For most of my life I never had to deal with acne, I just didn't get it for whatever reason.

But now for the past months I've been having some acne breakouts, but only on both sides of my jaw, near my ramus.

I'm thinking it's because there's dirt or sum getting into my pores after I'm shaving. But I wash my face after I shave so I dunno what's happening.

I'm talking to my parents and they've been saying it's hormones giving me acne.
But I've also been talking to them about getting accutane cuz it isn't going away.

Tretinoin works good as well but I’d still get on accurate if I were you

I'm 17. I think I'm kinda stressed with school work. But the school work stress has only been a thing for me since like April. While the acne on my jaw started in late February

I always drink a lot of water.

I think sleep might be my problem however. On weekdays I get into bed after like 10:30 and usually fall asleep like an hour later. I wake up at 6:30 am after

Ok there is no issue with taking accutane

Just do not stress, especially do not stress about the acne and try to get sleep
 
I'm thinking the cause is either underlying stress or maybe the sleep. I don't eat a lot of junk food ever.

How does one not stress. I feel like my consciousness just kinda takes a back seat. Like I'm zoned out, but constantly zoned out. It's like I can't fully pay attention to the world around me

My friends told me that's called dissociating
