To the young folks: I'm 59. I have deep "elevens" that came from squinting -- it's from not wearing sunglasses and not doing a good job of keeping up with my eye prescriptions (I'm nearsighted). Your eye care also affects your skin. Take care of your eyes!

[@mm669]

Yes, and I think to much sun exposure effects your night driving when you get older (makes night driving harder, earlier in life).

[@stellashepherd3229]

I’m the opposite. I am miserable in the heat but feel energized and joyful in cold weather. Of course being from Vermont I know how to dress for it. 😊

Just want to let you know how much I appreciate and take to heart, and put into practice, your expertise and advice. Although I’m almost 70 now, I think it’s better late than never for this native southern Californian sun/beach worshipper to get on board with good practices. I enjoy many of your great product recommendations. I finally just graduated from adapalene to tretinoin. Thank you for putting in the regular and consistent effort to reach all of us out here, and for being such an inspiration. (I think you are so adorable and you remind me of my daughter)

[@stargazerbird]

Dental health also helps us look young. My parents lost teeth as they aged and didn’t get them replaced. It makes your jaw shrink. There was a lot of air pollution as well. Everyone had a coal fire and the air would be brown!

[@hrhsophiathefirst4060]

I high jumped as a teenager and in college and I am from a Caribbean island. I recently found out that a couple of aunts, an uncle and a cousin had to have a surgical procedure to remove a growth from their eyes caused by over exposure to sun. Due to the fact that I have worn sun glasses because of track I basically never have gone without for over 30 years so I do not have the lines between the eyes nor have I had any issues with my eyes. An added perk is looking cool while wearing them!

[@highaloft]

I don't think it's that mental illness mellows out with age, exactly; rather, the sufferers we see who are past a certain age have obviously survived, while others have succumbed earlier in some way. Every day that a sufferer of an illness survives can feel like a kind of, if not "triumph," then at least a fact that bodes well for the day/s further. It's like resigning oneself to the sense that, "Well, i got through today, and through the day before that; so maybe, just maybe, I'll get through tomorrow, even if thru inertia." And before you know it, a week or a month or a year has passed. Now, there *is* something to be said with all the hormonal changes and brain development from adolescence even into the mid 20s, and I do remember the intensity of my own mental difficulties during that age period could feel particularly hard to handle. But I don't think my condition's mellowed out so much as I've learned from experience how best to manage it, I know better where/how to get help and who to trust, i can see loved ones around me more clearly and really understand the consequences to others if i don't manage my illness, and like I said above, there's a little awareness in the back of my mind that anyway I've gotten this far already.

[@anaos1004]

That’s a really interesting perspective. You can see how smokers have such bad and aged skin. And passive smokers suffer too.

[@bunnybubs757]

Not all 😩 genetics has a play

[@DrDrayzday]

Glad there is no smoking in planes..that was intense

[@Pamela-B]

@@DrDrayzday oh I know!! I was a smoker during those days and even I was gasping for air during those flights. Terrible!

[@SueRosalie]

@@Pamela-B and smokers used to buy non-smoking seats! They would go and smoke up the back of the plane then go sit in the non-smoking section! The idea that there was some kind of magic barrier between smoking and non-smoking sections was of course ridiculous

[@gummy5862]

I think a large part of it is people’s perception of human life has changed. You’re not “old and used up” by a certain age anymore. This leads to people actually putting effort into their appearance and fitness well into their later years.

[@chateau7]

I really like online classes and online meetings, too. It's so much easier to focus when I'm relaxed, barefoot, and able to review things that have been recorded by the instructor, and I'm not sitting in an uncomfortable chair in a classroom.

[@edithfarr3879]

I remember when people were still able to smoke in restaurants and having to ask to be seated in “non smoking” section.

[@Amy-gn6zw]

I love that you love stickers. 💗 I smoked and drank for 20 years. I did a 180, stopped both of those, switched to water and started taking care of my skin. I honestly look younger now than I did 10 years ago. 💗

[@Stephanie-cq8mf]

My mother feels the same about the heat as you. She loves it, hates the cold and is angry about it lol. I myself am the exact opposite. Heat makes me feel horrible, and the cold feels so refreshing 😊 It was hot here in Virginia this summer and I’m so happy to see the temps drop some this week.

[@lottiesmith3643]

Re mental health and age: I volunteer in community services and younger clients on the whole are usually far more lucid than older clients (and by older I mean in the 30s to 60s age range not necessarily elderly), despite having many of the same mental health and substance abuse issues. So take from that what you will. I do think traumas tend to compound with age: divorces, loss of parents, loss of friends, even mental health episodes in themselves are a kind of trauma. For some people these compounded traumas affect them in perhaps irreversible ways.

[@kimmisc01]

Mental health is more intense in young people because of big dreams, high expectations of finding blissful happiness, and the fact that they're more passionate about everything. It hurts when reality settles in and you realize everything in life is hard. It calms down with age because every year of life is another year of exposure therapy. You grow numb to the little things, and the presbyopia blurs your imperfections so much that your mirror is like a snapchat filter. Mental health gets pretty bad with chronic illness though, especially painful ones... the depression gets really bad while in debilitating pain for years.

[@sammylove14]

I had some INTENSE and terrible depression in my early 20s and it was HORRIBLE- and thankfully I am not depressed anymore now in my mid 30s so I totally believe that I had to learn life skills to manage the stress and disappointments of life.

I love that line of stickers....they're cute. Another reason we aren't aging as much (skin-wise) is we're no longer an agricultural nation. The majority of the country farmed, and spent beacoup hours out in the sun/weather with no sun screen. Now most people don't spend that kind of time outside.

[@jcg03002]

I struggled more with being too cold in Florida because of AC. You’re just sitting there, freezing. It’s easier for me to live in cold places because the interiors are never as cold than in hot places!

I know for me I have had mental illness all my life. I am now 36 years old. And off all medication! But I am functioning the same way as I was when on meditation. I think my illness was way worse in my early 20's. My anxiety was so bad I had to cancel plans. I have lots of diagnoses some are: Ptsd, bipolar, borderline...so for all of you young adults in ur early 20s that suffer with mental illness please know that life will calm down and get better!

I'm with you about being cold. I hate winter and feeling like I'm curled in a ball all the time. I also can't sleep in a cool bedroom, it's impossible for me to get comfortable. Give me summer warmth any day! :D I remember seeing pictures during the 50's of Hollywood stars between takes on a movie set where they were all smoking cigarettes. It was rare to find a star from that era that actually took good care of themselves, Esther Williams comes to mind as one of the few.

[@deena681]

Don’t worry about the heat going away. It’s hotter for longer than it is cooler and there are prolonged droughts. Sometimes I think restaurants are cooler to freeze the insects. 🤣

I dislike Winter and colder months but I can’t sleep in a warm/hot room lol.

[@littleblackpistol]

Marilyn Monroe used to weight train, which was practically unknown for women in her day. Didn't use very heavy weights, but still, she did it. She ran too. Didn't smoke. Ate a high protein, low carb diet. Her downfall was prescription drugs she was give for her very severe anxiety which she suffered more and more seriously from as her career progressed, and pain from what seems likely to be endometriosis.

[@jcg03002]

I get hives when it’s too cold, too. Cold induced urticaria

[@queenbunnyfoofoo6112]

The reason restaurants are kept cold is for the workers. The wait staff are running around working up a sweat, and the kitchens are brutal. Air conditioning is expensive to run....a restaurant would keep it warmer if it wasn't for concern the staff would faint.

[@Serenity7250]

I can attest to mental illness mellowing out over the decades. I'm doing so much better these days for whatever reason. What I personally put it down to is having to research diet and making sure my body gets every nutrient. Since taking control of that, my symptoms have reduced to a level where I'm able to function and even create art again. My 20s and early 30s were a living HELL that I barely survived. I just hope I never regress again.

I agree that the intensity of symptoms for someone with MH Disorder may decrease in time but have seen older adults experiencing episodes at times that would counter that idea. I worked with adults of all ages and even our psychiatrists noted that illness intensity lessens as they age. IMO I think their brain just slows down with that energy maybe younger folks have naturally.

[@fubsies6664]

I agree that people seem to level out as they get older. I’m 28 and Im just now starting to feel stable. My friends seem to as well. It was the worst around age 18, at last for me. I think there’s generally more awareness regarding mental health these days too which probably helps accelerate self acceptance.

When you put sunscreen on of course you put it under your nose. I have had two small skin cancer places under my nose and just realized that though I have worn makeup or sunscreen…they popped up.

Dr. Dray, I was watching an old video that you did on urea. It was great. However, I’m still confused about if used in higher concentrations how it differs from an AHA. For example, how does a 12% urea cream differ from 12% lactic or 12% glycolic acid lotion? Would you consider doing a video that contrast urea with AHA and BHA and/or how they can support each other? Thanks.

[@floraafroza1365]

So if anyone likes a bit of chemistry, the hydration and exfoliation aspect has to do with the hydrogens involved. Hydrogen bonding occurs when things are hydrated, keeps things looking plump and juicy (physical), whereas exfoliation is when a proton is donated by the acid which is a chemical reaction. I think polyhydroxy acids work like this too

And I had such allergies to the cigarette smoke. I could be sitting in a restaurant looking in the window of the one across the street seeing someone smoking and then I would start sneezing. Restaurants were not too kind when you asked for the non-smoking area, that area was reserved and clean and when you sat in the smoking area, patrons heard me ask and then they all decided to light up. I wasn't bold enough then to say you know what, never mind we can eat someplace else. You can surely isolate Us in the other section but you're afraid you may have to clean a table again and you'd prefer I be uncomfortable and unhealthy and pay you for this food.

mental health amelioration: its probably a correlation between the coping skills and experience gained with aging rather than anything physiological to do with the brain. i personally have seen people's mental health deterioration over the 40s and 50s so.... its really about how much you can do as early on as you can to help yourself cope if you do have a physiological issue. it could ultimately go either way.

[@juliecassidy7353]

Schizophrenia is an intriguing subject for me directly. I am a fragile x carrier and unclear where it stemmed from. Now, I’ve heard my great grandfather was “crazy” and likely afflicted by schizophrenia. Interestingly he was an orphan during the depression and once married had approximately 12 daughters and 2 sons. Only one son survived. He was also a farmer raising tobacco, cotton, and sugar. So you tell me: crazy with schizophrenia or crazy because of situation. Perhaps both are true.

If I get seated under an AC vent by the time we leave I feel as though I’ve caught a cold - my nose is running, I’m shivering, and I have goosebumps on my arms. This is dating myself, when I was in college, professors and students could smoke during class - talk about second hand smoke! In grad school the class sizes were small and the lecture rooms were too, by the end of the hour/two hour class, my eyes, nose, and throat were stinging. If I get lung cancer it will be from that exposure. Eric Clapton did the Cocaine song.

Affordable wrap around sunglasses you recommend?

I can't wait for your skincare line. When's the launch?

[@janetthomas8244]

I was sooo happy when they banned smoking. Really suffered. Worked once with Bowie. He was quite strange. His wife Iman tho is friendly and outgoing and quite the character.

Happy Sunday! This is my senior year in undergrad and we are all in person, as I was last year due to my major being unteachable online! 💛💛

[@DrDrayzday]

It is handy

Personality disorders do tend to get less with age but schizophrenia does not get less and in fact gets worse as does actual bipolar disorder (most of the people who say they are bipolar are actually borderline for insurance billing purposes). One of these days I’ll make may own KZbin channel.

People always ask me why i don’t have many eye wrinkles at 51. I have been wearing sunscreen on my face since my 20’s, but I wonder if it’s because I ALWAYS wear sunglasses. I have to wear glasses to see well, so I almost never go out without my sunnies. I live in Los Angeles where theres bright glare & sunny days year round. However I did smoke occasionally in my 20’s, so the skin around my mouth didn’t hold up as well.

I have always worn sunglasses religiously due to sensitivity to light and I have had crows feet since i was 19. So, theory debunked in my case. Genetics and having an overly expressive face is what I blame it on. And no botox. 😬

[@HeatherFonseca]

@@AllyKit well, so much for that idea. I also have pretty oily skin. That might help me out too.

[@ac4181]

@@HeatherFonseca How would wearing sunglasses not help prevent crowsfeet? I'm sure it helped you! I mean, you're stopping the sun almost completely so no sun damage can actually occur. Lines are predominately caused by photoaging. I have photosensitivity and have always worn them, since a young adult and seems like the only person doing so on overcast days. At 52, I am just starting to see some lines when I smile. I'm not claiming to look 25 years younger or whatever, but my eye area looks great still

[@HeatherFonseca]

@@ac4181 I definitely have a lot more aging skin on the bottom of my face then around my eyes and brow. I usually wear a hat and almost always wear sunglasses during the day. Makes sense to me

Happy Sunday! Have a great week ahead Dr.Dray ❤️

Happy Sunday

On your comment about mental illnesses peaking in your 20s and 30s, I think it depends on the mental illnesses themselves and availability of resources like treatments. Symptoms of certain mental illnesses like schizophrenia do not necessarily "peak" in the 20s and 30s, but the average onset begins late adolescence or early adulthood, and usually somewhat earlier in men than in women. Although I can see why one may view the symptoms "appearing" to be the worst during that period, due to the age of the initial onset itself and the individual not yet experienced in terms of management. Typically, with access to psycho-education and various treatment options, symptoms may appear better with time. However, the credit lies to the management of the symptoms and not necessarily the brain "mellowing out" - just talking about schizophrenia in this case. Again, it'll vary depending on the specific mental disorder. btw, I love your content!

I love the skin aqua sunscreen too. I have prescription sunglasses, but they weren't expensive. The site I get them from is called $39 glasses, but I think it is a little more for the sunglasses. My regular glasses also darken outside, but it isn't enough in our summer sun. It was worth it to invest in an extra pair of actual sunglasses. My eye doctor is adamant about wearing a hat and sunglasses. I hate hats, but I am determined to start wearing one this year. I just bought a fedora with sun protection. I am hoping it will look good and be an incentive to cover my head more.

[@meshelle_kimeko]

Good morning Dr. Dray on this beautiful rainy Sunday.

[@Jessica-wq7mj]

People with mental illnesses may appear to mellow out in their 40s and beyond because the people around them have learned how to adapt to their behaviors and help them better navigate a world that isn't necessarily set up to understand them.

[@ellamierrose1812]

I hate being too cold from air conditioning if I'm chilling at home or like you mentioned, restaurants can be freezing! If it's winter I don't mind to bundle up in a big sweater and wrap but my family drive me crazy keeping the house too cold. 😬

[@shaund9759]

How is your Mom doing?

[@anikaali7009]

Happy Sunday Dr. Dray! Your videos are super helpful and informational. You did a video about silicones on skin and hair. That video helped me clear a lot of misconceptions about silicones. And you'll be glad that I finally found a shampoo with amodimethicone, since most shampoos that are imported here contains high levels of dimethicone. I found a local brand that contains only amodimethicone. Love from Bangladesh🇧🇩.

[@pamcanfield255]

I, too, am MISERABLE in the cold! I've always been that way to a degree, but even more so after my liver transplant 4 yrs ago. My immuno- suppressants exacerbate it to the inth degree! When we go out for dinner, my husband knows to request a table with no direct A/C vents blowing on it!

[@susanphelps1276]

I miss seeing your sweet mom. ❤️

[@bunnybubs757]
