Journal Entry for July 21, 2007 Mood
Saturday, July 21, 2007
Well went grocery shopping today and it was boiling outside and now i'm back home can't stop scratching! I'm starting to flair again. Think it must have been the pollen. I can't win allergic to pollen outside and house dustmites indoors. Wish i could reach a happy medium! The itching is driving me nuts but trying not to stress too much. Feel okay today as know things could be a lot worse. Had a bad panic attack last night that lasted an hour. The stress and eczema feed into each other in a viscious circle. Am praying i get myself well soon and my skin gets easier. Today was the first day i've been out in over a week and half/two weeks with the eczema. I know what everyone means with the eczema making you a hermit. The longest i've been indoors with a flair up was for five months. I was having such a bad flair up everywhere that i felt like i'd been burnt, i had an infection and my mum had to help feed and dress me i was in so much pain. For 5 months i couldn't get out of bed. It's this that helps me know things could be a lot worse and i'm grateful that although i'm uncomfortable things aren't that bad :-)
