for life with eczema and TSW
What is Eczema?
Eczema is an umbrella term for chronic, inflammatory skin conditions characterized by itchiness, redness, cracking, and sensitivity. Beyond the physical symptoms, eczema can shape daily routines, confidence, and how someone moves through the world.
Wait, so what is TSW?
Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) is a debilitating drug withdrawal from topical steroids, a common treatment for eczema. Despite its severity, awareness and recognition are still growing, leaving many to navigate it without clear guidance or support.
❋
Living with eczema or TSW can feel isolating, but you don't have to navigate it alone. Find safe spaces, meet new friends and feel supported.

This fund is specifically for anyone actively living through the symptoms and challenges of Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW). It is open to people of any gender, any age and from anywhere in the world.

For those going through TSW, life doesn’t pause. Many people in the thick of withdrawal face not just the physical agony, but the emotional and financial devastation that comes with it.
People lose jobs.
People leave school.
People walk away from careers, social lives, and dreams — not because they want to, but because their bodies demand all their energy just to get through to the next day.For so many, TSW turns life into survival mode. The only priority becomes resting, healing, and enduring. But while skin is trying to recover, bills still come. Rent is due. Food needs to be bought. Medications need to be paid for. It’s exhausting, and the stress of financial insecurity only makes healing harder.
In the community, we often say, “We’re in this together.”
This fund is a reflection of that — a real, actionable way to show that our community supports one another through the hardest moments of this journey.

In 2023, an artist experiencing TSW began to draw skin positive drawings. What started as a way to cope has grown into a space for creativity, connection, and meaningful advocacy.
