just a vent
hi all,
ive been recently dealing with a recurring bout of hives that have now since been labelled chronic. ive battled this in the past, and this episode is at around 7.5 weeks and shows no signs of stopping. my mental health has taken a massive toll because of it, since it is a skin condition that is pretty rare since hives are almost never chronic.
ive recently been back for break from college, and me and my fam have been really tense about medications and things. im currently on only one zyrtec a day which i know is not enough to control my flares, but my mom is very against me taking two due to it being up from the maximum adult dose. i know two helps me since ive done it before, but i cant exactly go against her since ik shes just trying to look out for me. however, my skin is currently doing worse, and its really taking a toll.
i just needed to get this off my chest, since its been really impacting me in the last few minutes.
