Do you think she’s lying about her medical condition?! 💧💦💧💦

I recently came across this woman on Instagram named Tessa who claims to have an incredibly rare water allergy as well as various mental health issues. Aquagenic urticaria is what she claims to be diagnosed with, says she can’t drink water even but lives solely off of whole milk and only bathes maybe twice a year. She takes a lot of aesthetic photos of herself, says she can’t work because she is allergic to her own sweat, and says she needs about 15 hours of sleep every day.

I did some research on the illness she claims and it’s so rare that WebMD says there have only been about 100 documented cases worldwide.

This woman’s posts are so incredibly dramatic if you check her out. She posted recently that she “took a walk” outside and was so exhausted from it that she took a six hour nap. She complains constantly on her stories that the government doesn’t pay her enough for her disability so she sells things on Instagram (like paid sponsorships to be an Influencer).

I started thinking this girl sounds like she’s completely full of shit. She does appear to get rashes and from what I’ve read, the mind, especially minds with anxiety, can absolutely cause a rash.

To be honest, I’m thinking this girl psyches herself out so much with the fear that she’s allergic to water that when she gets near water, she has panic attacks and causes herself the rashes. Her rashes could also be caused by the fact she literally doesn’t bathe or ever go out into the sun because she’s scared to sweat. It all just sounds like 100% anxiety and mental illness to me.

What do you think?
