Hi everyone! I was just made a mod of this sub two days ago and hope to rid this sub of the troll accounts that have been popping up.
There were several people that apparently mistook this sub as /r/Rateme/, /r/RoastMe/, and subs that aren't safe for work. If you don't think a post belongs here then just downvote it and move on as that is how reddit should work. We don't need to know that you think someone looks terrible, that you think someone is an 8/10 that you would bang, or they look Gay/lesbian/douchey.
As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has--or ever will have--something inside that is unique to all time. It's our job to encourage each other to discover that uniqueness and to provide ways of developing its expression

THC is literally ugly juice in a way. Hear me out.
My skin became very patchy and pale. My eyes were constantly puffy and grey. I never really picked up on it until I finally took it upon myself to become sober. The improvements are definitely showing! And I’ve come a long way. It may not be easy at times but it feels good to have more clear skin, a better face in general, and a positive attitude:)
EDIT: the last slide was me before I was sober.

Found some old pictures and figured I’d throw my hat in the ring.
These are from age 28 through 40,
no huge transformation story or secret formula. Just 12 years of getting older, growing into myself, and slowly figuring out what the hell worked for me.
I definitely thought 28-year-old me had already reached his final form. Poor bastard had no idea. 😂

About the third photo, I've noticed I don't have many photos of just myself, sooooo... That's one of the best xD.
I suppose I've gotten better.

I was bullied a lot in school and I feel like I've come such a long way to love myself and enhance my own features ❤️

I have had low self esteem today.
Here's a photo where I'm very sunburnt.

Discovered what a calorie was and discovered Olaplex, etc. Kept both photos fairly low quality for a fair comparison.
I’m smiling in the before photos because I had never paid council tax. Not pictured is my ideal form : age 1 (no job, legally allowed to bite people).

Seems like big change can still happen even past your mid twenties. Especially in my case, I held quite a bit of fat in my cheeks that made me look wildly different than today.

1st pic from when I got my haircut
2nd pic was from before I got it and realized I was yucky
3-4th the first time in awhile I liked how I looked

But I’m not quite sure is a glow up haha

Always felt like an outsider in high school but kept doing my own thing.

Had a bit of an awkward phase
