No matter what I do my acne won’t go!!😖😞

I’m

21 and for 7 years now I’ve been struggling with my skin.

Facial acne, back acne and a few spots on my chest.

I am at breaking point now.

I have tried EVERYTHING

When I was 14 I when my acne was at it’s worse, I got given a pill from the doctors to take one a day and some gel. The gel dried my skin out but the tablet worked fine at the time.

My skin was VERY scarred from me picking at the acne and also red blemishes were left.

Since, neither of these have gotten better, and every time I get a spot whether I leave it or pick it (which i don’t really do anymore) it ALWAYS leaves a red blemish that never goes.

I am sick and tired of my skin. I feel SO insecure. I can’t remember the last time I left the house without makeup on.

In face I can’t remember the time I went a day without wearing it.

I know makeup won’t help it, but my insecurities get the better of me😞 it makes me feel so so ugly and gross, in fact....it makes me feel depressed. I tell my boyfriend not to look at me when I have no makeup on,

We’ve been together for almost 3 years and I still get up before him to do my makeup before he sees me and last thing at night before I get into bed, that way he can’t see me bare faced😣 I can’t put into words how bad it makes me feel.

I have tried all sorts of

- exfoliates

- creams

- diets (healthy, non healthy)

- Exercise

- more water

- just so many different products from different brands (high end and cheaper)

I have wasted so much money on skin care it’s a joke.

If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

I’d love to go to a dermatologist, but they’re just far to expensive 😣

My skin type is oily/normal

VERY sensitive

Allergic to tea tree

I had a baby 7 months ago too (but that’s made no difference on my skin)
