Today, I found myself admiring my eyelids for being the only parts of my face not covered in acne. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I noticed that my acne has gotten so bad, I can see it out of my peripheral vision. FML
Today, I found out that the acne under my arms was worse then the severe acne on my face. FML
Getting on a bit
Today, I’m at that glorious age where I have to pull apart my wrinkles to get at the zits hiding inside. FML
Today, I'm now able to put my acne cream on my face without having to look in the mirror, because I've memorized the crater and trench-filled war zone that is my acne-riddled face. FML
Today, I realized that at 20 years old I already have noticeable wrinkles around my eyes. But to balance it out, my chronic acne keeps me looking youthful. FML
Today, I realized that I can't shave my unibrow because I have too much acne on my forehead. FML
Lumpy
Today, I woke up with a pimple on my eyelid. Not only is it impossible to cover up with makeup, I can't pop it either. Now I'll be spending the rest of the day trying not to blink. FML
Today, I realized my acne looks like star constellations. I've already found the Little Dipper on my left cheek. FML
Stolen valor
Today, I was complimented on my freckles. I don't actually have freckles, just a load of blackheads that won't go away. FML
Today, I finally saw a dermatologist due to my unusually severe acne. Now I know I actually have a rare disorder that makes me allergic to my own acne. FML

Been there. Acne is one of the few drawbacks to being young.

I know exactly how you feel OP. I've suffered from acne for 7 years & have tried virtually every kind of anti-biotic available from my doctor, but nothing has completely worked. In a world which seems to value looks over everything else, don't let acne define you, there is more to you than your skin :)

OP, hate to tell you this, but the actual 100% flawless cure for acne hasn't been found yet. Differen't creams and such may work for you, but make sure you shower once a day, and change your bed covers daily. If you can't, get a fresh towel and cover your bed/pillow with it.

You may want to consider drinking raw milk (unpasteurized, non-homogenized milk), at least until your skin / body is more in balance. It has a lot of nutrition that our processed diets sorely lack. You can often buy it at farmers' markets. Research the risks and benefits.

Better nutrition may be one reason why many of our grandparents grew up washing their faces with bar soap yet had glowing skin.
