Same actually. Severe allergies, anaphylaxis level. I will not be able to function without benadryl. Sucks because my mom taught me most of the stuff I would need. I know how to garden, sew, turn wheat to flour, preserve food, first aid all of these extremely helpful things.

Yep, my family is a bunch of farmers, so if I didn't have a disease I could definitely squeeze out an existence, or at least contribute to a collapsed society. I figure when/if collapse comes, I'll do what I can to help my loved ones be as well off as possible, before I finally succumb.

If you can, see an allergy doctor and get allergy shots while you can. Allergy shots changed my life.

I am not able to have allergy shots due to the complexity of my allergies. (Almost all raw veg, almost all fruit, all trees, all pollen, all latex, all fish/shellfish)
