Indeed this is a super necro thread, makes me miss mal. Odd timing, though, since I'm in the third month of Roaccutane myself. I tend to agree with noodle (and the peer-reviewed studies) that indicated the depression was largely a factor of the age group of patients (teens) and persistent issues of self-worth and beauty as a result of the already present acne. They've done a lot of research on it, even since this OP, and the most common issues are simply dry eyes (brutal for me, right now) and chapped lips. The Chron's connection is largely at the behest of ambulance-chasing lawyers, not any demonstrable link.
