My Journey to halt/end my psoriasis

[Sheila]

Well...here I am again to complain! Man, my face is taking a beating using only home remedies. Soooo crusty on my forehead, around my nose, in my ears, behind my ears around my bald head (about 30% coverage there), above my lips. My chest and stomach are getting worse. I can't wait for my appointment. With all the itching, I am seriously considering going through with using Duobrii. I know I have said I would not do steroids as treatment again, but seriously? I gotta find some relief somehow. It itches, it's painful and still 4.75 months until my appointment with the dermatologist I don't like and even then it's just an introductory appointment. Right at this moment, I would crawl into a tub filled with a steroid mix.  

Can't wait to get the treatment underway. When I looked into the mirror this morning, I saw how ugly I am with all the redness and scaling. I was instantly depressed. Thoughts of, "How can people even look at me like this? How can they not feel grossed out? I am grossed out by my own looks! I looked in the mirror to see how much my mask hid on my face. It was worse. All you could see was red and scaling. Barely a square inch of clear skin.

I know I said how much clearer my skin looked since I cut out gluten, but man, psoriasis is coming back with a vengeance. I could almost cry. 

And yes, Fred, you told me so! It would only work for a short time. Now reality is hitting back. 

Welcome to my sucky day!
