spots on my bum, dimples and much more

As a person who has been given an abundance of reasons to feel insecure, I know your frustration. The only thing that really made me feel sane was talking to my friends and others in a similar situation. Is there anyone you can talk to?

In what parallel universe is saying "visit a GP" attacking you out of nowhere?

Hormones...

I sense hormones running around this thread.

Are you making a joke at my expense? Because it's not funny. At all

No.. The answer could be hormones...

Drink at least 4 litres of water over a day, take a vitamin supplement so you know you're fully covered there. Don't touch your acne, keep bedding clean and changed regularly - in particular your pillow. Exfoliate at least a few times a week.

4 litres is easily achievable. But it's up to you, definitely helped me not to be a spotacus.

I've got loads of pimples on my bum. It's horrible. Almost every inch of my body is covered with spots apart from my two arms, and hands and two feet . I'm horribly underweight and have chicken legs with chicken spots. Acne on face. Bacne. Marks left from chicken pox on my stomach from years ago. Spots with white puss on my neck. I'm literally a walking spotacus.

Please, no abuse. This is a serious issue for me.

4 litres a day seems a bit extreme in my opinion lol. I'm no water tank. But yeah, good advice thanks. I exfoliate every day. Do you think that is harsh on my skin? I just want to scrub all those spots away

Hey there! Other than healthy eating, good exercise and maintaining a healthy washing routine (all of which I'm sure you're already doing) I'd recommend either Zineryt solution or Differin cream. I had really bad spots for ages and lots of stuff did **** all for me as well, but then I tried Zineryt and it really did help. After a while this sort of wore
off and things started getting worse again, but several months ago I started using differin cream. It was fantastic and has really, really helped me. Plus it doesn't smell and isn't sticky or oily like lots of skincare products. So yeah, definitely give that a try It worked for me and I thought I was doomed to a life of acne (seriously, you name a body part, I've got an acne scar there). So yeah Hope that helps!

NO! You should not, under any circumstances exfoliate everyday.
Exfoliation should be once a week, or maybe longer. Its only to get rid of dead skin cells.
Scrubbing too often is very bad for your skin, it makes it very tender and prone to more spots!!

Make sure you do not even wash your face too often! What happens when you wash your face too often is that happens is you strip the natural oils from your skin, so then your skin secretes more and more oil to counter balance you stripping it dry. This is a huge factor of oily skin and spots.

Please don't feel self conscious. It's not a big deal. There's much worse things you can be called than 'spotty'....
"racist, homophobic, rude, shallow, vein' etc....

A lot of it is just hormones. I used to have terrible acne and now it's all cleared up. It's very common and its nothing to be ashamed of.

My ex had really bad acne and it used to get him down, but it seems way worse to you than it looks to anyone else. You really stop seeing it when you spend a lot of time with people.

It could easily be dietry. Being horribly underweight is probably a large factor..but sometimes it's just genetic! You may grow out of it.

Chocolate is a huge cause of acne, fizzy pop, high in saturated fat, not enough fruit and veg...etc.

Make sure you're eating a healthy balanced diet, drink lots of water and that's all you can really do....

If I were you I'd probably look online at some anti-acne food.
Other than to keep your skin clean, and don't use anything that will irritate it.

I used to use murad when I had acne and it cleared it right up.

Also, don't stress! Stress also causes break outs!

Have you tried consulting a doctor?

Nawh. I've actually never thought of that before. Duh. Another useless contribution
