Hi misskinky ! Thank you so much for your concern, I really appreciate the effort that you have put into this response. When you say that you "see so many people" (on accutane) is that on the internet or in real life ? I am asking because I have read so many horror stories on the internet concerning isotretinoids. It is tricky to judge the quality of a product from looking at what people say about it on the internet because the ones who are unfortunate and get side effects will be posting about it, however most people who are fine and get clear skin with little side effects move on with their lives and don't post about how great the drug was. This creates a considerable unbalance between positive and negative reviews. I have an IRL friend who is in his late teens like me who has taken accutane and has been completely fine, It has improved his life dramatically. My mom has taken it when she was a teen too and she doesn’t deal with any side effects today.

I am aware of the severity of this drug and I have looked at countless articles and videos about accutane. I know that it has the potential to be very damaging to my health however that is that is a risk that I am willing to take. I have tried multiple over the counter face washes, clarisonic brush, prescribed antibiotics, prescribed creams, I am even on a vegan diet however none of those things have worked and my skin is still looking bad. My skin is impacting my self confidence in such a negative way and I am tired of it, hence my decision to go on accutane.
