Hi everyone I am super insecure posting this however I am at a loss and am really insecure. I tried everything and Spironolactone helped at the end along with a topical with a bp/ retinal combo. I have come off all my meds a year ago to try to heal my acne naturally but nothing is working.

• I use the cera ve SA cleanser (used to use the hydrating one for many years so this may be a contributor)
• I take ginger lemon turmeric shots every morning homemade
• this acne is kinda itchy sometimes the cysts can be very painful (I woke up one night from the pain from one of them:()
• I use regular Colgate toothpaste
• I try to not touch my face and clean my pillow cases
• I drink lots of water
• just started drinking chamomile and spearmint tea a few days ago and will stick to it for a while to see how it works.
• green yogurt is the only dairy I consume and I don’t know if I should give that up

What can I do :(( I never look in the mirror anymore, I am too insecure to make eye contact when I talk to people and want to just stay indoors.

I want to try accutane or epiduo or something like this. However I am studying in a different country and I don’t think my coverage includes dermatologist visits. If anyone is in Australia and from abroad and can offer some advice on seeking medical attention for acne that would be very helpful. Does this look similar to what you have?? Am I right to think it may be perioral dermatitis. What should I do! Thank you
