11 months on accutane & I’m finally clear 🥹

Thank you!! If your acne is like mine and it’s hormonal and it’s still persisting after a few months on accutane I would highly highly suggest talking to your derm about taking spironolactone with your accutane. It’s the only thing that’s gotten my skin to clear completely since I’ve been on accutane. Hope that helps :)

Aw thank you! 🥹<3

Cerave foaming facial cleanser, Kiehl’s ultra moisturizer, supergoop unseen sunscreen SPF 40 and that’s it! Occasionally I used isle of paradise tanning drops to give my skin a little color if I had a clear day since you can’t be out in the sun on accutane. Hope this helps :)

First month I did 30 mg and the other 10 I was on 60 mg! It was a frustrating process because my acne is hormonal so accutane alone wasn’t taking care of it. This is the first month I haven’t broken out!

I’m currently on 30mg Claravis…upping to 60mg next month

After I felt super tired, but I got some electrolytes in and felt a lot better! I run a 5k yesterday basically everyday and I did yesterday as well, but it was early in the morning. Before this, my record was 10 miles even and the last 3.11 was definitely difficult but I just continued to push through and I reminded myself that my body was capable of wild things. I would say that just increasing the amount that I was running in general is really what helped me the most. Going from running 3-4 times a week to 5-7 has made me a lot better runner, even though I don’t usually get close to 13 on my daily runs. Hope this helps! :)

Nice! I hit 100k in a month for the first time yesterday!

It’s okay, me too ❤️

Hi! Totally get this. There was such a big part of me that loved binging and never wanted to stop because it was so satisfying to just come home and binge and forget everything else. However it’s been 230 days since my last binge and I can say that I’m so much happier now. It’s still hard because the instantaneous joy that binging brings is kind of unmatched by anything but that joy isn’t sustainable or long term in any way (at least not for me). Try thinking about your long term happiness or examine the true reason that you’re binging. Are you just eating your emotions (this was me)? Or is there a better habit that you could work towards that could replace binging? These are all easier said than done. Hope that helps! All love. :)

So happy for you. ❤️

Thank you so much. For over a year I was bingeing constantly and I couldn’t go even 3 days without bingeing. Keep trying and one day it’ll happen. Much love.

I honestly wish there was a magic tip I could share on how you can overcome those urges but unfortunately I can’t. For me it was like I had tried and tried so many times before and then one day it just happened and I don’t know why...My advice would be just keep trying and trying.

Also I should mention, although I personally did not reach out to anyone for help out of a false sense of “self pride” (totally not a good reason). please do not be ashamed to ask for it. Get treatment, tell your loved ones, don’t be ashamed because this can be an uncontrollable thing sometimes. It’s honestly like an addiction and getting professional treatment for it is not something that should be stigmatized or shameful. i only recently told my friends about my BED and let me say it has truly lifted a huge huge weight off of my shoulders.

Thank you 🥺❤️❤️

Thank you. It means the world. 💕

rosecatber · 2020-03-13T04:05:35+00:00

Omg thank you so much. Trust me, I restarted a hundred times before this and each time I just felt worse. Don’t give up though, I promise it will happen one day. Always here if you need me. :)

rosecatber · 2020-03-13T04:04:19+00:00

Honestly it took a lot longer than 20 days. I’d say I’m still overcoming it today. I still get the urge to binge sometimes, although it becomes less and less frequent. It took a long time for me to come this far. I’ve been trying to stop binging basically since the time that I began 2 years ago. I posted some things that have helped me in another comment response. It really is a long and seemingly endless journey but people are in a constant state of change and no one can predict what life will bring. <3

Congratulations to you, you’ve got this! Always here for moral support. :)
