[QUOTE=NorthernFall;26052278]I'm on 40mg of Isotretinoin a day currently, it's definatly messing with me, getting headaches a lot and my eyes are messing up at night time. Also, not being able to drink heavily sucks.[/QUOTE] I used top take that but I never got any of those things... what exactly do you mean by your eyes messing up at night?
Holy, reading this makes me glad i never got acne.
Accutane is some really, really crazy shit. I personally haven't used it, but it's because I don't have health insurance and you have to go through so much shit to get it here in the US. You have to consult your primary doctor, get a visit with a dermatologist, and if I remember correctly, you have to visit a psychiatrist too, but I might be mistaken on that one. I had a friend who used it, he was really hyperactive and always happy. When he was on the stuff, he was noticeably more gloomy and down. It was kind of depressing because we used to do all sorts of stuff together and while he was on it he was always grumpy and got pissed really easily. :frown:

They need to make a study on gingers. Just to see if the shit Cartman says on Southpark is true.
I actually took Accutane. They made me read this book about it, there was a list of huge side effects, and a whole bunch of other shit. But that was 2 or 3 years ago. The only thing that happened to me was my face cleared up and my lips turned into solid, crusty, pointy rocks for the 3 months I took it. Now I'm off it, and my lips are normal, as is my face. No depression here!
I was on the stuff. It didn't make me depressed or anything and I'm pretty sure that those rumors have been mostly dismissed. It did have some pretty awful side effects though.
