Accutane Diary Day 1

The first day of my journey through 6 months of Claravis, otherwise known as Accutane. It cuts off oddly towards the end, and sorry about the contrast, it's so high in this video that you cant see a thing on my face :/

what antibiotics did you try before accutane?

[DestructiveCreation]

Minocycine and Tetracycline I believe, something like that. But they were really harsh on my body and made me really nauseous :(

This will be me in approx. 30 days! I'm a little nervous. XD.

[DestructiveCreation]

Congratulations! I'm almost at month 4 right now, and it feels like I just started Accutane not that long ago. Once you lose track of days (because you will probably count up to date 27 or 30 before you start seeing it per week, and then per month) you'll see how time flies. Remember, the first two or three weeks are annoying, but then your body gets used to the process.

You have amazing skin to look forward to!

[claytablets]

Aww thank you! I'm just worried about a lot of the side-effects I've read so much about. I'm sure I'll be fine but before you actually begin taking the medication, it's a little unsettling.

I like you're videos.

Keep it up. :)

[DestructiveCreation]

I wont even take tylenol for cramps, so you can see I hate medication as much as anyone. But holy jesus my skin is just incredible in comparison to 3 months ago! It's been worth the battle for sure :)

sorry if you took it that way, i gave you my honest answe, in fact my answer was just one sentence and then you kinda went nuts. sorry you go through a bad time, but if age isn't that big of a deal, why did you mention it. and im sure there was a good reason you were put on accutane, im just sayin my personal opinion(which you were askin for) is that i dont think a girl at 15 should be on it, let alone anyone 15..there is so much improvement that could be made in time..but good luck though

[balletgirl6]

I'm pretty sure that it doesnt matter what age you are.. It's also in my family, so i'd like to get rid of it now.. I'm not here to fight, I don't understand why this bother's you so much. It's not like I'm going to take your comment to heart and stop using accutane.. just calm down, it's no big deal! Life is good, there's no need to be out looking for fights.

[cwoodmak13]

hmm i dont..gee well im on accutane as well and i am a 20yr old male, so actually i have, and been havin to deel with it for 5 extra years. and also, my grandparents, uncles and aunts, are all scared up, with more scared skin than smooth, so that will happen to me if not treated. your 15, your at an age where 90% of teens suffer from it. accutane is should be used as a last resort not for kids that just don't wanna out grow it possibly

[balletgirl6]

Maybe.. but you don't have to deal with people staring at you everyday because of your face.. I may be young but i still feel everybody staring at me and i'm sick of it!

[cwoodmak13]

to be honest you shouldnt even be on at it at a young age
