Hi all! I’m 29 and I’ve been struggling with hormonal acne for almost 2 years now. I’ve tried just about everything and nothing seems to make my acne disappear. It’s so frustrating because I’m on top of my skincare and washing my face but it doesn’t help. It makes me want to cry because I used to have perfectly clear skin from my early-mid 20s up until i turned 28. I haven’t had skin this bad since I was in my teenage years. My birth control pill was helping with my acne, but it doesn’t seem to help anymore either.

Currently, I use cetaphil cleanser, then Nivea toner (the green one for oily skin), then niacinamide serum. Once that’s absorbed, I’ll put on some BellamiLuxx cystic acne lotion, and some moisturizer for oily skin after that’s been absorbed. I’ve reached out about getting put on Accutane today. Does anyone have some suggestions or even just some kind words for this sad and self conscious girl? 😭 also, yes my lips are very dry atm lol

Hello!

I'm a dual citizen who's currently based in Canada. I've been trying to get into my province's radiology programs for years now, but I keep getting waitlisted because I don't meet their entrance test requirements or didn't score high enough. I have a bachelor's in an unrelated field (criminal justice), but I've upgraded most of my high school courses.

I'm getting tired of waiting as I'm not getting any younger (will be turning 30 this year). Should I just try to apply for rad tech programs in the US? I've reached out to a few in different states and it sounds like I could be considered due to being a citizen but I also didn't do the greatest in my previous college courses. I obviously passed, but I'm a straight Cs get degrees type of student lol

Since I did all of my high school and college here in Canada, I'm unfamiliar with how US college application requirements work. I already know that I'd have to get my transcripts evaluated, which is fine, but I'm just curious to know if it's even worth it to apply somewhere in the US as I've seen some places have like 2-3 year waitlists.

Hormonal acne makes me just want to cry
