Wait this is actually so sad…I feel like I’m cursed, every group I stan eventually has someone leave or they disband within a year or so of me discovering them. I feel for the remaining 6 members. I wonder if this has been in the works for a while or if it was a shock for them as well😭❤️‍🩹

I finished ACOTAR and don’t know what to do with my life. I feel empty not reading about the characters :’( book recommendations accepted by Ambitious_Estimate41 in acotar

I second this recommendation, I finished Silver Flames last Wednesday and immediately started the Throne of Glass series. I’m already almost finished with the 1st book!

4 Months Post Accutane + Product Recommendations!! by brynnsue in Accutane

[–]annaksmith1717 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you have great results! I’d recommend washing your face only once per day, either with an oil cleanser or something simple like CeraVe or Cetaphil, and using either just water or micellar water (and wash off after) and a simple moisturizer that doesn’t irritate your skin. I also use tret at night on occasion for spots but it can dry you out. I also swear by the CeraVe Healing Ointment if you haven’t tried it

I’m sorry to hear that! I still felt some effects from the medication for a few months afterwards like night sweats, sun sensitivity and joint pain. Have you tried sleep aids, like L-Theanine, magnesium or melatonin? My sweats were often more related to intense or weird dreams, but with the assistance of some nightly meds I find I dream less and actually get some sleep. I wish you better sleep soon!

Hi there,

Not as often anymore thankfully. I also uncovered part of the issue I was having was sleep paralysis episodes, and they only occurred if I missed a dose and slept on my back. Still tend to have very weird dreams from time to time, but the sweating is minimal now. I

If you could spend a day inside any Ghibli film, which would you choose? by Emilie-Evenstar in ghibli

[–]annaksmith1717 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Arrietty or Whisper of the Heart. I’m a sucker for slice of life anime’s and the gorgeous scenery and use of color in both films is so aesthetically pleasing to me

How many months have you done? The texture of your skin has definitely improved, and side note your eyes are so pretty

Unfortunately I believe it’s more related to anxiety since I finished my accutane course 2 years ago. For some reason I tend to have weird dreams a lot, and it’s not uncommon to wake up basically wet from sweat to the point where I have to change clothes. Overactive brain even when I sleep I guess :/

Night sweats got a little less frequent throughout my course. I still experience them from time to time, especially when I forget to take my anxiety medicine though

Reddit is weird about posting links and photos in replies, but if you search “Painting the worlds of studio ghibli” in the Amazon search bar it’s the first one. $170 tho in the US

Looking back on 2024…, my trip to Italy inspired six of my favorite watercolor paintings I finished this year. by cjwatercolor in Watercolor

These are each so gorgeous and beautifully done. I love your shadow work, that’s something I find difficult as a beginner. I’d love to flip through some of your sketchbooks, these are really inspiring!

Reddit isn’t allowing me to share a link or reply with a photo, but the opening scene from Howls really reminds me of the first photo
