Need help jumpstarting your enthusiasm? The following is a list of things you can do to act enthusiastic until you feel enthusiastic:

Call most enthusiastic person you know. Rent an inspirational video like “Rocky” or “Working Girl.” Do something that makes you break a sweat. Stand in mirror and shout word “yes” as loudly and passionately as you can. Buy a motivational tape or cd to play in car while driving. Make a list of benefits of reaching your goals. Organize a pep rally with people on a mission similar to your own. Spend time doing something you absolutely love to do. Talk talk. Eliminate negative speak from your vocabulary. Get plenty of rest. It’s hard to feel enthused, eager or exhilarated when you’re tired.

Focus on your greatest assets as a person, or cultivate new skills. You may be an awesome guitar player or fabulous singer, give yourself recognition for your strengths. Do something that you’ve always wanted to do, but did not do because you felt having acne precludes you from this activity.

In final analysis, healing an acne fetish starts with recognizing that this condition has serious medical repercussions. An acne fetish can debilitate one’s self-esteem while encouraging needless facial scarring. If you think you have an acne fetish, you can get help from a qualified dermatologist, psychologists or just talk it over with some really cool and understanding friends.
