Acne is ruining my life- please help!

Hi! I am 24 years old and have suffered with acne since the age of 11. It has never been as bad as it is now. I have tried just about everything, but nothing has worked. If anyone can please recommend anything for me, I would greatly appreciate it. My info is as follows:

Shirley V-
24 yrs old -feb 24, 82
4' 11'
fluctuate between 105 and 115lbs.
Colombian descent born in Queens, New York
Fair skin with medium brown thick wavy hair
Nails are brittle, bend and break easily
Stretch marks on abdomen, thighs and legs from pregnancy in 2002
I had placenta previa when pregnant and had a c-section.
Asthma from childhood, gets worse in winter when I develop a cold or when stressful situations occur.
I had a fibroid tumor removed from my right breast in feb 2005.
I have acne on cheeks, neck, forehead, chin, sometimes on nose, back and chest
Acne on back is swollen and painful
I have been a vegetarian since Jan 2006, no meat except fish and seafood
I have had acne since age 11 when I started my menstruation. It would clear up on and off. I had it really bad when I was pregnant. Then I cleared up beautifully in 2004 and through out 2005. In august 2005 I started breaking out again, and it has only gotten worse. I have papules with no head, very painful.
I was going to a dermatologist last year, I tried doxycycline for 6 months, tazorac and countless other prescriptions. Nothing helped. My derm wanted to put me on accutane but I decided it against it because of the side effects. I have tried detoxification, herbal pills and teas, exercise, and every over the counter cream/gel available.
I break out more right before I get my period.
I resent criticism, especially regarding my face. I get depressed easily. I don't like to go out a lot because of my face.

Anything other information you need about me please let me know. Thank you for your help.

Shirley-It sounds like you are having a very difficult time with your skin. I believe part of your problem is your hormones. Have you had them checked? Also, it is great that you are a vegetarian, however, I would consider removing soy, wheat and milk products from my diet for a short period of time. I am allergic to soy and didn't realize that most vit. E comes from soy-so my chin was constantly broken out. I also use Dr. Hauschka skincare products-expensive but they are gentle and they work as the same principles as homeopathics. Check these products out on the internet.

I am 32 and everytime I have a stressful situation I get these deep painful cysts on my temples and sporadically on my forehead. So, I have tried lots of different things. I have read that your face's pH is actually acidic, and through my research I have decided upon Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar. Now, I don't know if you can just buy any old apple cider vinegar, but, I believe if it is important to you you will buy the best!
I put my first application on last night and immediately all of the acne started to get whiteheads. I extracted them and put another application on. So, today I am sitting here with a paper towel soaked in apple cider vinegar and writing this. I think I have found the best method. I will post again when I know for sure, but, I have no new acne. I wish I could control the source, though...the stress. When I get stressed I can actually feel the acne pulsing...it is painful and I always feel it is getting worse by getting stressed. Good luck!
