Horrible Experience
Hi guys. Looking for sympathy really with the people who understand
acne. The most horrible thing happened to me last night.
I was out with 4 friends in a pub and a man approached us. I’ve know
of this man and he has been in prison for beating people up so I was
quite cautios around him. Any way he was pissed as as I got up to
leave he shouted ‘You can see the clearasil hasnt been working
Julia’ ‘It’s disgusting your covered in zits.. I bet your boyfrend
dosent like it’ ‘ unless he’s covered as well. I wouldn’t like it if
you were my girlfriend it would make me feel sick’ ‘Your always going
to be covered in spots. I might be fat but I can go to the gym to
lose weight your never going to get rid of your spots’ This was
shouted out in front of everybody if the pub. I walked out in
tears. He really humiliated me with his insensitivity to acne.
Be careful people there are people like this out there and if it
wasnt for the fact that my friends are so understanding and so is my
mum god knows where I would be now. Please let me know if anyone
else has had a horrible experience like this as I think a problem
shared is a problem halfed and I do feel better for talking about
it.

Hi,
Sorry that you feel you are ugly. I’m sure you aren’t. Make the most of
yourself and keep telling your self you are beautiful rather then ugly. In the
end you will belive you are beautiful.
Acne is a horrible thing to suffer from mentally but it probably makes you a
stronger person in the end.
I’m also depressed think it’s all to do with my hormones. I’m taking evening
primrose oil and for the first day in months maybe a year I have felt good.
Take care and do what makes you happy with life.
I haven’t lately but I was badly picked on in Niddle school. I broke
out early…around age 10— so at the time very few others in my
age group had achne. My dad broke out early, I got it from him. I
still have problems though…especially with big pores…and between
that and being overweight, and sufferent from depression I have a
very bad self esteem. I’m sorry that happened to you. Its the other
person who is "ugly" though…on the inside at least. He is the one
with the problem…not you…now if only I could get myself to
believe that about me..LOL

Kids can be so cruel! Don’t listen to them………..it may help just to
talk with your parents about it or maybe a good friend who you trust?

Hi,
I have a story too, it might not sound so bad, but when it actually happens it
really hurts, and im a really sensitive person and all and i just got really
pissed.
Well im in 6th grade. Well when i was going home on the bus one afternoon,
My friends did
this one boythat was sitting diagonally from me and said "You should wash your
face and wash those zits off", this really pissed me off because i knew that
that’s not the reason i have acne, and he thinks i have a hygiene problem when i
actually do all i can and put effort in getting rid of this, i mean, who
wouldn’t? well i just pretended like i didn’t hear him and pretended and tried
not to care, but it really hurt me. and then a few minutes later my friends were
talking with this girl and mentioned something about me and said my name and the
girl they were talking to said "who’s that" and my friends pointed to me. and
the same boy said "oh i thought you were called something else, but i dont want
to say it out loud" this made me feel really bad, and its not like im mean too
him or anything, he just doesn’t like me because of my face
stick up for me a little but i dont think they understand. Im one of the very
few 6th graders (and even the whole school) who has a face like mine.
well just wanted to share, and it does make me feel a whole better since i
cant talk about it with my parents or friends becuase they never had acne before
and they dont know how it feels like
