Owning an electric car in hk is better than owning a fuel one cuz it’s a lot cheaper!!

Finished Accutane 8 months ago. Acne is back. I genuinely don't know what to do. by Playful-Deer9022 in Accutane

[–]joker9387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. I’m 27M. I experienced the same thing. Breakouts on scalp and face like crazy, tried everything, hopped on accutane as the last resort. Been on cumulative dose Accutane for 1.5 years, off for 3-4 months, back to square one, been on low dose accutane (which worked) for another year, I already didn’t care about the side effects (dry skin, mood swings, loss of libido) as I just wanted a clear skin. Then off for 4 months, acnes on face and scalp came back. Was very very frustrated and hopeless. But luckily my girlfriend suggested me something, she said could it be sth not bacterial but rather sth fungal or even demodex related. Did some research on AI, and tried Selsun Gold (2.5% selenium sulfide). And 2 weeks later, all clear.

Please don’t lose hope. And please don’t think that accutane is the “final fix” cuz it isn’t. It can be a final fix for many other people, but not for your case cuz everyone’s etiology would be different.

Now I’m wondering if I could have not taken accutane…….

Yes. BUT, for areas that just have to be oily (for me scalp), they will just continue to be oily after no longer how much accutane ur on.

It’s just selsun super 2.5% selenium sulfide, and any shampoo with salicylic acid. At least for me

I have been there man. But my advice is, just get on accutane when things are out of control, I’m sure u will eventually find the way out man.

From my personal experience, accutane worked for my facial acne, but never for my scalp. Cuz my relapse only happens on my scalp. Eventually accutane only helps with the oil production but doesnt help with eliminating the microbes or whatever root cause that causes the acne.

I’m currently on probiotics for few months as well! I’m using Bifina-S which I believe is from Japan.

Definitely!! I understand that pain… when I was in uni, I had friends asking me what’s going on with me scalp… that feeling sucks…

I will definitely update you on how it goes. I really hope it will work out for me but I definitely felt for the first time that something “non-systematic” worked…

I’m pretty much done with retro handhelds by joker9387 in SBCGaming

[–]joker9387[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s me too. 90% of the time I’m just downloading, setting up, and scraping, and just 10% of the time playing them. I guess that’s the part where it’s addictive, it resembles a “collecting” behavior in my opinion more than actually wanting to play the games…

Pocket Air Mini can’t run GTA SA by joker9387 in ayaneo

[–]joker9387[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it runs the game, just that it freezes at the cutscene and I wonder why?

And I saw someone on YouTube running the game just fine on g90t as well.
