I spent my entire twenties hiding.

I spent my entire twenties hiding. cystic acne so bad I'd cancel plans, turn down dates, leave my camera off, talk to no one. I became an introvert because my skin made the choice for me. and the money. tens of thousands of dollars over the years, every serum, every "miracle" cream, every dermatologist who shrugged and handed me another prescription that did nothing. I have a graveyard of half-used bottles that cost more than my car. then some random girl on tiktok mentioned GHK-Cu. I added BPC too and I honestly can't tell you which one did it. four months later my skin is clear for the first time since I was 15 and I cried the first time I left the house without makeup. a stranger on Tiktok I'll never meet fixed what a decade of doctors and a fortune in product couldn't. I don't even know her name.
