One thing I spoke about at the Allergy & Free From Show was how important it is to build your self-worth outside of the internet first 🤍
When you live with a visible condition like eczema, anxiety and loss of control can become such a huge part of daily life. For me, therapy and CBT were life-changing. Learning coping mechanisms during my hardest flare periods didn’t just help me navigate my skin—they helped me navigate life.
People often assume social media always damages mental health, but honestly, one of the best things to come out of sharing my journey online has been my mental health improving massively. Finding community, feeling understood, and realising I wasn’t alone changed everything for me.
It was especially meaningful having these conversations during
Not every flare needs to become content. Not every difficult moment needs to be shared immediately. But there is something incredibly powerful about finding people who truly understand what you’re carrying.
Thank you to everyone who came to our talk at The Skin Hub alongside 💚
