Would YOU drive 3 hours for your waxer? 👀👇

One year ago this month, my life completely changed.

I developed a severe and debilitating skin disorder, and after keeping so much of what I went through private, I’m finally ready to talk about it and share my story.

TSW took six long, excruciatingly painful months of my life. Half a year of pretending I was okay, showing up to work, running my business, and acting like my whole world hadn’t just been flipped upside down.

Half a year of burning, shedding, weeping, and raw skin. Of crying everyday, barely recognizing myself, being depressed and uncomfortable, every single day.

Things that seem so normal became impossible. I couldn’t wear normal clothes because anything touching my skin hurt. I couldn’t even shower without screaming and crying from the pain of water touching my skin.

How lucky are we to be able to do things without thinking twice— like taking a shower, putting on clothes, sleeping comfortably. Things I never thought I’d be grateful for until I couldn’t do them anymore. I’m just so grateful.

This disorder isn’t only physically draining. It’s mentally and emotionally draining in ways I can’t fully explain, and it’s something I wouldn’t wish on anyone.

I shared very little while going through this because it was uncomfortable and sad seeing myself like this. Even posting these pictures and videos is extremely vulnerable for me. Most of these moments I’ve never shared with anyone.

I’m not sharing this for anyone to feel bad for me. I’m sharing it to bring awareness to TSW—Topical Steroid Withdrawal.
