1 week in... no change. Vent

Full body except the face.

I don't know how y'all manage. I'm miserable and depressed and I've only had this condition around 7 days so far. It's seriously one hell of a psychological battle/challenge. I've gone through all kinda stages ... denial, anger, despair... the relentless itching is enough to edge me toward psychosis. I can't believe I had never even heard of this before, now it's stealing my life. Socially, I feel like a leper. I can't go out without covering wrist to ankles - in August no less. I barely sleep and can't work (my job is in the sun and very physical, I can't take the constant abrasion and sweat between clothes and skin).

I seriously had no idea of the hell people w this condition go through daily.

Are all first break-outs this bad?

What project would you make with this?

I've got 5 skeins of this lovely navy-blue cotton blend.... I'd like to make a garment of some kind. Could use some inspo!

Please help... full body hives, I literally can't sleep

This happened after I got a bad case of wild parsnip rash. The hives started around the rash area and spread. It's been 4 days since it started on my belly, it's spreading rapidly. Full arms, legs, buttocks, torso, neck -only place left is my face.

Every night there's more. I've been popping every over the counter antihistamine,, anti itch and cortisone creams, aloe, nothing touches it. The only thing that gives me temporary relief is ice packs, as soon as i take them off it goes right back to itching like crazy.

I'm so embarrassed and upset, I don't want to go out as it's all over my arms and neck. Terrified my face is next.

I've never experienced this before.

Trying to set up Dr appointment as soon as I can

I'm scared and I don't know what to expect. I'm in Canada, if that helps

First repaint

I wanted to give her a slightly darker make-up look and give her golden-brown eyes instead of the generic blue. Next time I need a magnifying glass for sure!!!!! It was a little terrifying 😳

My first watercolor - dollar store paints 😅

I love how accessible watercolor is! I'm broke af right now, but I picked up a couple of paint sets and some thick paper all for under $10.

Really excited to learn more

Its got 3 hides, she likes the center one best 🥰 I wanted it to look as natural as possible so I sourced all the wood and stones myself (don't worry I disinfected everything)
