19 Months TSW

August 25, 2016 brianarachelle23Leave a comment

Hello all, Just another update. There isn’t much to tell, skin wise. My hands and elbow area are the most stagnant. My neck, face, and stomach have a few issues that fluctuate. The itch is still present and I had acrylic nails put on to help. Today, I am embarking on an experiment. It will… Continue reading 19 Months TSW

1.5 Years of TSW

July 25, 2016July 25, 2016 brianarachelle2310 Comments

I have hit the 18 month mark. It still wows me. I get excited about these landmarks, not because I’m happy that I’ve been going through this for so long, but because of how proud I am that I have not given up the fight against this condition and the man! I will never give… Continue reading 1.5 Years of TSW

17 Months TSW

Almost a full 1.5 years into this withdrawal. So strange to think how far I have come. I am still healing but in a much better place. It’s a bit stagnant now, but I’ll take that over a roller coaster. In my first few months, this was me… Unreal to look at. And, to be… Continue reading 17 Months TSW

My First Encounter

May 28, 2016May 28, 2016 brianarachelle232 Comments

Nothing could have prepared me for yesterday. In all my 16 months of withdrawing, I had yet to meet another sufferer like myself. I have spoken to many online, sharing our stories and our journey through this nightmare, but never once had I met someone face to face. That’s not to say the offer has… Continue reading My First Encounter

16 Months TSW

May 25th! Today marks 16 months for me going through Topical Steroid Withdrawal. I am writing to you from England which makes this even more exciting! I will be here for a while visiting my in-laws. Jack and I haven’t been here since June 2014. Much overdo! Like most Red Skin Warriors, change is not… Continue reading 16 Months TSW

What a Year Looks Like

May 14, 2016 brianarachelle23Leave a comment

Yesterday, my time line reminded me how far I have come in this withdrawal battle. I think it still boggles minds when talking about a withdrawal that can last years at a time, literally. I’m at 15 months and 19 days. That is 476 days. That is 685, 440 minutes. And I’m not even finished… Continue reading What a Year Looks Like

15 Months TSW (Red Skin Syndrome)

May 2, 2016 brianarachelle234 Comments

Hey guys! Sorry, I am a bit late with this post. I was on a cruise (woot!) so I was not near wi-fi. Can you believe it? I went on a Caribbean cruise, in the sun, all day! Well, I was covered up from head to toe (with a lovely flappy hat), but a year… Continue reading 15 Months TSW (Red Skin Syndrome)

It’s Not About the Good Days

April 18, 2016April 18, 2016 brianarachelle232 Comments

When it comes to living with Red Skin Syndrome, going through withdrawal can be the most exhausting, unpredictable journey. You are not in control. You have taken the backseat and bravely allowed the withdrawal process to steer blindly towards that ever distant light you wish to reach. I am in month 14 of this process,… Continue reading It’s Not About the Good Days

14 Months TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal)

March 26, 2016July 25, 2016 brianarachelle235 Comments

Hello all x I know I usually post every two weeks about my progress but I didn’t feel there was much change in my skin. I am now in the truly limbo area of my withdrawal. I was a performer before this happened and am now trying to get back into that performer shape, though… Continue reading 14 Months TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal)
