UChristina Yannello unokukhumbula ugqabhuko lwakhe lokuqala ngokucacileyo njengoko abantu abaninzi bekhumbula ukwanga kwabo kokuqala okanye ixesha. Xa wayeneminyaka eli-12 ubudala, ngequbuliso waba neqhakuva phakathi kwamashiya, yaye inkwenkwe ekwibanga lesihlanu yambuza ngokuphandle ukuba yintoni na esebusweni bakhe.

UYannello uthi: “Lowo yayingumzuzu obalulekileyo kum. "Ngelo xesha, ndandingazi nokuba yintoni ebusweni bam okanye ndiyinyamekele njani."

Kwaye kwakusisiqalo nje eso. Kule minyaka ilishumi izayo, i-acne yakhe yaphuma yaza yahamba ingalawuleki kwaphela ukuba icace kwaye ilawulwe kwaye ibuye kwakhona. Njengephakathi, oogqirha besikhumba bamfaka kunyango lweekhemikhali ezahlukeneyo kunye namayeza okubulala iintsholongwane ngaphandle kwethamsanqa ekuphatheni ulusu lwakhe olunesiphako. Ukuthintela inzala ngomlomo kwenza ukuba amabala akhe okufikisa aphele iminyaka embalwa, emva koko abuye kancinci ngonyaka wakhe wokugqibela ekholejini. Wahlala elunyango kunyango kunye nezithambiso, wathabatha i-antibiotics, watshintshela kwi-IUD, kwaye ekugqibeleni wayitshintsha ngepilisi yolawulo lokuzalwa eyahlukileyo. Akukho nanye kuwo eyenza umahluko.

"Ulusu lwam luye lwaba lungenakulawuleka ngokupheleleyo - ndandingasenalo ulawulo," utsho uYannello. Ngaphandle kokuthetha, oku kuye kwandithwalisa umthwalo omkhulu ngokwasengqondweni nangokweemvakalelo. Ndandineentloni kangangokuba ndandingasakwazi ukuphuma okanye ndibe phambi kwabantu endihlala nabo ngaphandle kwezithambiso.”

Sekunjalo, wayethandabuza ukuya kwi-Accutane, iyeza elisetyenziselwa ukuqina, i-cystic acne engazange iphendule kolunye unyango, kwaye wayefuna ukwenza ukugrumba kwiyeza likagqirha ngaphambi kokuba linikezele. Kuphando lwe-Intanethi, u-Yannello uvule i-acne-positivity subculture efihliweyo kwimidiya yoluntu enokuthi itshintshe indlela aphethe ngayo kwaye acinge nangokuphuma kwakhe.

Ngaphezulu kwe-130,000 yezithuba kubandakanya #acnepositivity hashtag kwi-Instagram, kwaye ukuthandwa kuyinyani. Awuyi kubona ulusu olunomoya, iileya ezishinyeneyo zesiseko esisithekileyo, kunye namagama-ncazo abonisa ubomi obonwabisayo, obungenaxinzelelo, kodwa endaweni yoko abantu abanxibe ubuso ngobuso babonisa ngokuzithemba ukugqabhuka kwabo kosuku, bebelana ngezinto abazithandayo zokhathalelo lwesikhumba, kunye neenkcukacha. amabali asuka entliziyweni ovavanyo lwezonyango, uguquko, kunye namava aneentloni zolusu. Kuyadinisa ukubona umfanekiso omnye, ubuso obufanayo, ulusu olufanayo olucacileyo kaninzi-ndiyazi ukuba oko kube nefuthe elibi kwimpilo yam engqondweni nasengqondweni, utshilo uYannello. "Kodwa obu bunyani nobunyani yinto nje ongayiboni yonke imihla."

Umdibaniso wolusu wokudibana noluntu kunye nokuba sesichengeni akuphefumlelanga uYannello ukuba azame iAccutane kwaye asungule eyakhe iakhawunti, @barefacedfemme, kodwa ikwamncedile ukuba atshintshe asuke ekubeni kukungazithembi kwamabala, ukuzithoba kuye umntu ozithembileyo kwaye onwabile nolusu lwakhe , uthi. "Ukubona abanye abantu bengena [kwiingxaki zolusu] kwaye behambelana nayo kuyitshintshile indlela endicinga ngayo-ibuye yabhala ingxelo entlokweni yam, utshilo. "Aba bantu bandincedile, ke bendifuna ukunceda omnye umntu."

Elinye ilizwi kwintshukumo yamabala amabala nguConstanza Concha, oqhuba @skinnoshame kwaye umnika abalandeli abamalunga nama-50 000 ukujongwa okuluhlaza ebomini bakhe ejongana ne-nodulocystic acne (amabala anzulu eluswini kwaye anokubangela ii-cysts ezinzima, ezibuhlungu). Uthumo olungemva kwesithuba ngasinye lulula: ukuba ngummeli angazange abe nawo ebuntwaneni bakhe. UConcha uthi: "Ndifuna ukuba yile nto bendifuna ukuba nayo. Andifuni omnye umntu aphume nesithukuthezi kwaye azive kakubi ngathi njengoko ndenzile. Ukuba umelwe, ukuba unomnye umntu otyhubela kwimizabalazo efana neyakho kwaye enesikhumba esifana nesakho, ndicinga ukuba indlela ocinga ngayo iyakutshintsha kwaye uzokuhlala kamnandi nawe. ”

Kwaye kwenzeka kanye ngoVanessa Sasada. Waqala ukuqaphela ngakumbi ii-akhawunti ezigxile kwi-acne, eziqinisekisa ulusu kumajelo eendaba ezentlalo kwaye waqonda uninzi lwazo ziqhutywa ngabantu abanolusu olufana nolwakhe. Ke, phakathi kuqhawulo olubi kakhulu, waqokelela isibindi sokuqala iakhawunti yakhe, @tomatofacebeauty. “Ndacinga ukuba ndingathi ndiqale ukuthumela ubuso obungenanto ndize ndibonise ukuba lolusu lwam lokwenyani lunjani, nam ndiza kuqala ukuzithemba ngakumbi kwaye ndiwamkele amabala am,” utshilo uSasada. "Bendifuna ukuqalisa ukwanga ulusu lwam nokuba lukweyiphi na imeko."

Kwisithuba nje seenyanga ezintathu zokuthumela amanxeba amabala, ulusu oluxinezelekileyo, kunye nokubonakala kwe-makeup, uSasada uthi ukuzithemba kwakhe kuphakamile. “Phambi kokuba ndiqalise iakhawunti yam, into yokuqala endayenzayo xa ndivuka kukuhlala phambi kwesipili sam, ndihlalutye ulusu lwam, ndijonge ukuba akukho nakuphi na ukugqabhuka okutsha xa ndilele,” utsho. “Amaxesha amaninzi bekuya kubakho, kwaye bekuya konakalisa usuku lwam lonke. Ngoku, ukuba ndifumana ibhokhwe elitsha, ayisiyonto inkulu. Andisakhathali ngolusu lwam okanye ndijonge esipilini kangangeeyure ndizama ukukhangela okuthile.”

Kwaye ukungabinalo uxinzelelo ukuthatha indawo yokuqhekeka kunye neziphako kunokunceda ekuphuculeni imiba yolusu, utshilo uMat Traube, MFT, ugqirha wezengqondo ogxile kwimicimbi yezengqondo yeemeko zesikhumba. "Siyazi kwinqanaba elithile ukuba uxinzelelo lunokuba nefuthe elibi kumabala," ucacisa. "Ke ukuba unexhala malunga ne-acne, ke yonke le nto i-acne positivity inciphisa ihlazo kunye neentloni malunga nayo, ngokukhawuleza xa uphuma kwihlabathi okanye ubonisa ubuso bakho ebantwini, ufumana uxinzelelo oluncinci. Kwaye ndicinga ukuba inokuba nefuthe kumabala ngokwawo. "

Ngaphezu koko, xa ephuma, uSasada akaziva enyanzelekile ukuba aqabe i-makeup egcweleyo ngamaxesha onke njengoko wayeqhele ukwenza. "Bebengazi ukuba induna yam iqine kangakanani kuba bendikwazi ukuyifihla ixesha elide, kwaye bendihlala ndiziva ngathi ndiphila ngokuxoka," uyachaza. "Phambi kokuba ndibhale ifoto yam yokuqala, andizange ndibonise ubuso obungenanto, kodwa ngoku ayothusi, kwaye ndiziva ndikhululeke ngakumbi ukubonisa induna yam kulo lonke uzuko lwayo."

Eso senzo sokwamkela ngentliziyo epheleleyo ukuba ungubani njengomntu one-acne-nokuba uziva usengozini okanye usoyika ngokuzibeka phaya-kunokuba uzive uneentloni, ukogquma ukuphuma kwakho, okanye ukunqanda ukubona abanye ngokupheleleyo, linyathelo elibalulekileyo ngayo, utshilo uTraube. "Uwenza amava oluntu ngendlela engenampembelelo kuwe kuphela, umntu oyenzayo, kodwa nangokuyenza kwiqonga elinje ngemidiya yoluntu (okanye uphume esidlangalaleni ngendlela apho ungumnini khona It), emva koko unefuthe elihle kwabanye abantu abaphethwe yile ndlela ngendlela yabo, utshilo.

Ngelixa ingxelo ayisoloko intle-uConcha ufumene isabelo sakhe esifanelekileyo se-DMs enezigxeko ezingqwabalala kunye neengcebiso zonyango ezingamkelekanga- amaxesha amaninzi kunokuba kunjalo, ukuba semngciphekweni wokuthumela iifoto eziluhlaza, ezingacwangciswanga zezitshi kunye nolunye ulusu olubi. Amacandelo ezimvo kwiiakhawunti ezininzi ze-acne positivity azaliswe yimiyalezo yombulelo evela kubalandeli abaziva beqinisekisiwe, bebonwa kwaye bamkelwe.

"Ndicinga ukuba abantu abaninzi babelana ngohambo lwabo, kwenza amaqhakuva angabi yinto ekuhlaleni," utshilo uYannello. “Akunyanzelekanga ukuba uzive unganqabisekanga malunga nokuphuma kunye neqhakuva, kwaye akufuneki uzive ngathi kubalulekile ukuyigubungela. Ndicinga ukuba kubaluleke kakhulu kubafazi abancinci abakhulayo ukuba baqonde loo acne ayikho into embi.”
