The Journey to heal my acne

in solution •  7 years ago 

My family has the history of having a severe acne once in their lives, from my grand father to my father to my brother and to my sister, i thought i was exempted with it since i haven't experienced it during my teen years, i thought i wouldn't have to deal with it since i already reached my 20's, i was lucky, that's what revolves in my mind regarding with that case, but then it happened so fast, one day when i was 20 it started with a single pimple then another pop out, and another and another until it invaded my whole face, i wasn't really bothered by it since it's normal in my clan, i was actually chill and nothibg serious to panic about it, i even liked it because i didn't have to worry if boys around me would hit on me, i had less attention from many but also i was disgusted by the people with my acne, i accepted my fate, and live my life like i was born with it, that's how confident i am, that's how i dealt my problem, it wasn't a problem to me not until it became a pain, i can't sleep at night because of the pain that it brought me i can't even eat what i want because my dermatologist said i am not allowed to eat many kinds of food that could cause the trigertriggering of my acne. I was devastated, crying for the agonizing pain to stop and let me be, i was seeking help but nothing really works, from many dosages of medicines, soaps and creams, to injections (that i don't really want to take because i have a trypanophobia) and supplements, i gave up trying to look for a solution. I even experienced an empty bank account just because i wanted the pain to go away, paid my doctor's bills but still nothing happened. Then my dermatologist had to talk with me since the procedure is not working due to my phobia and bankruptcy :P she said i need to try a product that might help, so with a little faith to it i said fine, at first i was really hesitating but since it's ny last hope i agreed to try it.received_1165226076920885.jpegFB_IMG_1516469414152.jpgFB_IMG_1517927964652.jpg

Healing takes time, it took me five yrs of struggle to finally be free from the pain.
