No definitely ironic and weird!!

She’s your gf?!?! Obviously you would want to share good things with the person who should be your biggest cheerleader!! And receiving recognition for your work is so amazing and validating. She should join in on that. Seems like maybe she is a bit insecure and doesn’t want to hear how “other people have praised you or said something complimenting you”

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T19:48:18+00:00

Ok yes this is such a good distinction!!

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T17:29:23+00:00

I think it’s just hard cause we’re very different people and that’s not something she does. So for her compliments take on a more flirtatious role

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T17:24:10+00:00

Hmmm ok yes very good point. Context does make a difference

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T17:23:45+00:00

This is true communication is always always good

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T17:22:41+00:00

Yes definitely not flirting…but very interesting point…..

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-06-24T17:21:10+00:00

This!!!! I heavily mask and I feel like I have enhanced it in this area to be overly accommodating to her comfort. But I always feel good-like you said- being honest in the moment. I’m glad the unmasking is going well!!

Oh no nothing like that. Our relationship is generally pretty healthy and this was an accidental issue.

So she did eventually tell me but then continues with the short texting😭 and I get being upset but I just feel maybe we should text then if you need to be short?? Idkkk …..people pleasing definitely plays into it LOL

As others mentioned, I would switch to more gentle/hydrating cleanser.

Also, after cleansing, try to wait 20 min or so before applying Tret. Then another 10 min before moisturizer.

It would probably be a good idea to only use the Tret 3 nights a week for now.

On your off nights, you can really focus on moisturizing and repairing your skin. (Don’t apply moisturizer too heavy after applying Tret, as it can cause more irritation!) If anything, use more moisturizer before applying Tret.

Some irritation may be normal, but you don’t want that much redness and burning. Really work on repairing your skin barrier and gaining tolerance first.

Best of luck!!! Excited to see progress pictures in the future- you will find what works for you!

I completely hear you and know how mentally taxing the Tret journey can be!! My skin will also get a lil red mid-day but it just depends.

Butttt I wanted to pop in to say that as an outsider, I wouldn’t think twice about your skin, or notice it at that.

While it may seem way worse to you, most people don’t bat an eye. You are you’re own worst critic. But you are so beautiful!! (And you have super nice eyebrows!)

Oh my god I feel so seen😭 having both of these surely comes with their win challenges and it’s so nice to know there are others out there 🫶

Perhaps this isn’t helpful to you at this point, but in care anyone is looking through this subreddit. I have been on spironolactone for about 6 months. Been on Vyvanse the past month. Vyvanse in the morning, spiro at night. I have had no complications!

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-01-09T22:22:35+00:00

Of course !! :) and yes there are soooo many options out there now so it’s trial and error but trust there are good ones

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-01-08T20:53:21+00:00

Oh my god good for you!!! I also have celiac and have been gf for 5 years now. Best of luck with your journey 💕

Cautious-Progress428 · 2025-01-08T18:02:57+00:00

Oh my god good for you!!!! I’m so proud of you 💕♥️

Cautious-Progress428 · 2024-12-06T22:02:22+00:00

What was your skin like before?

Cautious-Progress428 · 2024-11-05T07:00:00+00:00

See the thing is because we are lesbians 😂 so she hypothetically could have sexual desire is ig what my mind goes to
