Living with Hydra conveys true stories of patients who suffer from the autoimmune disease hidradenitis suppurativa; a rare and intrusive health condition that weakens the body and the mind. Commonly kept as a secret by the patient as it causes severe discomfort, pain, humiliation, self-esteem, and depression issues. This is a recollection of experiences, thoughts, and raw feelings, in hope of making awareness and breaking the stigma about this incurable disease.
