A small vent.

[mused]

My better half of my life has been ruined by acne.

I was not always this shy. I remember as a kid, I used to be the class clown. Kids refered to me as the funny Asian kid. Then middleschool came and puberty crept up and hit me like a bitch. My face became filled with disgusting acne. My confidence became non existent. I could no longer talk normally with people because I became very self concious. I knew people were staring and judging. No one would give me a chance.

I entered highschool and things remained the same. I wasn't invited to any parties, I never kissed anyone, and I always got those stares. People simply wouldn't give me a chance. I wasn't a loner however; I still had friends and would hang out on weekends and such. However, even the friends I have now, first avoided me because how I looked. As the years went by, I became less and less sociable.

What is my status now?
I still have severe acne and I am attending college. I can not talk to attractive girls for the life of me. In fact, I can barely hold a conversation with a guy. I have become extremely self concious and almost despise myself. I stutter constantly, even with close friends. I always picture myself messing up when talking. It's become a burden I want to remove.

I hate how I was never given the chance to live a normal life. I hate how acne ruined what should be the best years of my life. I hate how people just look at me and refuse to give me a chance. I hate how I haven't kissed a girl. I hate what I have turned into.

1. Dermatologist.
2. Psychologist.

Alternate weekly until cured.

Go to a dermatologist and explain this and get prescribed accutane. It is nowhere near as bad as some people say, and it is gauranteed to cure you. Your life will never be the same.

When you go, do not hint at depression as they may not prescribe it.

don't blame your acne

good advice. 2 months later OP's subject

"Girls don't like me because I can't keep my dick hard because of these depression meds and its ruining the second half of my life"

Go to a dermatologist. They work wonders. Over the counter stuff WILL NOT WORK in many cases.

Accutane.

Acne ruins lives? My mistake I always thought it was like being paralyzed or having your family die in a car wreck.

[mused]

you'd be amazed skeety. don't try to put things in perspective for me. it's difficult to converse with people when all they do is stare blankly at your acne. i'm sure you've never had to deal with it.
