I’ve been suffering with acne from 2019 till date. The hormonal acne started out small only for it to get cystic and very painful. I am from a poor family where my mother isn’t working and my stepfather only earns R2000 on his ShopRite trolly collecting job so this makes it impossible to go to a dermatologist because every little money we get, it is for buying food. I am doing my third year in UJ and would appreciate every help you will be able to give because this acne is making my life difficult. The physical pain and mental pain is very serious and it has gotten to a point where I no longer want to live this life. But I have to live as the first born child in order to get my degree and help my family after securing a job. I’d like to also study medicine as it is a course that I am very passionate about but because of circumstances, I am unable to study it. Please help me. With the money raised I’ll be able to get proper medical treatment for the acne at a well trusted dermatologist and be able to also pursue my life long dream of becoming a medical practitioner.
