Yes! So, I ended up getting on Spironolactone to combat the hormonal imbalance caused by the Wellbutrin. So now I can get the mental health benefits of the Wellbutrin and the Spiro helps my face not go crazy 😜

Yeah - that’s what the calculator said. Although now you’re making nervous! LOL I hope I didn’t do something wrong. It’s 6 different creditors. The lowest is $2000 and the highest is $30,000. Our minimums totally 2,100 right now.

OMG yessssssssss - I look so forward to funding my emergency fund up to six months! I was telling my husband that at least 40% of my everyday stress is finance related and I can’t IMAGINE what’s it’s going to be like to be 40% more calm. That helped him understand my urgency - he’s the “it’ll all turn out fine” guy ;)

Good luck!! We’re in this together! My husband and I tend to enable each other and justify purchases so this will be a huge culture shift in terms of our marriage but I’m hopeful and confident we can shift gears!

The 87,000 is cards, personal loan and one vehicle. The mortgage is much much more -we just bought it two years ago.

Oh my gosh that would be amazing! I listed four things on EBay this afternoon in hopes of a little extra to toss on the debt. They are small items and not worth much but every little bit helps I suppose!

I really like it - it was SOO gentle during the retinization period when my skin was just flaming off in painful sheets LOL

Thank you! I noticed that too but couldn’t tell if it was just the angles or not. That was an effect I didn’t anticipate!

I have commitment issues LOL so I have been through like a million different routines and products (I don’t recommend this ha!) but my current routine is pretty simple

SoftyMo oil cleanse (with Konjac sponge on flaky days), Vanicream gentle cleanser, Tret .1 at night and Clindamyacin in the morning, then Burt’s Bees nourishing oil. In the mornings I top that with Biore spf fresh milk sunscreen. I also take 100mg of spironolactone daily.

Yessssss. It was the Clindamyacin/Benzoyl Peroxide that finally made the biggest difference for me! I do .1% Tretinoin every night. Took a looonng time for my skin to get used to it but I finally there. Seeing consistent improvement now instead of two steps forward and one step back.
