Any last minute tips to calm for my wedding in 3 days ? Sheet mask, cream, etc?

Not sure why I’m flaring, possible my period. I use prescription Azaic acid and OTC ivermectin. Having my period on my wedding sucks enough, but my face is flaring. This doesn’t look bad but it’s after I gently drained my papules and washed with sulfur soap. They will most likely fill back up and multiply by the end of today.
Are there any little hacks or products that seem to calm your skin down pretty quickly?

I tapered down from 10mg to 5mg. I ended up stopping cold turkey since I had a renewal appt coming up to continue receiving it and I lost my insurance and didnt want the charge that I couldn’t pay.

Aside from that, the side effects. Weight gain. Libido dysfunction. The worst was the general lack of motivation in life. I didn’t feel fully “me”. Due to all of this I stopped it. This was 4 months ago.

I would like to try ERP as an alternative to medication but cannot afford therapy right now.

My OCD is moderate and impacts me daily. My partner is not sure how to help. My OCD makes me feel that I don’t deserve his help anyways. I don’t enjoy life as much due to the anxiety. I swapped happiness but lack of motivation stopping me in life, to OCD stopping me and robbing my happiness.

I decided to make an appt and just take the charge to my credit. I want to discuss other options but it seems all SSRIs have the same side effects.

I’m wondering if anyone has switched from Escitalopram to something else that did not have these side effects, particularly the lack of motivation.
