Yo, I am Jared

Hey!

I am a 23 year old from Australia. I have had psoriasis under my arms and on my hairline since 2015, but as of last week (25/3/18) I was officially diagnosed with psoriasis after a flare-up.
I have it on my hairline, behind my ears, scalp, on my eye lid and now under my eyes.

I am self conscious about it, despite it being relatively minor, I am doing well-ish to keep it under control with 1% corticosteroids. 

Outside of Psoriasis I am working for one of Australias biggest utilities in their innovation department and am studying a masters of entrepreneurship.

Hi and welcome to the club, you have found probably the friendliest Psoriasis forum on the planet. I’m sorry to hear you have Psoriasis on your face, I have had it there myself and it does make you self conscious, it’s good you have got it under control.
Have a good look around the site there is lots of information on treatments and diets that can help, if you have a question or can’t find something just shout and someone will soon answer
Living in Australia do you find the sun helps ? As UV is good for Psoriasis
