[Misc] As 2018 comes to a close, I want to share about the effect my life had on my skin

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I know we often talk about the negative effect acne has on our mental health (which is absolutely true), but I want to talk today about the effect our personal lives have on our skin health.At the beginning of 2018, I was entering into the second year of a terrible relationship. My partner was angry, controlling, and hurtful and would say things frequently like “no one will ever really love you” and put me down by calling my stupid, annoying, worthless, etc. etc. I felt pretty worthless and my skin looked terrible. I had cystic bumps everywhere and while my skin has never looked amazing, it was getting particularly bad. I really thought that I was too ugly for anyone else to love and that I needed my skin to clear up before I could leave my awful relationship.A few months later, I cracked under the weight of this living hell and I left my partner. While my skin didn’t clear up over night, I slowly started having the energy to take better care of myself, stop picking at my skin (because I felt less anxious), and finally hauled myself into seeing a dermatologist. Now that 2018 is almost over, I’ve never had clearer skin as an adult. I’m feeling happier in my personal life (with a new partner that loves me regardless of what my skin looks like) and I feel very happy about my smooth skin.I hope that anyone else out there going through something similar believes me when I say: You are enough right now. You deserve love and good self care now. May your 2019 be happy and positive for you. Please take care of yourself.
