Topical Steroid Withdrawal.

I never imagined myself to be writing something of this nature.

I’ve been chronically ill for over two years now and I’m gradually dissipating, each week becoming harder than the last. There is no help or funding through the NHS. I have been poisoned from every type of medication they’ve administered me - each coupled with more intense side effects. I’m at a point now where I’m bed bound AGAIN for the second time in 6 months. I receive nothing from the government due to TSW not being officially recognised by the health care industry.

I‘ve been utterly robbed of my life, my identity and all purpose. I’ve been forced into social isolation for over a year and don’t leave the house due to my appearance, I can’t be out in sunlight in accordance to all the medication I’ve had over the last couple of years. I live such a miserable existence and I’ve finally accepted that I aren’t able to do this on my own - I can’t exist like this anymore and this why I’ve created this go fund me. I am in absolute desperation - I have a partner and little girl, they both need me and at this moment in time I’m absolutely useless to both of them. Whether it’s a penny, a pound or even just sharing this to get the message as far and wide as possible - as a family we appreciate any help whatsoever.

We will be exercising some fund raiser events such as sponsored walks/hikes, charity boxing, football and darts in the near future and invite all to participate and try and raise as much money and awareness as possible. Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope to see you at one of our upcoming events.
