The libido part is so true! I stopped taking birth control because I didn't want to have sex with my boyfriend anymore. People don't realize how important is that part for a healthy relationship and how many consequences could derive from the abscence of physical interaction. I felt that something was missing in my relationship and when I chose to stop taking the pill, I started to be sexually attracted to my boyfriend again and it felt so right and beautiful to me!
It's really not that important lol, people just overinflate its importance because there's monetary gain through people being intimate.
@@princessmoo4891how so? It’s a natural human instinct so ofc it’s important
@@princessmoo4891this is very untrue. It may be true for you but physical intimacy is a very large part of a well-balanced, fulfilling and happy relationship.
This was one of the most honest and helpful videos (if not the most that I’ve found) about being off birth control. Thank you so much…truly. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
We appreciate your honesty! I just got off of birth control and am working to lose the weight I gained. So helpful knowing others can relate!
Of course!! So grateful that this video can bring more education and awareness to support others in their health journey. Your words speak volumes! 🥹🫶🏼🤍
How long you in shape after stop BC
Thank you for making this Vivian! 💛 My story is similar to yours, I quit a year ago and I'm never going back on it. My biggest concern was my mental health which has improved SO MUCH, I honestly haven't felt this happy. I was on birth control since I got my first period and I would consistently get depressive episodes that would last months but this past year is the longest I've live without depression in 11-12 years
Best decision I've ever made
I’m just over a year off birth control and my experience while detoxing is EXACTLY like yours. Libido, acne on cheeks, mental health, weight loss. Thank you for sharing your experience!! ❤
Your story is inspiring!! So grateful that you’re doing well 🥹🤍
I'm getting my Nexplanon removed today. Thank you so much for your videos! they've helped comfort my anxiety about it a lot! Your personality, considerate tone, and calm nature make you so likeable. I'm now a subscriber (:
YES! Please make a video about how you're using the Fertility Awareness Method or Natural Cycles method! I think it would be empowering for more women to know about their bodies and cycles and use these non-hormonal contraceptives to avoid pregnancy and even those trying to conceive as well.
I appreciate your honesty Viv!
tysm for your kind words!! It truly speaks volumes. 🥹🫶🏼✨
Omg my acne purge was AWFUL 😢 but now that I’m over that hump, I’m so glad to be off birth control
How long did it last? I’ve been off bc for about 7 months now and the acne is horrible
I've been on birth control for over 10 years, and I've been thinking of going off of it. This video popped up in my subs and I wanted to say thank you for the advice and sharing you're experience xo
tysm for vulnerably sharing and being so kind! Hoping that this video is bringing you some ease in awareness about birth control and it’s impact on health. 🫶🏼🤍☁️
This is so accurate! Honestly, I came off of BC because of you. It didn’t really click for me until I heard you’ve mentioned how depressed you were. I started tracking my habits. I was always tired, bloated, never wanted to exercise and I’ve put on weight. After coming off of BC for 6 months, I felt free. I am on the same page as you. I’ll never ever go back. I’m more active than ever.
Thank you for sharing your journey. I appreciate you sharing this private personal part of your life.
Did you lose weight ?
@@xp788 Yes I did. But I also workout 5 days a week. Before, didn’t matter how much I workout, I was not able to get toned. After I got off BC, I can finally see results.
Thank you for the honesty! This information is really helpful! ☺️
ty for your affirmations and support! Hoping that this video brings you insight about birth control. 😌🫶🏼
I love how you make videos like this which is so informative and helpful to all our ladies out there. I’m planning to get an arm implant and this gave me insights about the possible experience I could have. Thanks, Viv! :-)
Of course! So grateful that this video has been helpful in informing you about BC. Hoping the best for your new healthy journey! 🥹🫶🏼🤍
Thank you so much for making this video
I’ve been on birth control for 5ish years and I’m thinking of going off it. Everything you described being on it is me. My libido is almost 0, I’ve gained so much weight, I have zero motivation, I’m sleeping more, etc… My fiancé and I do not want kids, and he’s been waiting to get ✂️, and after 11 months he finally has his consultation next month 🥳 once his procedure is done, I’m going off it for good and I’m planning to use the natural cycles app just in case, since vasectomies also aren’t 100%. But it’s so nice hearing I’m not alone in this journey and while I know this is your story and experience, I’ve heard so many other women say the same and I’m hoping it’s true for me too. Thank you for sharing ❤
Just got off the pill 4 months ago and had all the side effects you had while on it. Even though all my symptoms aren't gone I feel so so much better already.
That’s amazing!! So grateful that your health has improved and that the lifestyle you have is attracting so much abundance. ty for sharing and being so strong and vulnerable! ✨🫶🏼🤍
Thank you for making this video and sharing your experience!!!
ty!! Your support brings so much goodness and light. Your heart is appreciated immensely. 🤍✨🫶🏼
Thank you for sharing your experience! I started BC pills when I was around 16 or 17 for about 4 or 5 years. I never felt quite right on BC, and always felt a slight bit nauseous in the later years. Getting off BC was what I needed, and I felt so much more in tune with my body!
tysm for sharing your truth! So grateful that you feel healthier now without it. 🥹✨🫶🏼
Thanks for the video! Also good talking about libido! We need to talk more about it. ❤
Please make a more in depth video on alternatives. Esp the natural cycle. That’s so interesting!
I was on BC for 5 years, it was the only time in my life where I didn’t feel like myself! Never again
Wow thanks for being so honest and even blunt about the effects of Birth Control! The irony of recovering your sex drive after stopping is so opposite of one of the reasons of taking it in the first place. I guess we go back to living dangerously 🙂But I think the bottom line is managing your period and you're sooo lucky that it became regular! Oh one subject to touch upon if you want to is day to day safety. You're a beautiful woman and even getting gas or going to get groceries can get you into unwanted encounters. How do you deal with it to live a happy life? I'm not all that and I still have run ins...from annoying to terrifying. Anyway thank you for the variety of content hon, Love! :-))))))
Thank you so much for sharing. I have been on the pill for 11 years and got off two weeks ago. I have struggled with the same things while on the pill and im praying to see some changes.
Thank you for making this video!! This was definitely eye-opening and comforting at the same time for me since I'm also dealing with some things while being on birth control. I truly appreciate your honesty on your overall experience and sharing your opinions on birth control.
Your words that you share are so bold and compassionate! tysm for your kindness and love!! Hoping that your journey is bringing you more ease in your experience taking birth control. 🤍🫶🏼🥹
Last pill today!! Thanks for the information!
This is the sign I needed. I’ve been on birth control for about six or seven years and I’m ready to get off of it. I’ve had so many health issues the past two years and I’ve seen so many doctors. If anyone’s wanting to get off of birth control I highly recommend a naturopathic doctor. So far my experience has been amazing and she’s been able to supply me with the correct supplements that I need and to prepare my body to get off of birth control. I am super excited. Also did you just cut the birth control out cold turkey or did you wean off of it?
But with the IUD and nexplanon how do you ween yourself off it ?
Hearing your experience is really so helpful. I'm out of birth control since December, I'm feeling a lot better on everything a part the skin. My skin is really really bad right now and I don't know what to do, I don't want to take the pill again, but I feel like all the Doctors keep pushing me to do so.
Thank you Vivian 🤍🤍🤍
tysm love!! Your support means everything. 🤍🥹🫶🏼
Yepp went off it a month ago after being on it for 7 years… trying to conceive our first baby and my cycles are going to be just as irregular as they were before but I don’t want to go back on it in the future! Feel so much better regardless of Aunt Flo being late/not appearing just yet. It’s a blanket drug for hiding underlying issues in women.
And yesss! Libido came back for me I was thinking the same thing with feeling asexual?? And going to the doctor asking why it’s so uncomfortable for me because of how dry I was and now I’ve done a backflip since going off 😂
Can you do a video on your experience with natural cycles? Thank you so much for sharing your experience.
Thank you for this video, it was so informative. Please talk about Natural Cycles!! I just got it, going to start using it in a few weeks.
Thank you for this video❤
tysm! Truly, your love is appreciated immensely. 🤍🫶🏼✨
My mom is a medical underwriter, she's done that for a living for my entire life, and when she saw me becoming weirdly emotional/depressed (not normal for my personality) she told me flat out to get off the birth control because as an underwriter she sees patterns between the meds people take and the issues they end up complaining of... women on birth control she frequently saw them become depressed or complaining about it. And of course the doctor would say that's not from the pill... but I took her advice and low and behold, depression magically went away slowly, after a few months it was gone. I'm not interested in ever taking the pill again. All set. Great video. Also wanted to mention they have fertility watches now too for another option. Which is pretty cool
Thank you so much for sharing you experience❤️ I’ve been off birth control for almost a year and it’s the best decision I’ve made for my body in a LONG time, I genuinely feel like a completely different person in the best way possible. This video came at the perfect time for me because my boyfriend and I are getting a bit more serious and will probably 👀 soon and I’m very nervous because the ONE TIME I had sex after getting off birth control I had a serious pregnancy scare, so I’ve started thinking about possibly going back on it again because neither of us are ready for a kid together (he has a son from a previous relationship). I’d love to hear your experience so far on natural cycles because I’ve also been thinking about starting that the last few days, but want to hear more about peoples experience using it first
Can you do an update on Natural Cycles? 🙏🏼this video was helpful! ❤
Thank you for sharing this, it has motivated me to stick to my goal to stop BC in a month. I went on it 5-6 years ago to treat my acne and have been scared to go off it. I have most of the symptoms you described and I cant wait to see how I go. Hoping for minimal purging or the strength to deal with it at least 😅
May I ask if you actually break out after all the pill?
Thank you so much for sharing! I was never on hormonal BC but I just wanan share my experienxe shortly with the copper IUD.. I had to take it out because it somehow irritated my uterus and my periods became sooo heavy literally to the point where it was uncontrollable and I couldn‘t leave the house for too long. And I had anemia twice during this time and had to get extremely expensive iron transfusions. I‘m sure it had to to with the heavy bleeding because I didn‘t have it since.
So then my boyfriend and I spoke to a professional and had to find out that hormonal BC is defenitely NO option. It was scary to see the graphs she showed of how the normal hormonal distribution in a woman is, compared to on birth control. So we are just back to using condoms and it‘s fine for us but I think I wanna learn more about my natural cycle, so that we don‘t rely on condoms all the time.
On the other hand the copper IUD works well for my friend, so different experiences for different bodys!
I had EXTREME weight loss but unfortunately I had bad cramps when I got off. Still adjusting and my mental is lowkey really bad rn. Going for a check up soon tho.
People should know more about the hormonal iud like Kyleena. It’s still hormonal yes, but the doses it releases every day are so small and they’re released exactly where the hormones are needed (in uterus) so they’re not everywhere in your body the way pills and implant are. It is painful the first 6 months but afterwards it’s great. The pain during periods increases slightly (because of foreign object in your uterus and uterus is a muscle that contracts) but the bleeding stops almost completely. No need for tampons or even panty liners. Also 5 years no hassle and it’s pretty much as effective as sterilization.
It’s probably worth a shot for those who don’t want to go back to condoms and can’t rely on natural methods but don’t want the excessive side effects of the pill either.
I just started the Zafemy patch on Sunday and Monday was the hardest day for me, I was throwing up and had a headache this wouldn’t go away until yesterday. Didn’t have a heavy appetite at first but now I feel like everything is starting to go back to normal. I’m hoping it helps my acne and cyst ruptures but I’m also a little nervous to see how this affects my body and mind. 😅
I was just watching your last video on BC, went to your channel to see if you had an update and found you did! I’m getting off BC so I’m not looking forward to the side effects but definitely looking forward to feeling happy and not so much like a robot. Your right when you say you don’t realize the changes the BC made, you think you’ve always been like this.
It would have been great if you provided a timeline for symptoms. I’ve been off for two months and experience lots of symptoms wondering when it’ll settle down. Been on bc for 16 years
Wow I’m having the same symptoms, I got on after I have birth and I can tell my libido did go down and my boyfriend gets frustrated and it but I cant help it. Also I do feel dry too. I know for sure if I was single I would’ve been gotten off BC. I also gained A lot of weight and I feel like my metabolism slowed down significantly.
Yesss! Low libido and dry all the time now I’m off it and complete opposite 😂
I just stopped BC yesterday. The only reason i got put on it 9 years ago was for acne. Now at 25, im ready to see how my body is naturally! Thanks for sharing your story ❤
I ask if you have bleeding off the pill
@myrnamanlapaz8235 hi! I got my period 5 weeks after I stopped taking the pill. Normal period. Lasted 6 days, heavy bleeding the 2nd and 3rd day. I rarely had cramps too. I had cramps on the pill. My cycle was 34 days. My app is suggesting it's going to be 32 days this time.
I was on bc from 19-27, in the last 3 years I was really noticing how BAD it fucked up my libido. I'm also in a longterm relationship and had it in the back of my head that maybe that was just the way it is and I'm just not interested in sex anymore but I knew deep down there was no way that was the case bc I've always been somebody with a high libido. I got off of the pill because I wanted to fix that part of my life and I didn't want to have something unnatural in me anymore and it fixed it almost IMMEDIATELY after getting off lmfao. I'm 6 months off of it right now and my skin is PURGINGGG I have worse acne than I've ever had in my life but I'm trying to just stick it out and perfect my skincare routine because every other aspect of my life has improved from getting off of it!! this video was nice to see to hear that you were dealing with stubborn acne that you hadn't experienced previously and confirmed I just have to push through and eventually my skin will calm down
Thank you for sharing!
Of course!! tysm for your support and compassion. 🥹✨🫶🏼
Update on Natural Cycles?? I recently just got off birth control and been thinking about trying natural cycles and would love to hear how it’s going for you!!
WOMEN EMBRACING THEMSELVES! I love this! I’m so scheduling an appointment and removing my Nexplanon! So over it
Can you make a video on the skincare I’ve been using to help with ur acne and scarring
I started bc a few months ago and became really depressed and gained a lot of weight and now I’m really insecure. I got off and my mood is a little better and I’m waiting for the weight to go down. I’m celibate currently but I don’t know what I’m going to do when I’m active I don’t like condoms
I wish I didn’t need BC to help with my excruciating cramps :(
I have definitely been thinking about getting off birth control but i'm just so scared of getting pregnant 😅
What is your solution for pregnancy prevention with no birth control? I personally don’t prefer the way condoms feel. Do you take your temperature every morning? And do you take ovulation tests? If you do take those tests do you typically avoid sex within a certain timeframe before and after menstrual flow?
I had nexplanon and i bleed basically 365 ayear,now its going to an end to replace,i doubt myself getting that replace😭
Thank you Vivian! I REALLY appreciate this video because I went through the same thing. I'm almost 30 now, I got off Nexplanon 3-4 years ago and DID NOT have a period for a year and a half after! I was barren as well (I could not get pregnant). I'm expecting my 2nd baby now and am SOO THANKFUL I can have babies! I will Never be on birth control again. I would rather have control over my cycles and enjoy being a woman. It's Life Changing.
BTW will you Please make a video on how you maintain your Lash Extensions?? I miss mine Soo much but struggle to keep them lasting Every time I get them... I Also live in Seattle please let me know where you get them done? Thank you!! 💖
Funny enough, when I started getting severe symptoms of perimenopause, I asked my gyno to be put back on birth control at 48 years old after going off at 35 years old. My libido is strong, my hot flashes gone, more controlled hormones and highs and lows of emotions. I'm on a very low dose bc.
I was on the pill for 8 years, got off of it in early 2021, stayed off for a year, then got an IUD, and then got the IUD removed after 5 months. My hormones have been through it all!! I am so thankful to be off of those synthetic hormones though now. My mental health has improved drastically. Only thing is that getting the IUD taken out made me gain 10 lbs but I was underweight to begin with. The IUD gave me very bad acne... Cleared up quickly after I got it taken out.
How was IUD withdrawal for you? In regards to your body having received progestin for so long and suddenly not getting it anymore
And how were you coping emotionally
@@zaranoori765 For me personally I only felt relief when I got it out. My mental health improved, I experienced less brain fog, my libido went back to normal, and my acne cleared. I had Kyleena btw. The only thing is that it took my period several months to get back to normal and I get very severe cramps when I do get my period but only on the very first day. They are definitely painful if left untreated but Advil/Midol and a heating pad are all I need to knock the pain out completely. Also, post-IUD my periods got much heavier but shorter (only last 3 days on average). However I track my period with an app and the app has been extremely accurate for me and my cycle is completely back to normal now. So the biggest change that I noticed was really with my period.
I honestly don’t mind the change because I prefer my body going through its natural process. Also the IUD did not fully take my period away. It just made my cycle extremely irregular. There were times when it made me get my period twice in 1 month. There were other months when I didn’t have my period at all.
Felt the same after getting off the pill, main reason I got off it was the libido issues I was having and as soon as I detoxed it I felt brand new just like you said it’s wild how much BC makes you feel old and menopausal! Getting off it probably saved my relationship and haven’t had any pregnancy scares. Deffo worth it for me.
That’s amazing that you feel so much better! So grateful that your health is improving in your body and lifestyle. 🥹🫶🏼
Hey! I am named vivian too and i kinda look similar to u but younger your so beautiful! New sub your so pretty❤😊
You’re so kind!! tysm for your love and support. 🤍🫶🏼😌
I met my boyfriend two years after being on Birth control. I want to go off of it but I am scared of not being attracted to him anymore like a lot of other girl's experiences.
I've been in this BC rabbit hole all afternoon and apparently there's a study suggesting that women find different features attractive while on BC vs off it. It's unbelievable but maybe if you're aware of that you can be mindful of your attraction to him during the process 🤔
I went off the pill for 6 months while my bf was still away in the Air Force. He visited for Christmas, and boom, I’m now 9 months preggo. Lol. I don’t want to go back on the pill but I also don’t want to get pregnant again!!! D:
I highly DO NOT recommend the copper IUD. Tried it for just 3.5 months and developed chronic headaches and insane bloating in my stomach that I am still working to get rid of till today, even after I got the copper IUD removed after the 3.5 months. While it may work for some it did not work for me so I highly encourage you to do your research and make sure to ask all the necessary questions to your practitioner prior to getting an IUD.
In addition oral birth control pills gave me a bilateral pulmonary embolism (blood clots in my lungs) which almost killed me. Please be careful and cautious and know all potential risks of birth control prior to taking it, as I do feel many medical practitioners downplay the side effects of birth control and downplay the pain involved with IUD procedures.
I had such a positive experience on the pill. However, unfortunately when I came off the pill last October, I lost a lot of my hair up until recently. It's not my thyroid because I take meds for that. It is just crazy. Hopefully my hair will start growing back.
Two of my friends had the same experience as you! For one it lasted almost a year and for the other it was 4-5 months. But after that time passed both stopped losing hair and now they are back to their normal healthy thick hair so don’t worry it’s just a phase and it’ll get better again ☺️🩷
@@katrinklamminger5336 Thanks for sharing! I am so happy that both of your friends hair are back to normal. I look forward to that. 😊💕
@@-bexx I am sorry you had to go through that. It is awful! Happy to hear that your hair grew back! 😊😊
Wow! You started early 😳
Getting my IUD soon😬😬
What was the contraceptive that was 98% effective ?
Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this! I’m also 25 and I’ve been taking BC since I was 16, I’m so ready to get off of it but so terrified of the heavy periods. Did you find that your bleeding decreased in terms of heaviness post BC or do you still have days where it’s heavy?
i didn't have an issue with that! i went from having pretty much no period to having a more normal cycle with ~2-3 days of average - heavy period bleeding. hope this vid helps with your decision!
from my knowledge and reading the Period Repair Manual, when tend to bleed more heavily when you're younger and less as you mature. From my personal experience of getting off BC at 27 years old, my periods were not heavy but I also utilized the information in that mentioned Manual to help keep my hormones stable to negate immediate effects of getting off BC
@@bbgdragon thank you for sharing! I’ll have to check it out, very relieving to hear that!! 😊
How long were you all off the pill when noticing these benefits? I stopped for 2 months to see if anything would change, and when it didn’t, I went back on
Rebalancing your hormone s after being on a birth control pill takes longer than two
Months . Even longer depending on how long you’ve been on it
Thank you for for sharing your experience. I think we can all agree that birth control works differently for everyone as you said. I had and currently have a wonderful experience with the combination pill. Great confidence, skin, libido etc. You can totally have a normal cycle with the sugar pill week. While you mention that you’re not a professional and simply sharing your negative experience from the pill, I can’t help but feel that this video is geared towards a negative view of birth control. It can scare young girls who are looking to seek birth control. With the correct usage and dosage it can be very beneficial as it is the safest contraceptive with added benefits such as alleviating cramping, clearing skin, lighter amount during period etc
May I ask what is the name of birth control you use?
@@andreaf2800 Aubra!
I wish I could track my ovulation on my own but I’ve been on birth control for 10 years so I’d be completely lost. I never had a regular cycle ☹️ stresses me out
It’s super easy with the Flo app you see certain symptoms you usually have during ovulation period
I’m thinking of getting off birth control but I’m very hesitant. Did anyone feel more jealous and insecure while on birth control than off of it?
Yesssss
I hope you will reply
I was thinking of having birthcontrol pill only for one month for my honeymoon.. so is it okay as condom dont give 100% protection from pregnancy
So birth control seem like a good option
Will it couse weight gain... will it lower my libido ????
Plz reply plz
I went off the pill for 1 year. When I stopped taking it my skin was the best its been since I was an adult i was then 30. When I decided to started taking the pill again I got large cystic acne on my chin and cystic lumps in my groin. I becsme more anxious and started feeling depressed. I didnt want to leave the house. I slept and layed around for 2 week. I had never had that before. I also gained 5lbs in 2 weeks.
When i stopped taking the pill I got my libido back. But not for long because my bf makes me feel horrible about the fact I'm a fertility woman. We might have sex once every 4-6 weeks. He refuses to buy condoms. I've used a fertility app to avoid pregnancy for 9 months and it's working for me.
He shouldn’t be making you feel horrible for something natural… he sounds like a huge selfish red flag 🚩 🚩
Wait so every single birth control method has these side effects or like??? Even the injections in the arm?
I am actually the opposite. I never used birth control (except once) and am finally able to start with the hopes it'll stop the excruciating pain I get on my periods. I tried the Depo shot once and it destroyed me and I became a completely different person that I did not recognize. I want to try again though so I went to a different doctor and finally have something new.
Started in my 40s , I would never in my childbearing years, I spent my 20s pregnant, I have 4 children. As I was entering peri menopause I started to have longer and heavier periods up to 2 weeks of heavy bleeding that affected every aspect of my life. I don’t think young girls and women should be on birth control in childbearing age, it’s a terrible idea!
Some people like myself really need it though
Are you still taking spiro?
The libido issue! I would force myself to initiate sex because I felt bad about the lack of sex in my relationship. My partner would comment that he knew I didn’t want to, but I would do my best for his benefit. We always had to use lube because I was so dry down there. Getting off the pill was like night and day for my sex drive and my husband has definitely noticed🤣
I’ve been off birth control for a little over a year now too. I’m not even gonna lie, I tried every single type of birth control method there is. I was on birth control since I was 15 and I am now 29. I absolutely hated all of them. Weight gain, no libido, crazy mood swings, no periods, all the bad. Only good thing was I never got pregnant. After being off of birth control, it’s been amazing! However, my period is still not back to normal. It used to be super regular prior to bc, but now it’s irregular and only lasts two days. Which I don’t mind at all. But it seems like our experience with bc is so similar! Crazy the things we do to our bodies!!!
I want to get a hysterectomy when I’m 45 which is 4 yrs from now. I never want kids and I don’t want to get knocked up by accident if and when I marry.
Why not copper IUD?
I'm worried if I get off birthcontrol I'll lose interest in my fiance... I love him just worry myself will do a 180 and change
98% if you have a normal cycle…and do it correctly
Weight loss? I've gained over 40 lbs in two years, my mental and emotional state are worse than ever before to the point of wanting to take my life and I even have acne on both of my arms something I didn't get while I was a teenager
every time I watch your videos I hear Selena Gomez lol
WOW! As someone who has watched this channel for years it’s really disheartening to see you promote better help.
They’re not HIPPA compliant, their “therapists” aren’t qualified and not to mention the HORRIBLE experiences people already struggling w mental health have had with better help
I used detox enemas for the side effects.
So glad for you. Hope someday you believe in marriage as God’s way. ☺️🙏🏼

i’m finally going off birth control after being on the depo shot for over 4 years without knowing it’s not a good long term option and i have been thinking about trying natural cycles so i would love to see a video from you about it!! 🫶🏽 ty for sharing!
The acne part. I’ve been off of birth control twice for long periods of time, the first being the pill and my skin was at its best. The second time when I had my IUD removed (a year and a month ago), my skin has been at it’s worst. The most painful hormonal acne along my jaw and cheeks. A lot better now than how it was in the last 8 months, but still bad. Trying to push through it 🥲
