Accutane & Exercise
Any sports lovers out there? Me too. I love running, yoga and strength training. Unfortunately, I feel like Accutane has made it more difficult for me to get on the trail and mat.
I’m usually quite energetic and ready for an adventure and a challenge. Accutane has made me lethargic. I don’t have the same energy for jumping out of bed and exercising first thing in the morning. Throughout the day I feel exhausted for seemingly no reason.
Not to mention the physical aspects. It takes way longer for my muscles to recover. I feel like my quality of sleep has taken a toll too, which obviously affects my muscles and energy levels. Exercising itself feels more like a drag than a drug - which it used to be for me. I have to force myself to move, when it used to come to me naturally.
Of course it’s easy to blame all of this on a drug. But it seems to be true in my case; even my family and friends have noticed this. I’m already prone to depression and I feel like Accutane is making it worse. I can’t wait to get off this drug. I don’t even care if it cures my acne at this point lmao. I just want to get off all drugs.
