I would like to say the struggle I have faced the most is the lack of poc in the healthcare system … I feel disconnected and disregarded but still hopeful and I give grace because it’s new I just think familiarity still matters

The hardest part of having HS for me as a person of color is not only the scarring, but the constant Nerve pain, that I have to deal with on a daily basis.

@A myHSteam Member That feeling of isolation and fear of being judged can be so heavy to carry, especially when HS symptoms are misunderstood. You deserve to be surrounded by people who see you and not just the condition. 💛 There are many here who understand that worry about odor and the emotional toll it takes—you’re not alone in this space. How have you been coping with those feelings day to day?

Lonely, depression and no friends. Scared they're going to tell I stink.
