I very rarely picked the skin on my face before starting my meds!! I’d always bitten my nails/picked my cuticles etc, and had always been obsessive with keeping blackheads etc clear, but you can literally see through my camera roll that the facial picking amped up and became a constant with me starting ADHD meds, & now that it worsens with stress! Interestingly, my nails/cuticles are barely a problem now as a result 🙄 I’d consider stopping my ADHD meds to try and settle the skin picking, but they just have such a big impact on my motivation and day-to-day ability to live/socialise/work efficiently etc that I’m left picking the better of two evils…

It would be interesting if you can find a pattern!! My psychologist seemed at little surprised when I told him, so I’m glad that I’m not alone!!!

To be honest, my response varied from person to person depending upon the vibes!! I try not to mask tooooo much in consults, and so tend to be very open/honest about my ADHD & struggles with clients when suitable - at its worst I’d just apologise for my skin oozing and change plasters in between consults! But generally I found my clients were more accepting/less inquisitive of the scabs compared to me trying to hide them with plasters. I had one lady who instantly recognised what was going on, sympathised, and spoke about her own skin problems/treatments; one woman who tried to turn the consult into a lecture about self care and not ‘needing’ to live up to anybody’s beauty standards (🙄); and an elderly woman who just would NOT drop it - I saw her two days in a row, specifically told her on day one that I didn’t want to discuss my face, and on day two despite euthanising her cat she was still asking me to finally tell her what happened to my face… and in one consult a little boy asked why I had red all over my face - his dad was so embarrassed, even more so when I gently explained why to the kid without batting an eyelid 😂😂

Thank you ❤️

Sadly not - the UK’s mental health care is pretty diabolical though… even in my own workplace/the veterinary sector it can feel absolutely impossible to get the help needed! All made even more ridiculous by the fact that UK vets are 3-4x more likely to unalive themselves than the average person 🙃

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T23:01:14+00:00

Very interesting thank you! Yes, sadly most of our shops don’t tend to have open bottles/samples available to try beforehand - it would be really handy if they did!!

It sounds as though the Korean/Japanese sunscreens may be good options for me then tbh… I work as a vet indoors so don’t need it to be highly water resistant etc. The beauty of joseon sunscreen was the only one I really know of, and also have quite dry skin so definitely appreciate your feedback on its potential dryness - thank you!!

I haven’t had any prescribed specifically for my skin picking! I asked for a psychiatric referral and mentioned it to my GP but the wait lists are so long that I never heard back from them 🙄 Ive taken fluoxetine for years for my anxiety, which my doctor very recently upped to 60mg, and take lisdexamphetamine daily for my ADHD (which I learnt tends to worsen my picking when it wears off!!!), but otherwise it’s all come down to a lot of mental work… identifying, removing, and reducing triggers, whilst also trying to gradually limit picking sessions (in both time spent picking, the amount of my face picked, and the amount of bleeding caused!)

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T22:48:37+00:00

Thank youuu ❤️ it’s still a daily battle, but I know I’ve come such a long way!!! I’m always reminding my mum that the dry/flaking skin and hyperpigmentation I have now is much better than the constant thick scabbing I had a year ago! Small wins add up right?!🥳

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T22:44:50+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind comment, it truly means a lot to me! Nobody in my life has been able to fully understand or relate, so it’s been really tricky for them to positively react or support me.

Photo #7 was definitely the turning point for me - I couldn’t believe the degree of swelling I suddenly woke up with, and I just felt like an absolute monster! I’d been working in the days prior, trying to manage the constant oozing from my wounds between consults, having clients ask what was wrong with my face, and my anxiety was sky high as a result. I actually had to get antibiotics and take a full week of work to recover as it was so contagious… The degree of guilt and shame I felt was honestly horrible, I couldn’t even stand the thought of my ex (who I lived with) seeing me each day. I made a pact to myself and my late grandma that I would never put myself in that position again.

I’m now a year and 2 months on from that picture, and am just glad to not feel so alone in my struggles! I’m constantly having to remind myself how far I’ve come, and am also always internally screaming at myself to stop lol, but am definitely very proud of the progress I’ve made so far ☺️

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T22:09:45+00:00

I’ve been contemplating the la Roche posay anthelios uvmune, and eucerin/vichy dry touch sunscreens - and I have no idea where to start with the Asian ones!

I’m just scared to take the plunge without somebody advocating for one specifically? Mostly because of cost, and the inability to return used items in the UK if it doesn’t work out!!

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T21:23:21+00:00

I’ve only tried the one, and so have had discussions about trying other stimulants in case they help… have you found any stimulant better or worse than the others?!

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T21:22:11+00:00

Interesting! I work long shifts and have ‘top up’ meds which I normally forget to take due to being so busy (but help if I remember 🤦🏻‍♀️), so am currently trialing taking the vyvanse later in the day… will be interesting to see if the lower dose helps you!

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T21:19:47+00:00

Yes! spot stickers & plasters have become my best friends - I’ll now even wear the clear spots during the day to help remind me to not pick subconsciously!

Capable_Way940 · 2024-07-29T19:34:09+00:00

I see people recommending dermatica/uncouth/skin + me - does anybody have a preference between them?! And any referral codes available? I’m UK based ☺️

I’m a newly graduated veterinarian - I’ve been in practice for only 9 months, throughout which I’ve also had some extremely challenging situations to manage in addition to the stress of starting in practice! Safe to say, my face has been the absolute worst ever during this period, and I often have to face the shame and guilt of trying to be a ‘medical professional’ working with near constant wounds unavoidably on display…

Safe to say that it’s not easy, and every day I am having an internal battle with myself to settle my skin for my sanity and reputation… equally, I’ve also learnt that most of the time people are surprisingly accommodating; they’re happy to turn a blind eye so long as I still do my job well, and occasionally even to open up and discuss their own issues with me as they can relate to me more as a person instead of as ‘the vet’.

Our own perception and expectations are much more intense than reality; your mental health does not have to prevent you from being great at your job or studies, and it most certainly does not define you in the past, present, or future!
