The biggest help for me was getting enough sleep. My teens and early 20's were pockmarked nightmares of 18-36hr days. I was 25, with endless failed product tests behind me, before I noticed a few good 8-10hr nights of sleep would clear my mess. Even now, in my grumpy oldness, a big sugar or chocolate influx with a late night can bring back the fun.
Acne sucks, but keep trying. Between the various products, a healthy diet & sleep cycles, you'll at least reduce it.

There are a vast number of people who are uninformed and heavily propagandized, but fundamentally decent. The propaganda that inundates them is effective when unchallenged, but much of it goes only skin deep. If they can be brought to raise questions and apply their decent instincts and basic intelligence, many people quickly escape the confines of the doctrinal system and are willing to do something to help others who are really suffering and oppressed." -Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, p. 195
