Sometimes, I find myself just wanting to stay indoors and not go out side at all. My face breaks out in an almost daily basis, I am tweenty pounds overweight. I can not stand the way people look at me, I feel as if they are staring at my acne and not me! I feel like an freak of nature. I am currently in school about to graduate in seven months, I don't know if, I am going to make it. I don't have many friends, because people just don't like me, maybe it's my acne, looks, humor ect...ect. I have about three friends and they have weight or physical or social issues just like, I do.
My self esteem has been drastically affected by having acne, I have always had acne since puberty, but not this bad! When I turned tweenty-five the acne became worse, I gained weight and began sweating more profusely than usual, I am begining to wonder if I have hyperdrosis! My doctor thinks that, I am getting all worked up over nothing! she diagnosed me as having anixiety and told me maybe the symptoms and pain was all in my head.
I am going to need extensive plastic surgery, once my PCOS symptoms are stabalized.
hey, sorry ur feeling this way - i know how it is tho - i had the worst acne ever a few yrs ago - but remember u always think its worse than it actually is, u'll definately notice it more than anyone else will - dont worry what people think tho - i know how hard it is to not care but try. can u join an art/book club to make some more friends? ru seeing a counsellor - i'm in my final year at university and have loads of trouble during the past two years cos of my pcos - i went for my first session today - i didnt know what to expect but it was actually really helpful. and i think it'll help me thru - i know how stressful college life can be. or cud u go and see ur tutor to talk over some of ur worries? try going for walks maybe with one of ur friends - exercise always helps me feel better - just take it one day at a time tho. i'll be thinking of u
my mum always says 'a smile is the prettiest thing u can wear', try to rememebr that - even if u dont feel like smiling i find jut trying to smile hels lift my mood
xxxxx

right now I am using acne free by medical university. you can get the kit at wal-mart etc, it's a knock off of proactive.

The more you stay indoors the more you will get depressed. We're like plants we need the sun to live and the sun gives us seratoim(sp?) and it boosts our moods. As for what you described it just seems you are lacking self confidence and that is it. I know what you are goinging through. I use to be paranoid thinking everyone was staring at me and my acne ect. Then I changed my view on life, got some sunshine and smiled all the time and I became more self confident, people started starting conversation with me..... I know it is easier said than done but just become more optimistic, get a makeover maybe to lift your confidence...sorry I can't really help you
