Especially in spring in summer, my skin purges. It's never been this bad for 5 months (I'm 29)

It is my hormones and the hormone imbalance that's the problem. My body can't regulate them properly. My parents are angry at me for something I can't control, even with washing. As if my face, disability and twig arms aren't bad enough, my skin also has to work against me.

I've seen many dermatologists. I can't take Accutane (isotretinoin) anymore because I get some of the more common and less common side-effects (hair fell out badly). I've tried almost everything. I'm left with breakouts and acne scars and sun spots and dents in the skin. My health insurance even paid for the lasering once, but the acne came back and scars re-surfaced months later. We can't afford to pay this on our own more than once. I won't be able to afford proper "treatment" without my parents, I will always be a low-earner.

Normally, this should stop at around age 20 or even before that.

When the sun hits my acne scars, they darken and make me go from a 2/10 to a 1/10

Brutal, same here. I get a light tan for a while, after a few weeks but then it just gets worse after and before that tan

do you have any allergies that could lead to that?

i dont have any acne scars fortunately but the sun darkens me a lot , originally i had fair skin the rest of my body still looks fair but my arms and face look like well done steaks , thats why i have been using sunscreens lately

good question... not that I know tbh. I always liked to drink milk, I still do, I used to drink milk like a calf kek. But I don't think I have lactose intolerance. It might make me breakout, in addition to other stuff.
Sweating is very bad too. My skin can't regulate oil production correctly.

Me too, in summer after a few weeks. Then it covers my pigmentation spots, acne scars and acne. I still get breakouts though. But autumn/fall-spring, the skin is just worse again because the tan doesn't cover the skin problems.
