In GLAMOUR's Self-Love Skin Special, Aby Coulibaly, a musician from Dublin, is determined to lift the lid on Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW).
GLAMOUR’s fourth annual Self-Love Special is here. This year we’re honouring women who use their platforms to shine a spotlight on misunderstood skin conditions and to celebrate their unique beauty. “I remember having a conversation with my mum about doing interviews, or people taking pictures when I’m performing,' musician Aby Coulibaly tells me from her bedroom over Zoom. Her mum was concerned about how she'd feel if her Topical Steroid Withdrawl was visible.
“After that, I’ll be going through it.” Withdrawal can be brutal. “My mum is probably going to have to nurse me,” Aby reveals. “You need someone to make you food or to take your bed sheets and shake them off because you're shedding so much, or you can't bend your limbs,” she says. “And I'm trying to make sure I'm in a good position financially before then, in case I can’t work.” It’s a difficult journey to come to terms with. “I have a career and I want it to take off.
