I know how it feels i've suffered from eczema for the last 2 years of my life, though not as severe as what your going through. I don't know what to say to help you out but always remember there will always be someone there with you, someone who loves you and someone who cares for you, Jesus will always be there for you. It's what's got me through these last two years.

Never lose sight of the bigger picture afterall what is our purpose on this world other then to prove we're worthy of the gifts he has install for us. I'll be praying for you.


ps. i know my eczema is caused from a gluten intolerance, and it is the most underdiagnosed kind, perhaps it would be worth investigating.

good luck

Hi Mo, I think that eczema is different for everyone who suffers from it. Different factors trigger breakouts for different people. For me, I know that stress is definitely a factor, as it may also be for you. You sound very stressed out, which is understandable. It is such a vicious cycle. The breakouts stress you out, which in turn triggers more breakouts. But besides the stress there is probably some other cause for your eczema. When you combine this factor with stress it is a recipe for disaster. Perhaps a food you're eating, or something you come in contact with at work or home. For me, I work in a restaurant, and when I wore rings to work, it caused eczema only under the ring. But, if I got really stressed out about something in my life, I would break out all over. If I don't wear rings to work, its not so bad and usually goes away until stress triggers another episode. You have to figure out what is causing your eczema. It may be a long and difficult process, but well worth the effort in the end! Have you noticed any patterns (after you eat a certain food, it gets worse etc..). Keep a journal to help you remember.

Have you thought about doing a bowel cleanse? I am on day 3 of The Master Cleanse (lemonade diet) in hopes that it will help my eczema. I don't know if it will work or not, but I'm giving it a shot because nothing else has gotten rid of it completely. If nothing else, hopefully it will make me just feel better in general. Good luck to you.

Mo,
Eczema ia an inflammatory disease of the skin, and is regarded as an allergic disorder to a general condition known as "atopy". Eczematous lesions are actually infected chronically and has an infective component. The culprits include several varieties of fungi as well as staph and strep, this is why it is so difficult to treat. As usual physicians are largely unaware of the role of chronic infection in eczema. This is a travesty, because the wrong treatment is administered. Drs give cortisone, both orally and topically, which is the exact opposite of what should be done. Cortisone creams may relieve the 'symptoms' but they fail to address the "CAUSE", thus, no cure is achieved. As with any fungal/ parasite infestation, it MUST be destroyed internally first, then topically the lesions will go away.
I feel for you, and you don't have to cry yourself to sleep anymore.
Send me an email so we can communicate, and I will help you get rid of your eczema, at no cost to you.

> I can't sleep cause i'm itchy. I tried crying myself to sleep but the stress aggrevated the urge to itch so I stopped. I need someone to talk to, an outlet for my life that went so wrong.
>
> Let me tell you about the eczema that destroyed my life. I can't look in the mirror anymore. Cause I don't know who is looking back. Rashes all over my face, my skins dry and gluggy, my eyes red. How did it become this way, i can't remember. It was so long ago, I can't remember when it started, but i know what it has done.
>
> I don't go out much. I spend days in my darkened room. If i can't see myself or if no one can see me, i am happy. I feel no pain in the dark, it doesn't judge me, it can't see me. If I do go out, I wear sunglasses, and a hat, and look down. No eye contact cause I do not want to see people looking at me. Without my disguise i've been mistaken for a drug addict. I've never thought about taking drugs in my life although i look the part and labeled.
>
> How can anyone take me seriously in this state. My education has suffered. I fail to attend. When I wake up i contemplate whether I should go to school instead of what should I learn. I don't end up going. My potential scared by my problem. All those years to get into University, and i'm on the fringe of getting kicked out. The work is not hard, only coping with my eczema is.
>
> My self-esteem is low. I'm 21 years old, wondering in my dark room what might have been, but will never be. It doesn't go away. It gets worse, i'm losing control. I pray for it to go away. It has destroyed, me, then i destroyed myself. My only comfort is in my darkness, I see myself how i should have been, I looked so happy. But in reality....I have no future. I need help. :(

I have to say myself I know exactly how you feel. About a year ago I was pregnant, and slowly showed signs of eczema on part of my body. I went many times to the dermatologist, swearing it was scabies, even though I knew it wasn't. I took bloodtests, skin graphs, the works and they still couldn't figure it out. I didn't sleep either for weeks, and months. I was given every topical cream I think known to man, and oral drugs. Even ones to try and make me sleep. But they didn't make me sleep for to long. I know the pain and Depression you feel. You feel almost like Doctors in general let you down, because they are even to baffled. Not only was I pregnant but I also had this itchy skin that I thought would never go away. I hated how I looked even more. Time did pass and finally a Dr's office I went to in the city said it was a pregnancy related rash, or so they could only say. I did finally feel better after the birth of my child. I know your probably not pregnant and maybe I can say it actually went away, but I can say I know the disappointment, sadness, and the feeling of hating yourself and how you look. I used to think if there is a god out there, why would he make me go through this much aggrivation. I guess I don't really have an answer to that, but don't give up. I think stress has alot to do in the matter. But it's hard to not think about it either. Don't give up! Keep on the doctors to help you. I wish you the best and hope my story could give you some sort of comfort, I guess, knowing that there are other people that do go through alot of the same problems. I can at least tell you I have many scares that will take, I don't know how long to fade away, if they do, I hope! I have a constant reminder and fear of it coming back. Sorry you have to feel that way. No one should go through that.

Dear,
I’d like to describe a little bit different way how to treat health or skin problems to you.
I suffered from atopic eczema all my childhood. My mom tried everything possible to help me, but nothing worked. I went to see many doctors, tried every cream or pills with no results. I remember my mom how desperately she tried. One day I don't know why, but I went to see a healer who came to my town once a month to help people. Believe or not. The eczema what I was suffering from for 18 years was gone within few weeks. I learned at that time, that skin is only a mirror of my organism. The problem on the skin is just a demonstration of some of your organ problems. Skin problem is just one way how to let you know about that.
But anyway, when I was 20 years old I started to travel to different countries. Never had problems with my skin until I came to USA 5 years ago. I was OK for 4 years but last year I got severe eczema again. Except my face I had it everywhere.
I tried everything possible for few months, with no results at all. I decided to search for alternative help again. I got in touch with Mr. Gellner who was claiming he can treat any health problem over the distance by meditation. And he was saying that he was successful in 99% of all eczema cases so far .First I didn't believe it and was fighting with that problems for another months. Than I said to myself, I don't need to risk anything, if I'm going to try and I did. 5 months was nothing happening at all. On the 6th month my bad eczema disappeared within one week and never came back again. His treatment is very unusual but has the best advantage what nobody else can offer. You pay after you see the results. You can just give it a try and wait till it comes. From the time I got fixed from him, I started to promote his healing method around the world. It is not about money, but about helping to other people, because I know how people with eczema can feel in our society.

I know it has been awhile since you posted this about your eczema and I am wondering if anything has helped you. If not please e-mail me because I have something that can help!

Hope to hear from you,
dusty

I know it's been a very long time since you posted this, but I only came across this site today.
How you felt when you posted this is how I was last year. I couldn't look in the mirror. I was too scared of what I would see. I still avoid mirrors as much as possible. I still keep the rooms darkened as much as possible and avoid turning on the light. I have had eczema for a long time, but last year was the worst. I lost my self esteem, I couldn't look in teh mirror, I didn't wanna go out, and it finally took me physically too. I couldn't walk. So I couldn't go to uni or work. My whole body was covered in eczema and it hurt so so much. It hurt by just sitting there and breathing. I couldn't walk, not even to just get up and sit down.

However, I can walk now, and it is not all over my body anymore. I still have eczema, but I am so much better than before. I am getting better at looking at the mirror and going out more too.

How are you now? I hope you are better too.
