How long will i suffer from acne?!
Question:
How long will i suffer from acne?
ugh. so i just started "puburty" (such a scary word) and it is making me have pimples. i don't have it as bad, but let me tell you, each pump just makes me wild. i hate going swimming because the cover up washes away and its just, emberrasing! so, i am almost 13, and i have had pimple problems since about right when i turned11. HOW MUCH LONGER TILL IT CALMS DOWN!?!?!?! i am told that i am pretty, but trust me its not pretty without my trusty cover up! lol i feel so ugly without it! i have pro activ but it cant tackle my wild hormones! and none of my friends are going through these types of problems. i am the oldest but there are some older kids then me that dont have it so bad. its so stressful you know? so the big question is, HOW MUCH LONGER TILL IT CALMS DOWN?!?!?!?!?!?!
Answers:
Everybody is different. I started getting it at 11 too. It's still going and I'm 19! I'm very irritated. Luckily, it hasn't always been too bad. At 11 it wasn't very bad. Then it got worse, but then better...my preferred treatment is B5 and B Complex tablets, but after a while you need to take more, but that's okay because you can't overdose and there are no side effects. In the last 8 years there have been times when my skin has been almost completely clear, and times when it's been pretty bad. I'm pretty sure it's because sometimes I don't take as much B5, although I did try a few other things and didn't notice any difference. Anyway I hope yours stops soon.
