For almost 4 years I have been struggling with a severe health issue called eczema/topical steroid withdrawal or TSW. This condition has impacted my life in many ways where constant pain and itching pulled my attention away from living normally. Trying every remedy that farma had to offer only made it worse to the point where I was hospitalised with a dangerous infection from taking immunosuppressants.
Starting a new relationship at the same moment where you have to go through the hardest years of your life is sub-optimal to say the least. At the time where you want to show your best self but can’t because of your medical condition and not projecting your own mental state onto your partner was an internal struggle every day.
At this moment I can say with great relief that the worst is behind me by focussing on diet, sleep and avoiding toxins in everyday products, steroid creames and immunosuppressants. I am very greatfull for the time I have been together with my partner @chelsea.m.l which has met me at my worst and still stuck with me though this difficult time. She could shift my mind to a positive state in the most painful moments. It strengthened our relationship a great deal. You have kept me going by creating these amazing moments together.
Thanks pip for being there for me, you know I do the same for you ❤️
