I have a different condition, but I gave up on topical steroids years ago. What you are describing, the rebound effect, from them essentially defeats the purpose of using them, in my opinion. The longer you use them the more damaging they become causing one to require long breaks, which again, often makes things worse/futile. Though in my case, I was flaring back up in a matter of a week or two, not months.
