Legit question for anyone who has a water softener - are they worth it?

Our town has very hard water, and this year more than any other, my skin is ridiculously dry and itchy.

I have been scratching so bad during the night that I wake up with dried blood and deep gauges everywhere I can reach. And now that I have purchased a back scratcher, I am bleeding in places I couldn't before reach.

Cortisone 10 cream helps localized spots (like my shins), but I would need a tube/day if I slathered it head to toe. P.S. - there is no rash, or bite marks, so I'm quite sure it's no worse than severe dry skin.

I did a little online research, so I know how water softeners work, what they cost, how much room I need, etc.
What I want now is personal opinion - yea or nay?
This may be unique to me, but, I found that a very light coat of Hydrocortisone Cream works way better then massive amounts applied. I'm talking very, very light coat of it. So little that you are sure it will do no good and its presence seems to disappear within seconds of application. A small tube can last for months. I'm not sure why applying too much is counterproductive, but it sure seems to work that way for me.

We have a water softener. My skin never seems to get dry, aside from my hands in the depths of a harsh winter. But other than that, everyone seems to think I have super soft skin.
What you have is young skin. Believe me your time will come. I never had dry skin until I was about 60 years old.

We haven't gotten anymore flavors in yet besides vanilla and chocolate, And I think those are made here in Alabama.
Didn't they just have to shut down all their plants recently due to unsanitary conditions or contaminated Ice Cream. I think it was found in a number of their facilities.

Yes...that was last year...they closed ALL their plants and are still catching back up to full production.
