Admittedly this is a very strong title to start any article with but for anyone who has a first hand experience with a bad skin condition such as chronic acne or acne vulgaris, they will all too well understand the implications of this title.
I have named this condition a silent soul destroyer because I believe very firmly that this is exactly what it is.
Found in both females and males this skin condition attacks without mercy and can turn normal looking skin into weeping pustules and eruptions almost overnight.
It destroys lives because it attacks the one thing that is very precious to most people and that is the confidence and security of being normal.
Of coarse it doesn't attack the soul directly, this is merely an attempt to point out the psychological implications of this ailment, but it does attack the individual's appearance and appearance to most people is likened to a shield that protects them from the cruel and wicked intentions of the outside world.
It is extremely common for people to suffer from Acne Vulgaris in their teenage years which in it's self is a daunting prospect.
Teenagers live in a fickle world where their lives are built upon plastic like manifestations of untouchable people who live in pop videos or are featured on the front of glossy magazines.
Show me a teenager who doesn't follow this trend and I'll give you a dollar as unbeknown to them, they are all prisoners to this concept.
A teenager with Acne vulgaris sticks out like a silo on the plain and like a silo on the plain they get noticed...
but for all of the wrong reasons.
Getting noticed can be a pleasurable experience but for the person with severe or chronic acne, they are immediately singled out and canner fodder for shallow people with a grudge against life and a mean streak that is only tainted at the merciless expense of others.
Unbelievably, this skin condition will affect 90% of the population.
Don't even think about celebrating the fact that you haven't suffered from Acne vulgaris in your teenage years as this little critter can attack at any time of life and often does.
Upwards of 40% of the adult population are suffering from acne vulgaris which most commonly attacks the face, back, neck and chest.
If you are a sufferer of Acne then the best advice is to learn as much as you can about your skin condition.
