I just came back from the dermatologist

They told me its normal for me to get acne at this age.
My case is only mild.
There are 4 things that can cause acne apparently
Hormones
Emotional Stress
Menustration
Genetics
My Dad said it is not genetics because my mom or him didn't get acne. He said that I had all of the rest, though.
I said, "It can't be mensutration! Mom got it when she was 16!"
And hes like, "WELL MOM HAD SOME TYPE OF GROWTH PROBLEM AND YOU ARE MATURING WAY FASTER THEN MOM EVER DID I THINK YOU'LL GET YOURS MAXIMUM IN A YEAR BLAH BLAH BLAH"
They prescribed me some product that I have to use every day and night and then epiduo which I use every other night for the first two weeks
My skin might get dry or itchy when using the products

I CAN ONLY USE WHITE PILLOWCASES CUZ THIS THING BLEACHES IT. I CANT USE MY PEETA PILLOWCASE FOR NOW ='(
Apparently it will bleach some of my clothes?
I won't notice change until after a month?
It will take 3-4 months to get the full treatment?
FUCK.
THIS SUCKS.

I'm sorry you have to do this.

I won't really end up going through this so I can't relate at all.

Thank you!!

Me either~
But it's worth it to have your skin clear up. Trust me, it's one of the best things in the world to wake up and not see any zits on your face.

I can't even remember those days.
