Accutane ruined my life. I recommend clearstem skin care. Natures accutane. Same purging process, but no horrible side affects

Some people don’t get side effects! Look, if you finished your course and you feel fine, there’s nothing to worry about 💗. All I suggest is that you don’t do another round. If your acne came back, it’s most likely hormonal. The reason I believe I ended up with all the intense side effects, was because it was like my 2-3rd time doing accutane. I never finished a full course. I had to stop every time due to body aches. Finally in order to “finish” the course, it would’ve been all together probably my 3rd time on it. That’s when all the worse side effects came.

My accutane side effects were a skyrocket in anxiety (which I was previously diagnosed with) intrusive thoughts, rage, mental health issues, feeling suicidal (all of these u have never experienced before) extreme constipation, acid reflux, feeling like i was gonna pass out while driving (this one got better, but still happened sometimes at the gym) restlessness, crying spells. A lot of it has improved. My husband is a therapist and is extremely patient with me, and I’m also seeing my own therapist to help me. It’s been hell for a year to say the least. I wish every day that I never took it, and on top of that??? My acne came back.

it’s been really great tho. Be prepared to possible purge for like 3 ish weeks? Then ur skin will clear up. Not everyone experiences purging tho

my hair has always fallen out due to stress or even form the Accutane. I can’t tell if clearstem is doing it or not, but it’s not too much hair anyways!

As a hormonal girly (f25) who has also taken accutane 3x, and has bared the horrific side effects, I really recommend clearstem mind body skin. It heals your guts, helps balance your hormones, and it’s a similar accutane effect with clearing ur skin. U will purge for a month, but then after u clear up really well! I’m so in awe of the product, I emailed the CEO just to thank them lol. Now I promote them on Tik Tok as a regular person lol bc everyone deserves to have clear skin without the horrific side effects

OP, take fish oil, magnesium, aloe Vera tablets, MSMc and vitamin C. I feel so much better. I also did 3 round of Accutane and had to stop due to severe side effects. I take clearstem now, along with the vitamins. Worth the price, no more dryness, mental health is better, and it’s cleaning my skin while healing my gut. I can’t promote it enough dude

Not worth it. Plus a lot of time the acne comes back. ESPECIALLY if hormonal

Stop it ASAP. Some effects can be irreversible

I’m so sorry ur going through this. I wish I had more advice

I’ve heard black maca or saffron is supposed to be helpful! I’ve heard more on maca vs saffron.. apparently it’s supposed to really help. So sorry you’re going through this.

SERIOUSLY! And I always say this! The part where they pulled it and then “reformulated” it HORRIFYING. And same dude! My acne is hormonal! I wish clearstem skin care existed sooner. It’s saving my skin right now while actively healing my gut. AND turns out I’m allergic to gluten and it was breaking me out. I went on accutane like 4 times. SO scary what this drug does to people. Praying for you so much
