Hi, just joined

Hello everyone, I go by GlowGetter, and I wanted to actually say hello instead of just reading along. I have been dealing with this for a long while, and what brought me here was less about finding the right product and more about learning how to keep my mind from spinning every time a new patch shows up.

I work freelance, so my weeks go from way too busy to way too quiet, and strangely the quiet weeks seem harder on my skin than the busy ones. On weekends I get out hiking when I can, and lately I have also been clearing out closets ahead of a move, wich stirs things up in its own way too.

Lately I have just been sitting down with a notebook after hikes and writing out whatever is bothering me instead of letting it loop in my head, and it has not fixed anything, but it does take the edge off some days. Glad to be here among folks who get it without needing it explained.

    quiet weeks hitting harder than busy ones tracks for me too, my shifts flip day to night and the off-rhythm weeks are always when my skin flares, not the packed ones. took about 4 months to notice that pattern
