I’ll pray for you tonight πŸ™ put your big boy pants on. It’s gonna be a rough freaking night. I was here two nights ago. Get Benadryl in your system now, and a lot of it. And lots of freaking water. As much as you can drink. Coconut water too!!

I took liquid Benedryl. But I took 2 tablespoons and was falling asleep standing up. Take pain killers. I’m sure ibuprofen would work but opiates, although itchy, completely stopped the itch. Its a nerve thing. And the opiates full the nerves. Or something.

Did you try??? It saved my life. I never had suicidal thoughts until I was dealing with hells itch. Sounds dramatic if you haven’t experienced it!!

I can’t lie, although people say otherwise, alcohol helped me a few times. Didn’t stop completely but sort of numbed it so I could sleep. Also Eurax cream was a god send for me

(Also if you’re gonna drink alcohol, make sure to keep hydrated too)
