A letter to the people struggling with acne

To the people dealing with acne,

For anyone out there dealing with acne, I see you. Maybe you’ve been dealing with it for decades, or maybe it’s just come out of nowhere late into your adult life. Or maybe you’re a teenager and just got your first pimple ever.

Acne comes in many forms, sizes, colors and on many different types of body parts, though I have yet to ever see one on the bottoms of feet. As for my acne, I tend to get welcomed from them in any part of my body at any given time, most common being on my face, typically the cheek area.

If you are suffering from acne, just know the pain, the frequency and the longevity of it are all trying to communicate something to you. I believe each person has a unique reason why they’re breaking out and there’s someone out there who has the answers, implementations and support tools needed for you. If what you’ve tried thus far hasn’t worked don’t give up. And don’t get let down when loved ones offer unsolicited advice and recommendations that you’ve probably already tried, they are just trying to help.

Wishing healing on us all,

🩵
