Thoughts from Home

Thanks goodness we’re not going to seek professional help in adult acne treatment for Ace. What I wanted for him is to undergo certain treatment that will minimize the pores and eliminate the scars caused by adolescent and/or hormonal acne. That pimple prone and scarred face has caused him a lot of trauma that resulted to low self-esteem. During the first year of our relationship, it was really tough dealing with it. Glad he gained his confidence after some time as I become his personal “dermatologist”. It should have been treated when the problem started. Oh well, maybe it was but treatment isn’t continuous so the problem recurred. Anyway, what I want him to overcome is his aloofness in derma clinics and the facial care section in the malls or shops. Wish he will gain total confidence soon.

…once again! I loathe this moment when I should be in deep slumber but I can’t even doze off. This happens every night and this is not something that I wanted. I have arranged my work schedule with my colleagues so I could go to bed at 2AM but everything failed. The moment that I logged off from work, my neurons are still active. No matter how hard I try, I end up tossing in bed thus disturbing Ace’ sleep so I have no choice but to get up, turn the PC on and find something to do. I’d better be productive until my neurons will finally feel the need to rest.

I know lack of sleep would result to many health issues including skin problems such as adult acne. Though I try to compensate the issue by taking the much needed rest during the day, I think it isn’t enough. Rest during the night is a lot different during the day even if I try to simulate night time by closing all windows and trying to prevent light from entering the room through the windows, turning on the a/c and wearing a sleeping mask (so I cannot see even a single streak of light), I don’t feel well rested after 4 to 5 hours of sleep. Insomnia indeed is driving me nuts!

Having acne is no joke! It can rip you off your confidence and self esteem. Acne treatments and/or body acne treatment are expensive at least for me so it’s always best to resort to natural remedies such as the following:

I’d take note of these to prevent acne from developing in my face or anywhere in my body.

Need to get some sleep because Ace wanted to go jogging at People’s Park tomorrow. I really wanted to join him but I have second thoughts because I am not feeling 100% ok. Feels like I have PMS (pre-menstrual syndrome) early tonight and I don’t know if I’d be able to wake up early without abdominal cramps. Oh well, I hope my visitor won’t really arrive and what I am feeling is just a simple abdominal cramp or something.LOL. Anyway, have to go. Need to finish some tasks before hitting the bed.

I mentioned about practicing delayed gratification as one of the key in successful weight loss attempt because we cannot only rely on weight loss pills to do the magic. I believe losing weight can be attained by taking weight loss pill or supplement coupled with self-discipline (that is, dieting and exercise) as taking a pill would be futile if we keep on satisfying our cravings for unhealthy foods (for the reason that we have all the money to buy those foods that we crave for). Unhealthy foods are the ones causing us to grow big with all the unwanted fats for even if we eat a lot if our diet consists mostly of fibers and other healthy foods, no bulges for sure. Also, take time to exercise…that’s my two cents worth. Good luck to all of us who are trying to shed extra pounds!
