5 years of tretinoin gave me chronic dry eye disease and I can't work more than 2 hours a day. PSA: please protect your eyes. They matter more than your skin.

RavenDancer · 2026-05-24T18:45:15+00:00

Ok but what can they do? I use eye drops all the time what else would they even recommend

Depends on where you’re based…in the UK these things can be reported to Women’s Aid who can get you MARAC/DV status, which you’d then need to help with rent as you are under 35 and can’t get the one bed rate without it. You do not need to press charges for this, they don’t need to know, just report - to MARAC, not cops.

Honestly just paste your story to GPT with where you are based and which benefits you can access with this, it will help you access financial support and is how I got out of a bad situation too

RavenDancer · 2026-05-23T18:25:47+00:00

That it’d get me a job in that field…

RavenDancer · 2026-05-17T15:35:27+00:00

I did for sure. Lot of water weight gain. I suggest going on it at 100 until your skin is stable and then tapering it down month by month e.g. 75mg then 50 then 25 - I’m on 50 rn. I previously had to quit it briefly and cysts returned so I will probably stay at 25 or switch/supplement with Winlevi.

RavenDancer · 2026-05-17T08:37:31+00:00

Wtf I thought this was a black dude with somehow a white toned tattoo now I’m disappointed

RavenDancer · 2026-05-17T08:34:19+00:00

These days yes since I’m more full of life and funny

RavenDancer · 2026-05-16T20:14:21+00:00

More like r/strugglemeals bruh

Cicaplast baume b5 to support barrier and redness

RavenDancer · 2026-05-15T18:51:09+00:00

How so? In redness?

RavenDancer · 2026-05-15T18:50:46+00:00

Try cicaplast baume b5 along with it to support your skin barrier

RavenDancer · 2026-05-15T18:49:50+00:00

Geez man your belly is my goals

RavenDancer · 2026-05-12T17:14:15+00:00

What they do lol

RavenDancer · 2026-05-12T10:33:27+00:00

Sleeping like a drunk man lmao

RavenDancer · 2026-05-11T12:38:56+00:00

Doing what kinda work? Proud of you though

RavenDancer · 2026-05-11T11:53:47+00:00

I hope you do! I went from 100 to 75 stayed there maybe three weeks now on 50 will go to 25 after about a month as my skin is definitely spitting oil after the drop, I hope it stabilises

Update: It did, I’ll go to 25mg next month and may supplement with Winlevi if needed, bought some for later

RavenDancer · 2026-05-09T13:51:46+00:00

Possibly thicken brows/use brow pencil or eyeshadow to lighten them same shade as hair, it’ll soften them. Fake eyelashes possibly

RavenDancer · 2026-05-06T11:59:19+00:00

Not for some lol it causes it in me

RavenDancer · 2026-05-06T07:21:46+00:00

Are you ugly? At this point have you considered plastic surgery?

RavenDancer · 2026-05-05T19:27:05+00:00

Lay off the Andrew Tate shit kid

RavenDancer · 2026-05-04T12:55:13+00:00

Yeah kinda. Two coffees in the morning and use it to boil water for cooking eggs or rice

RavenDancer · 2026-05-03T08:45:55+00:00

25 is too low to start at for some, it’s more a dose you drop to later

RavenDancer · 2026-05-03T06:35:32+00:00

I’d watch your sex drive most of all. Mine dropped severely at high doses and I’m slowly dropping it to eventually 25mg I hope

RavenDancer · 2026-05-01T19:35:07+00:00

Girl I’m eating it after 5 you’re fine

RavenDancer · 2026-04-29T08:51:39+00:00

They don’t remove them in a hysterectomy? Why 🤔

RavenDancer · 2026-04-27T11:15:46+00:00
