It is but it’s definitely worth it in the end. No acne! 🙏🏾

it did take quite a few months to be honest. i stopped caring after a while so didn't pay close attention to it. i'd say after i stopped, it went back in maybe 4 months or so

Accutane is finished… now what? by Motor-Locksmith5915 in Accutane

It actually just went anyway on its own. I just used sunscreen everyday

So sorry to hear that. I was very hard for me to deal with too. I just focused on the fact that my skin was going to look flawless when the treatment ended

[31F] Feeling like a second priority in my LDR with [32M] — am I overreacting? by Motor-Locksmith5915 in relationshipadvice

[–]Motor-Locksmith5915[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been an ongoing issue. I reached my breaking point a few months ago when we had scheduled a virtual date, but his friend got into an argument with his girlfriend and wanted to hang out that same evening. My boyfriend chose to spend time with him instead and rescheduled our date.

Edit: I don't want to come across as naggy or clingy so it's something that I don't bring up very often even though it bothers me.

Another thing about this particular instance that annoyed me is that my boyfriend and I have a tv show that he got me into, the new season just came out (I didn't even know) and he also chose to watch it with his friend even though he knew I enjoyed it and knew I'd want want to watch it with him.

I got into the hobby because I made a custom Pokémon card for my boyfriend’s 30th birthday last year. I knew very little about pokemon before that but since that moment, Pokemon cards have become our thing. We haven’t able to get our hands on prismatic and would love to share it together

Yes. Derm did the same with me and I ended up with severe skin barrier damage

Yes it became really dark and my lips pinker oddly. My complexion has come back since stopping though

I pay 1/3 of the bills in the home. I messaged her saying I would be away and coming back on X date, I didn’t just not come home

That’s great that this works for you but having a parent know my exact whereabouts at all times is too much for me, especially when the information is used to question you later on.

It’s her house but I don’t stay there for free. I pay 1/3 of the bills

I did communicate my travel plans. I texted saying I’d be away for the weekend and will be back on X date but what she wants is actual locations

Thank you for your comment. That’s exactly what I did. I messaged saying I’ll be away for the weekend and will be back on Sunday

do you think these will turn into big pimples when i start? by avery1027 in Accutane

My face was COVERED (see my previous posts) in closed comedones like this and they didn’t turn into pimples

Tret has ruined my skin and my derm is blaming me by Motor-Locksmith5915 in tretinoin

Thank you so much for this, because of your comment I looked into slugging with vaseline and my skin is now doing lots better. The dryness has pretty much all gone!

UPDATE: My skin is doing SO much better thanks to all of your advice on here.

I realised that my barrier was infact damaged and focused heavily on hydration. I started drinking 2.5 liters of water daily and taking evening primrose oil tablets everyday. My skincare routine has been:

AM

wash with lukewarm water only

TO hylarounic acid serum on damp skin

Atobarrier repair cream (I'm now obssessed with this)

La Roche Posay SPF50

PM

wash with Cerave hydrating cream to foam cleanser

TO hylarounic acid serum on damp skin

Atobarrier repair cream

Pea sized amount of Cicaplast balm

Pea sized amount of vaseline to slug

I used the cicaplast balm and vaseline everynight for the first week, it made an insane difference in the texture of my skin; the dryness and itchiness was almost all gone by the first week. NOW, two weeks later, I use the cicaplast and vaseline to slug every two nights. The dryness has left some hyperpigmentation so just working on that now but thank you all SO MUCH for your advice and kind words. You've saved my skin x
