Here is a short version of one of the worst cases of acne that I ever had. It had to do with a very stressful week. Not only was I watching a child at school that was not diagnosed with a severe case of ADHD with extreme violence mood swings, but my ex-wife had just served me with court papers for the third time. All of this stress came crashing out all over my face. It was at that point I realized that stress is a huge motivator for acne to appear all over your face and body and there’s nothing you can do to stop acne except wait for everything to calm down. The moral of the story is to relax and sleep as much as possible and you my friend will end up virtually acne free.
