Feeling discouraged and confused
Post Body

I moved into a new apartment that’s mostly carpeted in March and didn’t have any issues for a while. I haven’t had a bad flare up in years so I didn’t even think about how my eczema could be triggered. Now, throughout the whole summer, I’ve been having the worst flare ups of my life all over my neck and face to the point where my eyelids are so red that it looks like I have a black eye. I’m not sure if it’s from the apartment but I don’t know what else it could be. I’m so embarrassed and discouraged, and it’s really affecting my self-esteem. I’m also a fitness coach on the side, which means I can’t even hide from people. I’ve tried tacrolimus ointment but it causes a lot of itching and burning, so my dermatologist prescribed opzelura but it didn’t get approved by my insurance. I’m not sure what else to do because I just moved into this place, and I otherwise really like it. But I haven’t been able to look at myself in the mirror and like what I see for quite a while now, and I know that’s not good for my mental health. Any advice or words of encouragement welcome.
