Are Your Eczema Symptoms Indicative Of Your Deeper Emotional Problems?

Filed Under Eczema Trauma | 7 Comments

I’ve been told by my various friends who are into wellness that [tag-dtec]eczema[/tag-dtec] can be indicative of deeper emotional problems. 

If you have [tag-tec]eczema[/tag-tec], do these observations sound familiar to you?

- Intimacy problems i.e. fear of intimacy?
- Are you isolating yourself and why?
- Do you have communication or relationship problems?
- Are there areas of contact and communication that irritate you?
- Do you have heightened sensitivities to certain issues or someone?

If you believe so, then getting to your emotional issues can actually “cure” your [tag-ice]eczema[/tag-ice].  To address emotional issues, there are a number of holistic therapies you can use: homeopathy, EFT (emotional freedom technique) or ayurvedic herbal remedies to help balance your doshas. Since I would be exploring more into these therapies myself, I will be posting more about these when I have new insights.

Feeling Blue About Your Eczema?

Filed Under Eczema Trauma | Leave a Comment

Do you feel depressed and embarassed about your eczema condition?

If you do, then you are not alone. I do too. At the moment, I am going through one of my worst eczema outbreak. Well, of course, the volcanic flare up is also due to the treatment that I make myself go through. Nevertheless, it is eczema the same.

In the past, I had been happy to show off more of my legs in between flare ups. But not since a few months back. With a full blown eczema going on now, I am forced to wear pants to cover my legs up sufficiently whenever I go out. Also, I prefer to stay at home as I feel particularly self conscious.

Do I feel blue about my eczema? Sadly yes. My husband tells me to look at things positively. He says that I should be grateful as I have not lost my legs or am going through something worse. He is right. That cheered me up somewhat.
