I don’t think I see many posts about this, but I’m curious to know if I’m not alone. Does your eczema literally make you feel like a monster? Like, I can’t wear shorts. I can’t get my nails done because it’s all over my hands. I can’t shave my armpits because it’s under there too. The list goes on. It makes me so deeply depressed and I feel hopeless about it getting better. Anyone else deal with the severe mental health decline that comes with long term flare ups?
I just want to be able to do daily tasks and wear clothes and feel comfortable and not scratch all the time and i want my skin to be hydrated and healthy. Cant even wear the clothes i like , even while im at home… the hair on my arm annoys me… removing it is easy but still who has time to do it all the time. On bad water feels weird so sometimes i skip brushing my teeth. I feel bad about it but idk what else to do. Sorry, didnt mean to gross yall out with the brushing detail. I pray for all of us to find relief.
