Another perception on depression and teenage acne in Chico, California. 530.680.2027
There are different types of stress, and your body doesn't know the difference. So, whether it's emotional, physical, chemical - stress is stress. Those who are prone to acne, will likely break out when they are stressed. Depression is a type of emotional stress.
I often think, that many times it is the parents who are more worried about their kid's acne than the kid them self. You are a parent, it's your job to worry! Just remember, chances are that no matter how much you think you are hiding those "worry vibes" your kid is picking up on it - loud & clear. It is easy for acne sufferers to slip into depression, so one of the best things you can do as a friend, as a Mom, as a boyfriend is to stay positive. And remember, there is a difference between "positive" and "annoyingly positive." Someone who is positive, can still be empathetic, but at the same you need to mentally wrap them in a halo of white light and send them "good juju vibes" - every single day. If they sense you are worried or overly concerned, you may be giving them more reason to feel bad. So, continue in your loving way as parents do, and think positive thoughts!
