Acne


Question Posted Tuesday September 14 2004, 1:01 pm

I have this really bad problem with acne. Its weird and i never heard of anybody else having it. I like to pop my zits. I know thats gross, but i just cant help myself. its like an addiction, i love the way it feels. Its almost like how a cutter feels when they cut themselves. Its a type of release. Im not being covered with scars, because ive been popping them for several years. I want to stop but i cant seem to stop. When i tell people they think its a joke. I'm afraid to take off my shirt in public now. What should i do before i become one big crater!!!

Well, there's nothing wrong with popping your zits. You're obviously doing it in an alright way if you are not leaving scars - the only problem is that picking at your acne can often make it worse. You don't give things a chance to heal.

The best thing would be to try to stop for two weeks - wash your face with a product containing salycilic acid at least once a day (but no more than twice), keep hydrated, and in two weeks time you might not have any zits left to pop!

I don't think this is something you should worry about. Plenty of people pop their zits, and I imagine most get a certain satisfaction about it. I wouldn't obsess over this - you are normal mentally, and now you just have to try to help your skin out!

Good luck.
