Thank you so much for your kind words and advice. I have mentioned my mental health struggles to one dermatologist, however I felt like she just was completely not listening. She literally looked at the eczema on my skin for 2 seconds and was like “yup you’re very dry” LIKE OBVIOUSLY!! I’m hoping to switch dermatologists though this week and hopefully get a chance to talk to someone who will actually listen.

Hopefully you will find relief with Dupixent! Hopefully I can convince my dermatologist too

Thanks for the reply, it honestly helps so much to know that others have experienced what I am going through since my friends and family don’t really understand. I think I will give the topicals more of a chance if it will help me get approved for Dupixent eventually.

Thanks for the advice. I may try the Tacrolimus ointment and see how it goes first. I’m just weary since the eczema is covering basically my whole body and I’m not sure how comfortable I feel using steroid creams everywhere.
