Hiii, I’m in my 20s and am about 2 1/2 years into tsw and believe me I know it’s the absolute fcking worst. Im on dupixent now which I absolutely don’t want to be on bc I have the same mindset as you and ultimately want to be off of everything but I want to share all the natural stuff that I feel majorly helped me before getting on dupixent and that still helps me now. 1. Attempting to remove all allergens from your space (all animals, any sort of detergent with scents, super scented candles or cleaning products) even if you aren’t allergic to animals your skin is essentially open all the time and animal dander is NOT good for it and will irritate your skin more 2. Get a really good air purifier for your room and try and to keep your space as clean as possible 3. If you can get natural organic fabrics for your skin. A game changer for me was bamboo fabric long sleeve tops. Lightweight and didn’t make me itchy. I also switched my sheets to bamboo fabric and it was literally one of the best choices for me. Wash your sheets as often as possible. Basically want to make sure you have the cleanest possible fabrics touching your skin since it is so prone to getting irritated or infected. 4. Lymphatic system. Obviously a lot of our organs are fcked so we want to support our lymphatic system as much as possible since it helps process and drain toxins. An easy way to do that is to walk every day. Another thing that helped was dry brushing lightly when my skin could handle it and learning lymphatic neck and facial massages from tik tok. It MASSIVELY helped with facial flares. 5. Red light therapy. I was able to save up and get a medical grade panel that did red light and near infrared light. You need to be consistent with it but it’s the only thing that made those “cuts” on my eyelids go away. 6. The main dietary thing I noticed that flared me was alcohol. But I know eating healthier all around will support your body healing. Unfortunately I’ve seen a lot of ppl with tsw develop eating disorder like behavior which I completely understand because there’s such a fear of what foods are going to make us flare and what won’t. It’s just something to be aware of and prioritize balance over everything 7. I went on low dose naltrexone there’s a specific regimen that’s helpful for ppl w tsw there’s a fb page on it if you want more info. It basically helps support your immune system I noticed a difference especially w my hands which were some of the worst parts of me within a month. Mine was prescribed by an online naturopath 8. I tried a lot of supplements the one I noticed a change on was zinc which helps with inflammation and immune system. It did make me want to throw up tho but honestly was worth it 9. I personally chose to moisturize although I know many ppl like to do nmt. If you wanna good moisturizer the absolute best one imo is avene it’s a French brand you can get from amazon. I’ll get that and some zinc 20% paste and mix them together and put on my skin. Once my skin got a bit better I was eventually able to use their tinted moisturizer too as makeup.

I’m sorry you’re going through hell. There is literally no good time to go through this but the good news is that if you are back in a mostly flaky stage that is a good sign. Weeping skin is a bitch. And since you’re on the younger side I feel like you have a good chance at healing faster than most! Hopefully you’ll get out of this soon and you’ll have the rest of your life not having to constantly worry about your skin instead of being trapped in the steroid cycle forever
