So, what actually happened with that whole mess? I can't be bothered to read through everything right now... Did he just snap out of nowhere, or did someone finally push him too far?
I’m finally getting my hands on the treatment soon. It’s been driving me crazy this morning knowing it’s sitting right there in New York City. I’ve been checking in with my guy to make sure he calls me so I can swing by and pick it up. I was just talking to him, too—honestly, I’m just praying this actually works since nothing else seems to be doing the trick lately. I think I’ll snap a few photos for you guys to see, though I’m not exactly the type to show off sensitive areas...😁 I guess hope and faith really do pay off eventually.
Well, there you have it—that ointment actually worked for my little one. It’s a shame that what works for one person doesn't necessarily work for everyone else, but at least it isn't just snake oil. I’m currently using Psorex myself, which I pick up over in Little Rock. Even though it helped me before, it isn't clearing the skin on my hands right now; the redness is still pretty glaring. When I get worked up or stressed, things take a turn for the worse—I get this massive itch across my back and legs that gets so intense I end up scratching myself raw. Trust me, it isn't ideal. And yeah, God knows it’s expensive. No one will tell you that because you're selling a product, but honestly, if you want to help people, you can't just give it away for free when you have a family to support and bills to pay. Giving up a little money for it isn't an issue for me. The main thing is that it helps as many people as possible. 👍
Honestly, I don't see much point in any of this. It’s absurd—you go to the doctor, they tell you to watch your diet, yet every single day your meal plan is just piles of processed meat and sugary jams that you're supposedly supposed to avoid. They lack any real sense of seriousness if their actual goal is to help people. Michael Ramos3, I have a feeling someone is going to take advantage of you. They'll take your remedy, claim it as their own, and you'll be left kicking yourself once you realize you were just used. If I were in your shoes, I’d never touch something like this unless my primary motivation was profit. And for these companies, it definitely is.
Naphtha feels more like a hyped-up gimmick to me than an actual cure. I personally didn't see any real results, and frankly, it was way too expensive for what it does. Whatever you do, don't go racking up credit card debt just to come here; if you treat this place like a quick fix, it'll treat you the same way. Maybe give what Michael Ramos3 is doing a shot and we'll see how it plays out. After years of trying every remedy under the sun, you’d think we'd be over it, but you never really know—hope is a stubborn thing.
Always stay skeptical; that's just how it works. I’m not sure which of the new accounts you’re targeting, but if you’re grouping me in with them, let me clear the air: I’ve been lurking here for a while now, I just haven't felt the need to post. If you think there’s some grand conspiracy happening—where someone whispers a rumor and we all go out looking for trouble—you're mistaken. We aren't kids, and this isn't a playground. Honestly, 😉Gregory Mendoza3's idea regarding that project makes sense to me, though it might be a bit too ambitious for right now. We really should focus more on advising one another and building some actual trust, maybe even through meetups for those of us living in the same region. We aren't children anymore, and this forum shouldn't be a place where we obsess over trivial nonsense like whether some local politician is stepping down...
Michael Ramos3, stop focusing on all those regulations and legal hoops you have to jump through just to help someone. A corporation’s goal isn't to get people healed; it's to keep them in a cycle of treatment so they can keep paying forever. Forget about their stuff. If you have your own remedy—something you didn't cook up in some factory and don't need a government commission to approve—you can distribute it your way and actually help the people who need it. It reminds me of that story about a guy I heard once, an old German man whose last name escapes me, who could heal people without any medicine at all. There were thousands of them, but the authorities and the doctors hated it because he wasn't charging a dime; he truly believed God had destined him to do it. Giving anything to these profiteers is completely illogical, much like every regulation, law, and this whole damn government system. If your remedy works, that's a fact. You don't need validation from some corporate money-grabber. Tell them where to go. 😁 👍
Octopus, I think I should just post a photo so we can see how things look. It might help stop some people from making a huge drama over just a few spots. Personally, I'm doing alright. I’ve noticed that if I don't shave, I can actually see the hair growth patterns on my neck area too. Things are looking best since I started using that T-gel a few months back and switched to shorter hair. For me, the worst areas have been my back and legs, with a few spots on my stomach and arms. I'll upload a photo so you guys can see. Joshua Allen54, since you managed to clear yours up, the least you could do is tell us exactly how you did it so others can try. Send me that contact info you had deleted from your DMs. And Healed, you're always talking about that ointment of yours but you never give any specifics on where or when we can actually get it—you won't even reply to my DMs.
Look, the entire pharmaceutical industry survives because people are constantly finding something wrong with their health. I’m not entirely sure what this Googo guy actually does, other than citing some source from overseas—though it looks like someone went ahead and wiped his references anyway. It's not like these herbalists are doing it out of pure charity either; we have our own issues here, and while they might offer some help, they clearly want to make a buck too. That’s just how society works—it's all about the bottom line and finding the easiest way to turn a profit.
I don't think you realize how much damage you're doing by constantly switching up your creams and ointments; you're going to wreck your skin barrier at this rate. Also, maybe cut back on the coffee a bit.😁
People get hung up on the aesthetics because they act like if it doesn't look "perfect," nothing else matters. They think you should just be happy you don't have arthritis or something else, as if having skin issues isn't its own struggle. Self-pity won't get you anywhere, though we all have to deal with it at some point, whether it's psoriasis or something else entirely. You always have to try to fix the problem, but when you look back at how many years you've spent trying different treatments without any real success, that's what can really start to wear you down. Still, hope dies last. You just have to stay tough.
Cut out the coffee. You can laugh without it, and honestly, it’s probably doing you more harm than good. Not everyone handles this stuff the way you do, either; I wish more people could react like you, but people are unpredictable and can be incredibly draining. Dealing with this in our age group is definitely easier than it is for a 15 or 18-year-old—we’ve had time to adapt, whereas they’re just walking right into it. The biggest frustration is the lack of actual, concrete support. What wipes one person out might not affect someone else at all, and some things can have a purely negative impact on certain people. Ideally, we should all try to stay calmer about it, but I completely get why it gets under someone's skin and consumes them. That was me once. Maybe it's even tougher for you women than it is for us men. That's why you need to find your own distractions—hobbies or whatever keeps you relaxed—so you can forget about it and stop wasting your energy on nothing.
What’s there to "accept" about this life when you know there’s always something out there that might actually help? Honestly, things get easier as you age. When I was just finishing middle school and heading into high school, being an eighteen-year-old guy back then, things were genuinely rough. Even now, there are moments where everything just feels like too much—watching people make conscious, reckless choices to drown themselves in booze or drugs while you're stuck dealing with this mess and can't shake it. Still, I have to admit that having something like this makes you think about life differently than most people would. I try to remember that there are much worse things than Psoriasis. I often think about people who are blind, deaf, or spend their entire lives in a wheelchair... we can see, hear, and walk perfectly fine; it's just this one little thing that trips us up sometimes. I don't really talk about it with anyone. My whole family knows because my parents made it public when I was a kid, so I didn't exactly have a choice in the matter. A few friends outside the family know too, but it's one of those things that stays unspoken. Some things are better kept to yourself; I don't feel the need to broadcast it since I don't gain or lose anything by mentioning it.
Life is empty without kids; all that money is useless without them.
That’s a pretty weak and baseless take. I’ll be 25 before I know it, and marriage isn't even on my radar, let alone having children. To me, a family is just a man and a woman; kids are essentially a bonus—and sometimes a pretty bad one at that. 😬 Some people simply aren't built for parenthood, yet society forces the idea on you. From the moment you're an embryo, the script is already written: daycare, school, puberty, college, career, marriage, kids, grandparents, and then you slowly fade away. It's more important to spend your life doing something meaningful; whether or not you have kids is a personal choice. Most people just play out the roles assigned to them, and this societal pressure to prove you're a "serious adult" by starting a family feels pathetic. If you aren't married or don't have kids, you're treated like some sort of outlier who doesn't fit in. I've been developing my own philosophy since I was 13. Even with minor shifts through my teens and early twenties, my core beliefs haven't changed much. I don't feel called to be someone's uncle or a husband according to these social blueprints. Honestly, the whole concept of legalized marriage seems a bit silly to me. We could conclude that families are basically mini-states: they have members, hierarchies, budgets, obligations, and taxes that become mandatory after years of living together. Since I'm generally against government overreach and imposed institutions, I can't see myself forming a family right now. When a family is forced upon you, even if you chose the individuals, you're obligated to love and protect them. Personally, I value my relationships with friends and partners much more because those are choices I make, not things tied to tradition. You have to love your grandmother because she's your blood, but you can walk away from a friend whenever you want since there's no biological tie. In my view, shared values matter far more than shared DNA. Besides, there are so many neglected kids in the world who need love and care, yet people are often hypocritical and selfish. Why bring more kids into the world when there are already children out there needing homes? Is the person who birthed them really more important than someone who chooses to love an adopted child? What does it matter if a kid shares blood with an uncle who treats them poorly?
Look, the real issue with Psoriasis isn't actually the skin, even though that’s where it shows up. The problem is internal—it's in your system, specifically your liver and blood. When things aren't running right on the inside, it manifests on the outside. Period. Because of that, I wouldn't touch anything processed. No canned goods, no deli meats, no sweets, no acidic fruits, and honestly, don't overdo the fruit in general. Skip the sausages, pork, nuts, eggs, ice cream... basically, stay away from anything fried or roasted. Stick to boiled foods if you have to. It’s a massive shift from what most people eat when they aren't dealing with this crap. You should be eating fish, chicken, beef, and vegetables, though you still have to be careful—don't go overboard on things like beets, for instance. I have a specific list written down somewhere, but that's the gist of it. I’ve been drinking a custom tea blend lately. There was a period where I stopped, and everything flared right back up. For my hair, I use T-Gel, which keeps it mostly fine. One tip: keep your hair short. It’s hard to make any progress when your skin can't breathe under long hair. I also take a natural honey blend that helps detox the body. The priority is cleaning out your system; once the inside is clear, the skin follows. Those steroid creams like Beloderm or similar stuff don't solve much besides thinning out and damaging your skin. Beloderm helped me slightly, but I use it very sparingly. I also use a natural salve and take a teaspoon of that honey three times a day before meals. It worked for me two years ago, so I’m confident it’ll work again now.
