Hello Jo to Psoriasis club.
Not much I can add to what the others have already said, apart from have a look at this thread NICE Quality Standards for Psoriasis it may help.
As for it effecting your confidence, it will do that and I'm sure all of us here at one time or another have felt the same. It is with you now for life, but it can be managed so the sooner you see an NHS dermatologist the better.
It's easy for me to say don't let it get you down, but learning to accept it and sharing how you feel with those close to you will help.
Plus now you have found us you will find a very friendly bunch always willing to listen and offer support where they can. To help take your mind off things pop along to the [Group Specific] board I'm sure you will find something to interest you, if not just start talking and others will soon chip in.
Whatever happens we are here and always will be.
Regards.
Fred.
