Due to...it's a long story, but I have hormonal acne due to a medical condition I'm getting on going treatment for. They're still trying to balance out my levels. So I've spent a lot of money on products and do various treatments, but still have acne. I set up to see a dermatologist but the pandemic happened. I get really down on myself about my acne.

I realized tonight until my hormone levels are stabilized, there isn't a lot I can actually do. except manage it the best I can. This isn't something I can control or make better right now.

Does anyone have any good ideas on how to self love and feel good about yourself despite having acne?

I feel so imperfect and unattractive because of it. I tell myself I'm a beautiful person inside, I'm doing all the right things, and that I'm not going into a career where my looks will matter. But I'd still like to have better self-esteem about my appearance.
