Your Body Is Speaking
Small purple-coloured spots appear on your skin. Not a rash, no itching — but tiny bleeds that become visible beneath the surface. As if your body were bleeding from the inside out, without any external injury having taken place. The skin that is meant to protect you suddenly shows what lies beneath it: blood escaping where it should not escape. Vessels that have become permeable. A system that can no longer hold its own boundaries.
