[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, My 14yo daughter has very severe acne. We've started the process to start her on Accutane after the bloodwork and pregnancy tests are completed. My concern is the side effects of depression. My daughter isn't majorly depressed, but she does have periods of depression and anxiety. I've been trying to find a psychiatrist to meet with her, but everyone seems booked up - even for tele-appointments. I'll keep trying. Has anyone had experience with Accutane and depression/mood swings? Thank you.[/quote] I was on Accutane as a kid and it definitely caused depression and passive suicidal ideation. It wasn’t worth it - the acne was better than the cure. It made me feel like my parents didn’t care that I was miserable as long as I looked pretty. I would never do it to my kids after having gone through it myself. [/quote]
