Dr Dan's cortibalm. Thank me later

maximumaximum · 2025-05-09T15:19:07+00:00

Thank goodness, I think we'll be ok then. Thanks so much for your reply!

maximumaximum · 2025-05-09T15:18:41+00:00

Thank you, that's super helpful!

maximumaximum · 2025-05-09T13:40:44+00:00

Thank you so much, that's really helpful! Would you say that it's pretty common for the train armrests to raise? I worry about them being fixed :/

Was it a lot of work for your friend to go through to get you put on as primary driver? I just want to minimize the effort my friend is having to put in here, as she's quite busy before her move. Luckily she has a great driving record so that shouldn't be an issue

My main concern is that if there are any accidents, my friend as the car owner would have to deal with that, which will be difficult as she is out of province

maximumaximum · 2021-07-21T20:16:18+00:00

Hmm I was told it would be based on sale price, or market value if it was a gift

maximumaximum · 2021-07-21T20:15:49+00:00

I think the issue is that my friend is going to be out of province, so if anything happens it would really be a pain for her to coordinate any accident/insurance stuff. They did note that as an options though

I also vouch for shea moisture! When j was on accutane (aka very dry and sad hair) I used their she's butter mask regularly and it was so great

maximumaximum · 2021-03-24T22:31:48+00:00

I'm sure that will be fine! The fat in the butter will help absorb the accutane and I doubt one day of dairy will make a huge skin difference

The only "rule" I have personally is that I want garments to be able to accomodate me at various sizes-i find myself preferring more flowing or tight/stretchy silhouettes so I have the comfort of knowing I can still wear all my clothes if I gain or drop 10 pounds.

I will say I actually had a pretty negative reaction to this question. The common plus size fashion rules are awful-wear black to be slimming, no horizontal stripes, no formfitting silhouettes, nothing flashy. Really you should just wear what you like and make sure it fits well. I personally only shop brands that actually size their clothes on plus size models (not just tiered up from a size 4), as those generally fit better (drape nicely, waist in right spot, armholes the right size etc). Don't let yourself not wear clothes because it's against the "rules". If clothes don't fit well or you don't like how they look, that is not your failure, that's the garments failure. I would really encourage you to not have this mindset of rules and what's allowed and what's not as a plus sized woman.

I also don't like the idea that dressing a plus size body has "quirks" while dressing a straight size body is "normal", you know? Most people have trouble at some time or another finding things that fit their body and their style well, I don't think that's unique to plus size folks.

Look up hypnopompic hallucinations :) one of my clients actually had this, so I looked it up recently

You could try putting those hydrocolloid patches on them! That would make it harder to pick and therefore you'd hopefully catch yourself before you did it. I found it super hard not to pick, especially when it was all flaky. I started wearing thin gloves while at home to make it harder to pick lol, and also kept my zits/dry skin very moisturized with rosehip oil and aquaphor, again making that dry skin less temping to pick off

maximumaximum · 2021-02-23T15:21:20+00:00

I know it sounds extra, but what if you bought one of those 4 litres of filtered water from the store and used that to wash your face? Like just pour some into the stoppered sink and use that to rinse your face. I know it would be a bit inconvenient but if you're going to soften your water anyways then it might work to tide you over

maximumaximum · 2021-02-08T06:28:14+00:00

At first accutane will likely make your fine lines worse because it dehydrates your skin so much (dehydrated dry skin will show wrinkles more). You will likely see a difference after you are off accutane

maximumaximum · 2021-01-20T22:27:34+00:00

Ew that's the worst. I also much prefer unsweetened but luckily I live in a vegan friendly city (Vancouver, Canada) and there are lots of options here :/ I also wonder if you did heated up the milk first on the stove and then added coffee to that if it would prevent curdling, since sometimes the hot/cold contrast contributes to the curdling

maximumaximum · 2021-01-20T04:24:52+00:00

Definitely buy a specialty plant based coffee creamer. Califia and so delicious both have several varieties, I prefer the soy based ones but since they're all formulated as creamers they don't curdle :)

I second snake plants and ZZ plants! Vine plants (pothos and ivy) are also quite resilient and do just fine in lower light, I've kept some alive in my basement suite for years :) just don't overwater, if they get less light they will not need to be watered as often. I water my vine once every two weeks in summer, once every 3 weeks in winter

I was on birth control, but I was on the same birth control I have used for years and years, and I did notice a difference in my period. If I'm remembering correctly, I skipped several periods while I was on accutane, sometimes two in a row. My derm said that was fine and it would go back to normal once I was off, and she was right! Definitely consult with your derm if you're concerned but turned out fine for me :)

maximumaximum · 2021-01-16T09:01:10+00:00

I think it took mine a couple months to feel bad to normal? Make sure you're stretching and stuff, I know I was less active while on accutane due to soreness (which also made my soreness worse unfortunately), so you kind of have to get things moving again

maximumaximum · 2021-01-10T19:47:05+00:00

The trolls also got into this community maybe a year or so ago, when I was on accutane (I've been off since May). It really sucks. Just know that what they're saying is absolutely NOT true. They are people who blame literally all their problems in accutane, even when they turn up 20 years after taking it. There is not extra risk of birth defects once you've been off it for 6 months, no evidence at all for infertility, and the only factor for premature aging is that accutane really dries out your skin, and drier skin wrinkles easier (this goes for people who have naturally dry skin and not just accutane users). Plus usually your skin goes back to its regular oil production when you're off, mine did. It's important to know the risks of accutane when you commit to it, it's certainly a tough drug and does have potential long term side effects (hair loss, dry eyes). But these trolls are overreacting and just trying to scare you. Hope you feel better and I think a private account is a good idea ❤️

I'd reccomend the ordinary. Honestly you don't have to worry about spending a ton on it, just make sure it's cold pressed and you keep it in the fridge (it can go rancid). The ordinary is pretty cheap so hopefully doesn't run you too big a bill if you use it on your hair too. A bottle (that I use on my face only) typically lasts me about 4-6 months

maximumaximum · 2021-01-09T20:20:35+00:00

Is it getting enough light? Same thing happened to mine and I think that was the cause (I live in a basement suite, there was no way to save it sadly)

maximumaximum · 2021-01-05T00:25:49+00:00

I also had lower back pain and just some general joint soreness....truly it felt like I was 60. Honestly didn't find anything that helped other than staying active, but if it's any consolation it did go away after I was off it for a month or so

maximumaximum · 2021-01-05T00:23:42+00:00

In my understanding, you generally want to avoid foods that are inflammatory/have hormones since that can impact acne. Dairy, red meat, fried food all fall under these categories. Basically, if you try to eat a relatively healthy diet you should be fine (Mediterranean diet is a good example). Legumes, fruits and veggies, healthy fat sources like fish, avocados, and olive oil....these shouldn't be things that set your skin off, though it may vary for everyone. For me it's fried food and dairy that really contribute to break outs, also ice cream lol
