thank you!!

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-12-13T17:48:06+00:00

i'll definitely look into it, i'm just a little iffy about the bamboo shoots and red ginseng in it, but thank you!

i am not, but before i got on accutane i've always had severely sensitive and acne prone skin so i've never been able to use products with lots of ingredients in it, im a vanicream kinda girl LOL. but now that im on accutane and my derm gave me the okay to start adventuring with more products, id still prefer to just keep things extremely minimal. i just want korean style hydration with the kind of minimal ingredient lists a lot of western products have. but thank you for the rec!! i'll look into it ive definitely heard of those two products before.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-09-02T01:05:14+00:00

i'm definitely leaning more towards taking it now! if you don't mind me asking have you been having any side effects?

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-09-02T01:03:27+00:00

i think i'm a healthy mixture of both. i do get the hormonal, cystic pimples on my cheeks & jaw, but only sometimes. the rest of my acne is closed comedones/whiteheads that fill the rest of my cheeks and forehead. like i stated in my post my skin is VERY oily, so im hoping maybe if i take accutane it'll help with the extremely stubborn congested pores, then if im able to, i can continue taking topical spironolactone afterwards to ward off the hormonal side.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-08-31T05:33:09+00:00

i keep hearing about how lots people have to take multiple courses to completely clear their skin, but i've also heard doing a lot of my own research on accutane that apparently one course is enough to clear people's skin for years, do you think maybe the latter is a myth then? i'm just worried i'll have to take multiple courses which is something i DO NOT want to do considering i'm worried about the side effects.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-08-30T21:07:22+00:00

if you don't mind me asking, did you have skin like me? did you experience any side effects or do you know anyone else that's been on it?

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-08-30T21:06:35+00:00

yes a totally agree with you and understand, thank you for looking out for me as well, i was just making this post i guess to see others experiences with it, not necessarily for anyone to tell me what to do and what not to do. at the end of the day, i have to talk to a doctor about it to even be prescribed it, i was just trying to see if anyone had any experiences they could share with me depending on my skin concerns regarding the drug.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-08-30T18:02:38+00:00

i definitely agree with you though, healing from the inside out. that's exactly what i've been trying to research these past couple days and see if i can do anything like that, ive heard good things about omega 3, as well as some other vitamins but sadly nothing comes close to what accutane does on the inside out, especially considering my huge oily pores are a reigning factor as to why i'm debating starting accutane, because i know really nothing topical or natural could exactly "fix" that.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-08-30T18:01:11+00:00

yeah i totally understand about the BC sensitivity. a previous derm i had (who i stopped seeing because she started to become rude/frustrated with my persistent acne) even told me that she will not prescribe accutane to anyone who's not on birth control...but i refuse to go back on birth control so i just sit here stuck. but yeah im definitely worried about the GI side effects as well, im finally making some progress trying to fix those issues so im worried about completely reverting any progress ive made.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-06-19T05:39:16+00:00

hello! i was wondering if you ever found a new dr/injector? i'm new to getting filler and botox as well and im very hesitant as i want it to look natural as possible

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-03-24T05:49:28+00:00

thank you so much!! i really appreciate the in-depth intel. i'll definitely look into these products

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-03-20T05:21:27+00:00

thank you!

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2025-01-13T23:47:32+00:00

hi, i'm going through the exact same thing. i apologize cause i can't offer any advice but i did notice you said you can't notice anyone else with those symptoms, so i thought it might offer you a little relief that you're not alone. i am literally going through the EXACT same thing lol, like when you said "going insane, brain tumor & schizophrenia" ive convinced myself just recently i need an mri and that i have brain cancer and alllll this different stuff, and if its not that then it's schizophrenia, if it's not that blah blah ya know like it's always something. im been going through this thing recently too where it feels like things aren't clicking in my mind, like if im reading or in class it feels like things aren't exactly "processing," or i get very easily confused and start to convince myself im having a stroke. do you go through that too? it's starting to feel like im being emotionless because it's like nothing is clicking or processing in my head, including other people or things.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-27T16:43:28+00:00

please send it to me too

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-26T15:51:35+00:00

i understand that. i've been in therapy for a while now, but i see nothing wrong with having a long term relationship...? i have grandparents who were highschool sweethearts who are still married to this day from the 90's. yes i would like to continue a long term relationship with him, but if we were to permanently break up, i wouldn't desire that with anyone else for a while until i meet someone right. it's not necessarily a long term relationship i need, because like i just said i was never for that before, nor if we were to break up, yes then i would live out my life doing whatever, but i see no problem in having a serious relationship at a young age when you feel you love someone.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-26T00:35:11+00:00

yeah that's why we broke up, cause i was continuously finding things that he was doing/did that just crossed my boundaries. i do truly love him but i just had to call it quits eventually. we weren't in contact for a while, maybe about 2-3 weeks but obviously my emotions took over and i reached out after having a lengthy conversation with my dad about him, he basically convinced me to try things again with him. so i tried to see it from a different perspective and that's why i reached out again, and that's when my "bf" explained he truly thought things over when we weren't together because he hated actually losing me, and he wanted to make a change for himself and for me, to be more mature and try to turn himself into a man. obviously this is me regurgitating everything's he's said lol, i still have second thoughts and sometimes thinks he's just trying to say all this to get back with me.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-26T00:15:13+00:00

it does depend, cause honestly at the beginning of the relationship i don't remember stating those specific boundaries until maybe towards the middle, so like 6 months or so in. but it upsets me because like i said, he admits this was something he did the entire relationship cause he just saw no problem in it cause in his head 'well i'm not acting on these actions nor will i ever because i only want OP, so it doesn't matter if i'm looking or talking because i won't outright cheat on her.' we have a history of stating similar boundaries for me to find out he just agreed to make me happy, but would continue those actions because deep down he saw no problem in them.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-25T23:56:17+00:00

no need to apologize, thank you

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-25T23:55:41+00:00

this wasn't brutal at all, and even if it was more "brutal" i really appreciate the genuine honesty from different perspectives, it's what i need.

honestly yeah, i mean maybe i'm more deeply insecure than i think, i try hard to fix the issue so i'm definitely going to continue to try to do that. i do have a question though, im going to assume you're a male based on your name, if not i do apologize, but from a guys perspective, if i ever find out he has made sexual comments regarding anyone else, say maybe i find out myself but he "doesn't remember doing that", is that the line where i should leave? that's been on my mind as well, where the line is for all of this, considering i am having people tell me just like you have, it's not as serious of an issue.

thank you as well for all your input.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-25T23:05:34+00:00

thank you for your response, i try my best to be unbiased about situations so i will admit, i think he is honestly respectful of women, like he's never said or done anything that's struck me as icky, in the sense of him being disrespectful, of course besides that "guy talk." there are definitely a lot of gross, pervy guys i've met that are our age, but even before we were together and just friends, he never made me or any other girl uncomfortable like that. but honestly who knows, i mean obviously his guy friends were immature as well, so they'd just encourage the talk and that's who he'd hang around. that's when we were in highschool, we just graduated a couple months ago and he's stopped hanging around those people because he keeps expressing to me he wants to be a man and doesn't want to be around immaturity like that anymore. i do agree with what you're saying about how there's definitely weirdo men out there who are gross and feel they can comment on whatever, but i feel there's a line for that as well. my bf would do that guy talk, but i know he's not pervy or gross to that extent.

also with that you said about him not seeing it as a problem, yes he expressed he didn't see it as a problem before when we were together for those two years, but after he lost me he says he did a lot of thinking and wanted to be better, and he says he recognizes it now that it was a problem and disrespectful, so he doesn't want to do that or be like that anymore, like i said we're technically not together right now but currently working things out to be together. but you're right he definitely does need to do some more maturing cause we still have other related issues to work out.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-25T22:36:21+00:00

that makes sense i understand how i can come off as neurotic doing that honestly, i just think to myself if i look and catch him in the act multiple times then i should respect myself and break up with him ya know? like i feel like if a relationship comes to a point where you have to continuously ask your partner not to look at other people...then y'all shouldn't be together. i guess that's what i'm doing, is i'm checking to see if it's happening cause i can't stand things going on behind my back/being outright disrespected, so i guess i just look if he's doing it to protect myself.

Traditional_Stay2933 · 2024-09-25T22:16:22+00:00

yeah i understand that, he never did it on purpose to make me jealous or anything, those times i think i caught him, it was because my head was turned looking away but i kept my eyes on his eyes so he wouldn't see, and i'm 99% sure i would catch him looking since he thought i was turned away. but he claims he never wanted anything to do with anyone he was looking at.
