How can I repair a drywall ceiling seam in the bathroom?

The seams are peeling from steam from shower. Any suggestions on repairing, as replacing isn't an option right now

    I was going to suggest the same, I've done it. Some of the textures you put back on don't match but you an play with it with a putty knife. If you still have the color for the ceiling you can paint that and blend it to the rest of the ceiling without painting the whole thing. I have found a gloss enamel to hold up better to steam and it's pretty easy to add a fan even if you vent it into the attic.

    I agree with Alice, have fun with the texture so that it doesn't matter if it matches perfectly, good luck!
