5 Problems Only Visible Eczema Sufferers Go Through

'Have you been out in the sun too long? Your skin is super red and looks like it's beginning to peel' - Everyone

No I'm not fucking burnt. Unlike most people it doesn't take four hours in the sun to look like a freakish human beetroot. My skin is naturally, red, inflamed and dry. And when I don't apply enough cream it just starts to flake off. So please think before you call someone burnt, they might just have eczema.

2. 2. Mockery

'Hey Bro, did you survive a nuclear holocaust? Because you look like a Ghoul from the Fallout game franchise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 HAHAHAHAH' - Pricks

Fuck off. Us 'Ghouls' have feelings too. Just because you're a smooth skin doesn't give you the right to insult me. Please try and be a bit more sympathetic to or plight before you say something cruel.

3. 3. Getting the right medication

All eczema sufferers try as hard as they can to get rid of their affliction, this means that within each one of their cupboards lies a whole array of lotions and potions to fix their lizard-like skin. Most of these are bullshit, and there's only one thing we're really after. That sweet sweet Betnovate. So fuck off doc. take back you're diprobase and eumovate and give me the real deal. Don't waste my time with these chip moisturisers, I want something that will melt of my dead flakey skin, I want BETNOVATE.

4. 4. No Love Life

At the end of the day who is really going to want to kiss someone, where when you do flakes of their skin fall into your mouth. Eczema is disgusting, nobody wants a flaker. Still, it doesn't stop people from mistaking the eczema on my neck for a hickey. Condescending pricks.

5. 4. Dandruff

If having freakishly dry skin wasn't enough. Eczema also results in one of the other most socially embarrassing health issues. Yep, don't worry our scalps are just as dry as our skin. So while we also have the skin of a lizard, we also have the hair of a snowy white mountaintop. If anyone ruffles our hair, there's a delightful winter blizzard of dry dead skin. What a life.
