Feelin Good

Hey-o, I'm back again.

I'm happy to report that I've found a job!! It's not much (15 hours a week, $9.50/hr) but it's a start. And now I'll be able to at least pay my bills while looking for my "big-kid" job. We'll see where this leads me.

Skin-wise, I'm still doing pretty good again, and I'm very happy about it. Don't really have too much to say about it other than that. A lot of my stress was lifted by finding some sort of income, and this is definitely reflected in my skin. I guess I never really paid enough attention to what was going on in my life during really bad skin periods to notice how much of an affect my mental health has on the condition of my skin and how much I pick. I know that I bottle up a lot of my emotions as well, and that probably wasn't helping matters either.

Blogging has been a big help, especially in conjunction with my line-writing, which I'm still doing. It just makes me feel better, like it's something that I can actually do to help my skin, rather than just having to sit and wait for the natural healing to take place.

Stay strong, fellow pickers! We CAN beat this!!!
