesary competition like playing chess or sumthing like that comp games too...!!!
5)drink a lot of water atleast 3 litres..that should clean ur system and make u poop proper ... lolz :D
6)sleep is a major factor .... yeah u need basically 8 hours BUT u need to sleep on TIME like 10 or 11 pm..staying up late heats the body and then sleeping 8 hours wont do...:[ and try some yoga.:)

Having bad acne is really depressing. This lowers one's self esteem because of the horrible look you have due to acne. This often results to mockery. You're always teased.
Frankly, I've had this bad acne before but it never came to my mind to commit suicide due to this. Instead, I find ways in order to solve my biggest problem, acne. Luckily, I found Puraskin Acne Treatment which amazingly and effectively cleared the acne.

I have had acne since I was 11 years old. That is about half my life, since 6th grade. My acne was always pretty mild and didnt really affect me that much. It defantly made me self concious and i pretty much tried to stay alone. in 10th grade my acne got more moderate so i saw a dermatologist. he gave me antibiotics and it cured me 100%. for the first time in my life i was free. i had friends, women, everything i could want. then suddently i got resistent to the antibiotics and got severe cycstic acne. ever since then, my life has been torture. i cant take much more of this pain. every day i think about suicide. and the worst thing is, ive tried everything, even accutane. nothing works for me. why me? why must i suffer like this? i would give everything i have just to have clear skin and be normal again. its so depressing knowing that i will never have friends or ever have a girlfriend that i will love. ill always be known as the freak with acne. i just want the pain to go away...

sorry but i couldnt resist i needed to reply. I have had acne since i was 11 as well, and it has gotten worse over the years, thankfully though my friends look past it and never really minded. I am struggling with trying to find the cure and suicidal thoughts often cross my mind, who doesnt wanna have clear skin? I understand your pain. I really do. Have you considered natural remedies? I was never consistent with them, but there are a ton that showed results yet i wish my depression let me continue. Google natural remedies for acne and try a few, what you gonna lose? Either we learn to deal with this or we fight to get rid of it and i think im done with letting it invade my life, Arnt you?

I know just how you feel. I am currently suffering from severe depression because of my acne. My acne was under control two years ago and I was happy with my self. I finally came out of my shell, made a lot of friends, went out with confidence. Well that was short lived. This year my acne came back and things have gone down hill since then. I pretty much completely secluded my self because I am so depressed. I stopped talking to all my friends, family, everyone. I don't leave the house ever unless I absolutely have to. It sucks to bad. I have been having suicidal thoughts pretty much everyday or just about. I am very sad that I have those thoughts and don't want to end my life because of acne. But the acne makes me severely depressed and sometimes i feel that if I am completely unhappy with my life then what's the point of living? The only thing that is keeping me from going through committing suicide is the little hope and optimism I have left.

What could be the much worse case scenario for a guy like me.. im a legit model.. doin ramps winning competitions left and right having chicks along and having a happy life.. then suddenly zits controlled my life.. this has been a horibble year for me.. everything is gone.. not a single thing has been left at me.. the only thing that makes me happy is driving my car and working out.. iv been hiding from my friends and they even ask me if im still alive.. even concealers cant cover much anymore like how it used to be.. its horrible.. i feel for everyone.. im with you.. lets just face it rather than acne control our life.. maybe thats just life then but we have to fight.. oh men... ridiculous..

Its hard to leave my room never mind my house, I hate going in the bathroom or riding in the front seat of a car because of the mirrors, my parents force me to be in public and then tell me i dont have acne. My friends get mad at me for not hanging out with them like its my choice. when it all started my girlfriend of 2 years left me and i cant find the courage to even approach any girls. I grew a beard and my hair long to try to cover it up and often think about killing myself. The only thing that saved my life is racing snomobiles and motocross cuz with a full coverage helmet on it dnt matter what you look like cuz you can still whip up on acne free kids and still lookbad ass!!!
