 Acne Doubles Suicide Risk in Teens
Arecent study funded by the Norwegian Institute for Public Health found that teens, who have severe acne, are twice as likely to commit suicide as their peers who do not have acne. There is still some question as to whether or not certain acne medications may play a role in the alarming statistic.
Nearly 25 percent of the teens with "very much" acne said they have had thoughts of suicide, compared with 11 percent of the study participants overall.
