Attitude

One of the things I struggled with when my adult acne was at it's worst was maintaining a positive attitude. No matter how nicely I dressed or fixed my hair, I knew people were focusing on my acne. How is a person supposed to stay positive when you have bad acne?

Ignore the fact that they stare, the novelty of it eventually wears off after a while. Besides, your acne is on your face, you probably just think that everyone is staring at it. They're probably just keeping eye-contact.

The more you worry about it, the more you find ways to worry about it. Being self-concious about it just causes problems. Don't worry about it and forget you have it.

I agree with Dartz, a lot of the time, all you need to do is remain confident in yourself, not just your looks, but also your own charisma and intelligence. A lot of the time, these people might just be looking into your eyes, not necessarily at your acne.

Yes having confidence will help but it can be hard to have this when you worry what people are thinking of your acne.
