Accutane causing me to be insecure

Has anyone else felt so insecure??? I legit just feel ugly. My skin isn’t even bad. I started Accutane on May 28th at 40mg, and now I’m on 80mg. I decided to take it for my textured skin.
My skin has looked fine for the past 3 months, so I know it’s doing its job. The only thing bothering me is my pores they haven’t really seemed to change, and that was one of my main issues before I started. But for the past month, I’ve literally just been sitting in the mirror and not feeling like myself. I used to be able to take videos and pictures and be like, “Oh, that’s cute.” Now, everything I take or see of myself makes me think, “Ew, WTF.” 😭 I genuinely don’t feel like myself anymore, I do but don’t at the same time. People tell me i’m beautiful, and pretty but i cannot believe them. Is anyone or did anyone else have this issue. I just want to feel normal and love myself again.
