Every single morning I have flashbacks of the morning I woke to find my husband had died in his sleep. I can remember every second of that day but can’t remember the name of a person I just spent an hour talking to. For me it has been therapy and a flexible work arrangement combined that get me through the day. There are days I can’t get going until 11 am, but then I’ll work as late as I need to in order to get the work done. Medication takes a bit of the edge off, but just the edge and some make you more sleepy and therefore just make it worse, so be sure to discuss with your doctor.

I desperately need advice on how to correct hyperpigmentation on my face. I have combination skin leading more towards the oily side and sensitive, acne prone skin.

I’m looking for more than covering with makeup.
