TSW weeks 2-5

These 3 weeks have been a roller coaster. One day Id wake up better then worst. I cut my nails really short so I wouldn't cut my skin. But the itch was so intense that I looked for things to scratch with such as hair brushes. OUCH!! yes I know but you get so desperate. I would scratch and it felt so good until I bled and right after comes the pain and the thought "why would I do that?" I tried desitin on my arms and back and thighs but unlike the face it rubs off easily on other parts of the body so it didn't do much for me. I've tried Vaseline aloe lotion and jergans ultra healing. I was a peeling mess. My arms where always flaking and they hurt so much. Theres flakes all over the bed on the couch in pillows its so nasty. My face one day looks ok the next its extremely dry then itchy then it has cuts. My skin is so bipolar.

The swelling in my eyes has got down quite a bit but my skin is so red I look like I have rosacea. I can no longer sleep :( I lay down but I find myself awake till sometimes 12 in the afternoon the next day. If I sleep its only like an hour or two then I wake up. Ive tried zzzquill and it didn't help. I also tried ambien and that was no help. I even bought melatonin supplements which is suppose to make you sleepy and after taking it 4 days saw no results.
